"Sketches Of Us". AI-Generated.
Maya had always been fiercely independent. Diagnosed with muscular dystrophy in her teens, she learned early on how to navigate a world not designed for her. Her wheelchair didn’t slow her down—it was part of her rhythm, her freedom. From navigating uneven sidewalks to rerouting through inaccessible buildings, she met life head-on, sketchpad always within reach. As a freelance illustrator, she found solace and inspiration in the little moments—particularly those spent sketching in the park near her apartment in Seattle.

They Said No Strings—But Their Hearts Never Agreed
They thought they'd found the perfect solution: no strings, no drama, just comfort in each other’s arms.

The Disorder Between Us
It all started when I broke up with Alpha. I got into a new relationship within just 4 months, which was a huge mistake as I did not complete the lessons that I should have learned from my relationship with Alpha. This new boyfriend I would call him Zen. We were best friends from class 9 and when I reached class 11 I had a break up with Alpha and Zen had his chance with me. He was the sweetest boyfriend ever. Yes, we broke up but the way he treated me the whole time was magical. No one can ever adore me the way he did. He treated me like a literal baby. He would do just anything to impress me and make me happy. In the process, I got spoiled and messed things up, somehow I had some mental problems where the symptoms were very dangerous.

In Conversation with Janeilla Burns
Janeilla Burns—better known to her fans as Androtta—doesn’t so much enter a room as she radiates into it: equal parts starlet and soul-sifter, with the kind of voice that makes you feel like the two of you could be forever 21 together. She writes. She composes. She sings like she’s bleeding glitter. And in the quiet between choruses, she tells the truth.

The Morning I Missed the Bus—and Found My Way Instead
The Morning I Missed the Bus—and Found My Way Instead I was 17, late for school, and flying down the block in the middle of winter with half-frozen hair and a burnt piece of toast in my mouth. Classy. The yellow school bus came around the corner just as I was reaching the stop. I waved frantically, breath clouding in the air, but the driver didn't see. Perhaps he did, and just decided it was too late.

Tethered to the Other Side
--- I was standing at the end of the hallway, just outside the bedroom where she died, holding the locket she gave me, as tightly as I could, hoping it might tether her soul long enough for one last goodbye. She would’ve turned twenty-one next month; I had just turned twenty-two. I stood there, paralyzed, as the candlelight flickered unnaturally in the corner of the room. I didn’t know how to explain the cold that rolled through the hallway or the way the air thickened like fog. Forty-eight hours ago, we had danced in the field behind my house beneath a moon so full it lit her eyes like stars. Now, those eyes stared from photographs, still warm with memory. The priest had just finished the rites, but the house hadn’t let her go. Not completely. It had only been ten days since she whispered to me that the shadows were watching. Ten days from butterflies in her stomach to frost in her veins. When the clock in the hall stopped ticking, it marked not just the end of her life—but the beginning of something neither of us could name. This was the breach, the splinter between worlds, when love refused to leave even as death came knocking.

Butterflies and Bruises
In 2021, I fell in love for the first time with my childhood crush. I will call him Alpha through the whole series. I never expected him to take notice of me until he confessed that he too liked me . We started talking and sharing everything we possibly could. He was a very nice person and also a little guarded about his feelings and thoughts. He did not talk much about how the relationship made him feel. We used to spend a lot of time together and he used to love listening to my yapping and was very understanding. He used to guide me so nicely through my hardships and always wanted the best for me. He adored me!

Word of the day: 嘘
I have been thinking of my first boyfriend lately. I mean I still have him on Instagram so I sometimes see his updates though he lives a pretty active life and doesn't post often so it isn't like always in my face. Probably like once every 2 months or something like that.

I tried to be heartless, and here is what happened. Top Story - April 2025.
You know when the shit hits the celing and life is an absolute mess everywhere, yeah that is what I am talking about. My existence has had 22 years on this gorgeous - gorgeous mortal realm and in the recency of my being, my life has sucked a lot. I have had my share of darkness since forever, but of late, my desperation for light has been at its zenith. I have wanted my life to look like the glorious lives of Rory gilmore, an academic scholar, while being the perfect 4.0, a beautiful boyfriend( maybe not necessary), a great deal of money, a stellar institute I go to, a high qualified job in writing or journalism, and parents being super proud of me.
