Are You a Yes Man?
Are you a Yes Man? So, here are a few questions for you. Do you cave in whenever someone asks you to do something, even if it’s an inconvenience on your part? Do you comply with whatever just to avoid an argument? Do you bend over backwards for someone you don’t even like? The answer is YES? Then you’re a yes man and you’re not alone. I am too, and so are many out there!

Why I Don't Live Vicariously Through Celebrities or Public Figures
Everyone had at least a famous person that we all have looked up to growing up. Going to an event to get a picture or autograph is an exciting moment in someone's life. In this article, I'm going to give my two cents of why I don't live my life through famous people. I know that sounds odd or unusual, but it's the truth. For most of my life, I have met many well-known public figures—mostly at conventions. People like Vic Mignogna, Kyle Hebert, J. Michael Tatum, Don Teems, and Ciara Renee. It was a great opportunity to meet and take pictures with these people. I'll always hold onto those memories by posting those pictures on my social media pages. I don't always share photos of a famous person that I met, because it's not my thing. I'll share a picture of one every now and then, but it's not an everyday thing. I don't want to come across as being a big shot or show off. It seems like a majority of people these days live vicariously through famous people: whether those people are reality TV stars, actors, or actresses. Some people do that because they feel that he or she knows them personally and is willing to defend them every single time. To be honest, it's sad and pathetic to see regular people do that, mainly because they probably don't have or never had any positive influences in their lives, which I can understand. Their lives probably have no meaning and they're constantly feeling unsatisfied about their lives. They want to see what it feels like to experience the life of that person.

2 Weeks, 27 Goals, and a Whole Lotta Optimism
On May 14th I will be turning 27. Not the most interesting opening sentence, to say the least, but it's weight holds pretty strong for me. Since entering my twenties, each birthday has been accompanied with a sense of dread, the dread that many of us face as we get older and begin to take stock of what we have managed to achieve with each passing year.

So it's far too late for me to be awake right now, but I can't stop thinking about something. I've recently been taking advantage of the supposedly "open" message boxes of celebrities I follow on Instagram. It started off as just me responding stupid things to their stories, having zero expectation that they would actually see it. And if they so happened to see it, I highly doubt they would respond to me. But then I started using it as another way for me to actually try and reach out to these people I think so highly of. I'd catch a glimpse of something we had in common that we could relate on and I'd use it to try and form some kind of connection through it.
