This was sort of spontaneous. First chapter is up, and I'm currently working on the next chapter.

Poem for My Disowned Mother
Ah, the divine, she mirrors her sire's visage! Once you mused, in moments fleeting after my birth. Clad in locks of sable dusk, and eyes of azure depth, A mirrored reflection of him, I must've been. Contrary to my brother, birthed with golden tresses.
As the universe spun, my hair paled, his darkened. Our gazes azure, mine speckled with golden sun-kissed hues. With these golden stars, my eyes danced with color. Grey, blue, azure grey, and the verdant green.
You echo the essence of your sire! You've declared, innumerable times. My love for art, you frowned upon. My absence of thrill, you disdained. My lack of fervor, you lamented.
Why, you ponder. Was it a reflection of your own solitary interests? Did my mirror image bring memories of my sire? You dismissed my passions, for they held no place in your heart.
Someday, I hope for your forgiveness! I tried. Oh, how I tried. Forgiveness does not grant you an audience with me. Forgiveness does not imply I long for your proximity. A joyous birth anniversary, dear mother. The third year, I withhold my celebration of your existence. I severed our bond to seek my own salvation. I persist in my pursuit of betterment. So, I implore, leave me be.

Do you ever feel a consistent anxiety? Like, it's manageable, but it sticks with you the entire day?

I saw this on Facebook, and thought I would share.
I have the inattentive type of ADHD (it used to be called ADD, I believe). What type do you have?

"Ever since I was a child, my mother tried to get me to be like her. The extroverted, ever-perfect, can never do the wrong persona. Unfortunately for her, I’m not an extrovert. I’m sure I could’ve been, but having my feeling shot down and invalidated so often growing up, I learned that it was better to be introverted. As long as I kept to myself, stayed in one place, and did what I was told, I stayed out of trouble. I wasn’t praised for staying out of trouble, but that was okay. It was better than spending over an hour listening to her yell at me for the minor mistakes that I had made throughout the day.
Having moved away from my dad, my only escape from her overbearing upbringing was going to my friend's house every weekend. I was allowed to be with my friends as long as my chores from the entire week were done, and I had homework completed.
Dear Dad talks about what my at-home life was like when my dad couldn’t be around. The only time I got to see him was during summer break.
Any time I could get away from my mom, it eased my stress a little bit. Being a teenager with unmedicated ADHD was difficult enough."

So I just realized something today.
When I'm really determined to do something (ex: submitting paperwork a specific way), I actually retain information on how to do it.
Feeling proud of myself.

Unlawful cooking:
A recipe I just came up with, and it actually turned out nicely.
1 pound of beef
15oz can of tomato sauce
2 cups of beef broth
1 cup of frozen corn
1 tsp Garlic powder
1 tsp Mexican oregano
1 tsp thyme
1/2 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon chile powder
2 packages of ramen (discard seasoning pack)
4 oz cream cheese
This is a 1 pot dish. Start by browning and scrambling your beef. Once it's cooked all the way through, add your broth and tomato sauce. Now add your spices. I used a mortar and pestle for the thyme, oregano, and basil to grind it into a powder (or close to it). You don't necessarily have to do that if you don't want to. If you want it spicier, add more chile powder.
Stir well and let it come to a boil. Once it's boiling, cut your cream cheese into chunks and add it to the pot. Once the cream cheese is melted and well mixed, you can add your ramen noodles. Simmer until ramen is tender, about 5 minutes. Voila! Dinner is ready in about 30 minutes.
