Freeze Your Fat for a Fee
*A Note to Readers: This story contains content on eating disorders. Reader disgression advised* I pulled my hood up and placed sunglass on my face for extra measure as I exited my car and walked across the parking lot. The storefront of a strip mall grew larger with each step until its awning was looming over me. I avoided eye contact with the vinyl window clings of life-sized women smiling next to enlarged photos of their stomachs. Red circles emphasized areas that contained fat or skin rolls. It reminded me of getting back a test in school, knowing it wasn’t going to be an ‘A’ by the amount of red ink that had bled through the paper. It was clear who the enemy was.

The King of Queens
It was like a movie or the beginning of a bad porno. I decided to spend the day at the beach in Queens, New York. I did yoga that morning and saw a film set pretending to be Puerto Rico for the sake of a tv show. I idled for a few hours, even speaking with one of the PAs about the set and how one could make a few industry friends for work.

Unmasked
It’s really disappointing to me that this pandemic is ending, and everyone is unmasking. With my mask, I could move through crowds of people unnoticed, just one unremarkable person adrift in a sea of humanity. Unfortunately, my life is gradually returning to the hell it’s been since I was 4 years old. People will once again look at me and stare. The careless person who caused the crash walked away unscathed, but not me.

"My boyfriend sent my private pictures to the roommate group."
It's said that no one can walk out of a boyfriend's phone with a smile. I used to take this as a joke all the time. Because my boyfriend is very good to me, maybe because of some love filters, in my eyes, he is sincere and cute.

Yet Another Nigga Occupying My Psyche
I say over and over that I'm done with liking, I'm sorry pining after people who couldn’t give two shits and fart about me. I somehow continue to find myself in the loop of denial, one sided friendships and romantic comedies that don't reflect reality.
