By Chelyse Prevost Web Content Contributor I’m due for an eye exam? You’re kidding. It hasn’t been a year, there is no way. I’ve reached my last pack of one-day contacts and I can’t order more “until I make an appointment.” An appointment for what? An eye exam? So, what you’re basically saying is, I’m not allowed to see until I prove that I’m still as blind as I was […]
By Chelyse Prevost Web Content Contributor Shortly after writing Sunday Scaries, I came to realize how ironic life really is. I was in a creative thinking class when my professor knocked me out of a vivid daydream about my other priorities while doing an exercise about our task management tendencies (yikes). We discussed the pros and cons of over-anticipating tasks versus procrastinating them and voted on which one we experienced […]
By Chelyse Prevost Web Content Contributor It’s that time of year again. High blood sugar is in the air, and all of our public spaces are saturated in heart-shaped everything. Everyone’s coordinating pink and red as if the two don’t clash and pretending like there’s nothing tacky about it. If you’re in a relationship, I’m sure you’re as giddy as can be (or pretending to be at least). The rest […]
By Chelyse PrevostWeb Content Contributor It’s 3:53 a.m. on Monday morning. You’ve haven’t fallen asleep yet and you’ve tried just about everything. You’ve scrolled through social media to no end, watched a boring movie, even meditated, yet still... nothing. You can't fathom why you have so much on your mind. You might’ve even had an easy day -- did some laundry, checked your emails, cooked an honest meal – and […]
By Chelyse PrevostBlog Content Contributor How ironic. I wrote the original Regarding Resolutions, as my first article for this blog back in 2018 and now I’m back again, in regards to resolutions. Back then, I went on and on about reducing the angst we have about reusing the resolutions we’ve already. My idea was that resolutions have a way of coming full circle, and it’s true, even in the way […]
By Chelyse Prevost Blog Content Contributor "We want it to be their responsibility to fix it but that's not how it works, especially when it's your heart. Your heart, your life, your happiness is your responsibility and your responsibility alone. As long as we're pointing a finger and stuck in who's fault something is, we're jammed and trapped into victim mode. When you're in victim mode, you are stuck in […]
By Chelyse Prevost Blog Content Contributor The broke college student in me is what lead me to apply to work at a gas station, but it's been the people at my store that's made me want to stay. It seems it was just yesterday it was October and I was scrounging for black dress pants before my first day of training. Upon walking in the store I hear "WELCOME IN!" […]
By Chelyse Prevost Blog Content Contributor For the few of those who are unfamiliar, Black Mirror is a British drama-based television series plotting on the dark, yet very vivid downfalls of humanity. The series heavily revolves around overwhelming uses of social media and technology in the present-future tense, paralleling modern day society. Though it's original season piloted in 2011, and was only then brought to an American audience on Netflix […]
By Chelyse Prevost Blog Content Contributor Since Black History Month has been coming to a close, it seems the world is all too prepared for the celebration of Women’s Day on March 8th. We have days and months like these to show both appreciation and awareness for marginalized parts of society. However, these holidays can push the struggles of people who face a double minority out of focus. Women of […]
