The Three Dollar Pizza Slice

There are a lot of things I'm willing to do to obtain the things I want. I'd stream one song for hours on end, losing precious sleep, just to see my kpop boys succeed and achieve quote unquote "world domination". I'd actually go to website, find a recipe, and follow the recipe, to attempt to …

ATEEZ World Domination: And How You Helped Achieve It

Why Do You Blog?

In my AP English class, I've turned my blog into my passion project for the year so I could really give it a push in the right direction. It's been about 2-3 months and I've had time to really think about why I blog. Is it for the money? Is it for the views? Is …
