𝐅𝐀𝐑𝐀𝐇 𝐊𝐇𝐀𝐍
full name: Farah Khan gender & pronouns: cis woman & she/her age & date of birth: 45, August 1st 1977 (i.e. 32, January 1st, 1990) where do they live: northside time living in lockwood springs: Entire life occupation: Gallery 115 Owner and Adjunct Professor of Physics at a Community College positive traits: creative, confident, encouraging, industrious,  long-suffering negative traits: abrasive, jaded, perfectionist, sharp-tongued face claim: Sarah Shahi
FULL BIO HERE. OVERVIEW.
Farah was born to immigrant parents who wanted the best for her and her sisters but who also wanted them to have secure futures
She grew up knowing what a hard work ethic was and really strove to make them proud/set an example for her younger sisters
She went to college for physics/astronomy and was doing great until she rediscovered her love of art which she’d put on the back burner
Lied to her fam and said she took a job but really took an apprenticeship with an artist in her hometown of Lockwood (her fam had moved to CA by then)
When they found out, her parents stopped talking to her and she kinda had to figure out things for herself post grad
During that time back in Lockwood, she reconnected with Arthur who’d been a good friend in HS and who was dealing with the loss of his HS gf whom Farah had also been close with
What started out as a friend support a friend soon became something more, with Farah caring for his newborn daughter and for him with more than friendly affection
It wasn’t long before they started a relationship and got married. 
Cracks began to show when she was pregnant with twins and he was dealing with his father and they really prioritized their three kids (Farah having legally adopted his daughter too) and their relationship began to breakdown slowly but surely over the years until they divorced in 2019. There’s still much love for him and care as the father of her children but they just couldn’t hack it after 20 something years.
During those years she got her masters and has begun teaching at a community college 45 mins away. At the same time she’s running a successful gallery. 
HEADCANONS.
A big yogi, she does yoga for an hour each morning if she can, and tries not to do less than 30 minutes as it centers her
Was a cheerleader in HS but encouraged her older daughter to avoid it if she wanted to avoid petty drama, but if she wanted to join, she’d support her fully
Engaged all children in art from an early start, letting them paint their rooms and encouraging all forms of creativity
Simultaneously she would also encourage curiosity in the world around them, especially in space and the Khan-Callahans would take camping trips where Farah would point out constellations and planets to her kids with a telescope she was gifted by her parents upon graduating college.
Started speaking to her parents again after she had kids at 27 and despite there being some unresolved feelings about where Farah ended up career-wise, both her parents love her three kids and dote on them
Her first language was Farsi spoken at home and then English. She has taught her children Farsi and even attempted to teach Arthur, though she suspects he only really paid attention to the curse words.
She wasn’t close to her sisters during the time their parents didn’t speak to her but they didn’t ice her out completely. She and Arthur didn’t have a big wedding but her sisters sent gifts anyway.
She adopted Arthur’s 1-year old daughter when they got married and they had twins, Malik & Leila, in 2005 who are 18 and in their first year of college.
Farah is incredibly encouraging of the artists who come through Gallery 115 and does her best to help some of the younger ones network.
CONNECTIONS.
YOGA BUDDIES – people she’s gotten into yoga over the years and who does it with her sometimes
FORMER STUDENTS – anyone she’s taught in the past 5 years at the community college 45 mins away or online (she does both)
GALLERY REGULARS – people who always come in to see what art is on display or wh showcase their art 
SISTERS (0/2) – will put up a wc – but they became close really after she had the twins and their parents started talking to her again. They didn’t cut her out like their parents did but it was a fine line to tread so there’s room for past angst/drama there

you guys aren’t ready to hear this fic/comic idea I had involving conker and his family so I’ll share what I posted on my discord
cw: referenced child abuse, verbal abuse, family death, funerals, childhood truama
—-
Conker is staying with Banjo, a letter that gets delivered to them; and it’s addressed to conker, it’s from his father. He’s a bit hesitant to open it and read it but banjo reassures him that he can if he wants to, so he does. It’s a letter/invitation
Conkers mother passed away, his dad and the family want him to come to the funeral to pay respects. He’s shocked, it’s hard to read what he’s thinking. But there’s a bit of sadness in his eyes, banjo hugs him. After the hug banjo asks conker if he’s going to go to the funeral, conker doesn’t answer, hes processing the letter, rereading it over and over. There’s a bit of fear in his eyes because he recognizes his fathers handwriting, him asking his son to go to just kind of takes him back to his childhood.
Not happy memories.
Banjo notices his distress and he asks conker if he’s okay, conker shakes it off and decides to take a walk alone. Banjo stands there watching him leave for a moment before looking at the letter, he remembers the time he interacted with his parents when they were kids. They seemed normal and nice whenever conker invited him over, but banjo has a feeling that there could be something wrong that’s causing conker to be a little off by the invitation from his father.
maybe they weren’t so nice, I mean, conker never talked to him about how his parents were. he doesn’t want to ask, since he also never really opened up about how neglectful his parents were to him. Once conker comes back after like 20 to 30 min, he tells banjo he wants to go to the funeral.
but he asks for a favor
He wants banjo to come with him; he doesn’t want to go by himself, he just wants to pay respects and leave as soon as he can. He doesn’t tell banjo why, he just kind of…Asks him in a more pleading tone; desperate for him to agree but not making it obvious.
Banjo notices this and agrees, because he wants to be there for him.
Once that day hits, banjo and Conker head over to travel to where it’s taking place, aka: conkers hometown. Kazooie stays behind to watch the home and such, but her and banjo had a hard time leaving one another because they had never been apart for this long but for conkers sake, she and hi agreed that she needed to stay and watch everything.
During their travels banjo boldly asks conker what his mother was like, conker responds “She always told me right from wrong and did everything my dad said.”
Banjo knew, this was not going to go well..
Once they finally arrive after a day of traveling, conker is hit with a lot of memories seeing his old hometown, memories he is not happy to remember. He was frozen in place not moving an inch closer, terrified out of his mind if he goes in. Banjo sees this and holds his hands, reassuring him that he’s here, he’s with him.
Conker snaps out of it and hesitated to move but does so as they’re walking by holding hands, ok I envisioned that…
As they’re walking, the camera is away from where they are walking, basically following where they’re going. when they walk passed a tree, it cuts to them being younger, holding hands, not a care in the world in the same place. The camera follows them, another three passes by, they’re adults again, still holding hands.
Finally they made it to conkers home where his and his mothers family were outside talking and such, the second conker sees his house he just quickly lets go of banjos hand and stuffs them in his hood pockets. The regret of coming here soon clashes in him and Conker tries to turn back but it’s too late, everyone saw him. All eyes are on him and banjo, conker is cursing at himself.
He walks closer as banjo follows closely with him, the feeling of his family’s eyes on him really just spiked up his anxiety, he’s fighting to get himself a drink or smoke, anything to help make this nervousness go away. And then right there not far from him is his dad. They both look at one another, not sure what to say. There’s complete silence, conker gets nervous. But he does his best to try not to show it in-front of his father.
Finally the silence is broken and his dad says
“Well look who FINALLY showed up, and here I thought you weren’t gonna make it to your own mothers funeral.”
“Yeah, hey Chuck.”
“This damn boy still calls me “Chuck”, ain’t that just something, you got some balls after leaving us, son. The fact that this is the damn time you show up to see the family is just typical for your behavior.”
“jesus christ, can we not do this right now? Please?”
As they’re talking, banjo is standing close behind conker, just in utter disbelief at what he’s witnessing and hearing. This was NOT the Chuck he met when he was younger. Not one bit.
Banjos instinct to grab conker and run as far away as he can go.
But then conkers dad notices banjo and he asks why the hell hes here, this is family only and Conker responds “You know him, you were close to his damn dad. I invited him along.” His dad grunts but steps closer to banjo and starts asking him “Hm, fine, it’s been a while Banjo, what do you do for a living? You got a wife? Kids?”
Banjos a little taken back by these questions and he goes “h-hello sir, I uh…don’t really have a job but I-“
“Tsk, what kind of man doesn’t have a job? You a freeloader like my son?”
Conker cringes at that, Banjo pauses at that “what?”
“At least tell me you got yourself a wife.”
“No sir, I live with my sister kazooie as I’m taking care of my little sister tootie-“
“You’re a grown ass man with no job, no wife, no kids? you’re wasting your life away, with your type you’d be a fine addition to the army and yet you’re just sitting at home being a lazy bum like my son.”
Conker just doesn’t say anything, he’s looking away not making eye contact at all as he’s trying to hide deeper within his hoodie. Banjo is standing there, getting angry. he’s starting to loose his cool.
But then one of the family members interrupts their interaction and says that the funeral is about to begin shortly. As everyone gets ready, conker pulls banjo to the side for a moment as they talk
“Banjo- I know what you’re thinking-“
“Does he always treat you like this?”
“Look just- just keep quiet and once-“
“Does he always treat you like this?”
“….I didn’t exactly have a ‘great’ childhood.”
“oh my god-“
“Please just promise me you won’t say anything, I just wanna get this done and we’ll be out of here and you’re never gonna see him again.”
“Conker, your own father was belittling you! His own son- in front of the entire family! I don’t care what he has to say about me but hearing him talk about you like that-“
“Banjo. Promise me you won’t say anything”
“But-“
“Damn you! just promise me!”
“…….okay.”
—-
Wanna know what happens after? Just say “HAND OVER THE SECOND PART OR PERISH!!”

My Experience in an Abusive Relationship
This isn’t something that we every really talk about. Most people don’t want to hear about it and the people who go through it don’t want to talk about it. 
But I think that it needs to be said. I don’t know why I picked now other than it was on my mind and I’ve recently talked about it to some people in my life since I recently moved back to my hometown temporarily. 
I’ve mentioned it in passing before, but I wanted to give actual details this time. And please know if you are in an abusive relationship, please feel free to reach out to me if you need it! You are not alone and I never want you to think you are!
This is a really long post, so I’ve added a ‘keep reading’ break.  
I was in it for a year. Not as long as some people sure, but it felt like a lifetime by the time I got out. He never got physical with me, it was all mental and emotional abuse. He showed the signs of future physical abuse though and when I look back on it now I know it was only a matter of time - in fact I found out later that he hit his next girlfriend. But I got out 10, almost 11 years ago and up until when I moved to the other side of the country (in 2015) he still tried to contact me regularly by phone, FB, or text or did little things to show that he was still watching. I can't even be sure if he's not still watching - even virtually - he randomly requested me on LinkedIn a couple months back in fact. The first contact since 2015, so I know he’s probably still occasionally watching. 
In some ways I lucked out. I was still in high school when I was with him so I didn't live with him and I didn't have to worry about trying to get out and find a place since I still lived at home with my parents. Because I was in high school I didn’t have to worry about being 100% isolated from everyone who could help me - but that doesn’t mean he didn’t isolate me, he did. He was still around - though not at school because he was 6 years older.
A week after we started dating was my birthday. At my party, when I was surrounded by so many people, he preformed his first major act of manipulation by giving me a written will to hold on to ‘just in case’ and telling me that he loved me so much and I was the only thing keeping him alive. We had known each other for 2 months at this point. We were together a year. One of the other major ones was he convinced me to tell my parents that he was gay so that we could hang out more without my parents suspecting anything. 
I helped him find a new apartment, helped him get back into college, helped him mend his relationship with his family, encouraged him to make friends, helped him job search, helped him budget, and so much more. I spent basically every weekend at his place (which was an hour away once he moved and 30 mins before he moved), often lying to my parents to do so. He essentially became my life and he frequently called me his ‘sole pillar of support’. This isn’t an easy thing to be for someone, in fact it should never be placed on one person like this - and it was definitely another aspect of the emotional manipulation. 
He cheated on me too, he admitted to 2 of them in tactics to try and keep me throughout the relationships (And there was also the time he proposed to me with a ring and everything when it looked like I was going to take our ‘break’ (he still contacted me daily and expected me to do so as well) and turn it into a ‘break up’.). But later on a mutual friend had mentioned “he feels really bad about cheating on you with a and b”...except the names he gave her were not the names he originally gave me. So there are at least 4 instances I’ve heard about, but honestly I suspect there were at least 2 other girls he cheated on me with.
It was tough because despite the fact that we didn’t live together, he worked like hell to put me in a position where I didn't feel like I could tell anyone what was going on - from friends to family, I felt like I couldn't tell anyone for various reasons. In fact it was only later that I told anyone and every last one of them was shocked. They didn't realize I wasn't in love with him, I had them all fooled. I was really good at putting up a front. I finally got out on my next birthday (I say it was a birthday gift for myself, but to be honest while it was liberating and needed, my birthday has now turned into a reminder of that time...), we were together for just over a year. 
Side note while I’m on it- please please please think about what you say, especially if you are in high school - and I don’t just mean in a situation where you know your friend or family member is going through a rough time. I was in this relationship for a year and I never told a soul until it was over that it was abusive. One of my friends told my parents I had sex with him, my mom would make snide remarks, my dad was so openly disappointed in the fact that I had lied (and is the type of dad to want no details of a relationship, stated by him) that I retreated into myself and didn’t speak of my ex to my dad, my closet friend had been alienated from me early on because of her open dislike of him and she had eventually told me it was him or her, most of my other friends all defended him or said I was exaggerating whenever I brought up anything to do with worries (one even convinced me to give him a second chance after one of the cheating instances, as a side note, she later ended up the mother of 2 of his kids and is the one he hit...), and the few that were left tended to only dislike him because of how much time I spent with him (I had to text him multiple times a day, school or not, or he would flip out - this was back in the day of flip phones too) or talking to him or I wasn’t close enough to them to confide something like this. I just really needed someone to take the time to talk to me about it all not just blow up or judge me about it and for all of these reasons and a million more that revolved around his words, I felt alone and judged and felt I could tell no one. Support the people in your life and their relationships, don’t criticize, don’t judge, don’t coerce, don’t yell, don’t blame. Let them come to you if they push back to you asking them about it, let them know that they can count on you to be there for them. You don’t have to agree with them, you don’t even have to say that you like that person they’re with - but no matter what you need to make it very very clear that you will support them and their decisions because you want them to be happy, safe, and secure. This will give them that support they need and it will allow them to know there is an out. I needed this, and I’ve since tried to be this for others.  
I finally ended it when he wished me a happy birthday in complete monotone and then when I said 'I love you' (I was conditioned to say it by that point, he would flip out if I didn’t) he said 'yeah I know, see you tomorrow' and that was it. I just snapped - one of the main tangible reasons I was still with him was because he had me convinced that he would kill himself if I left him because he loved me that much, and yet he can’t even say ‘I love you’ on my birthday?. That was when I broke up with him though it took 2 hours of conversation because he kept trying to manipulate me back and at times he almost did.  And Honestly, it's a good thing it was over the phone because he'd already managed to convince me in the past to stay with him when it was in person. Though I did eventually accept that if he did kill himself, it would in no way be my fault (spoiler alert, he didn’t).  
Later, after I had ended it and before my birthday party was over with he sent me a link to his LiveJournal (yeah...don’t know who will remember that one, but its an online journal that people can comment on - or it was, no idea if it still exists). And in that online journal was more attempts at manipulation, more attempts to hurt and cut me. Because he didn’t just send it to me for the post where he ranted and raved about me dumping him. He sent it to me because he had spent months, months, bad mouthing me online. Months talking about how I never did anything in the relationship. Months of him saying he was worried I may be cheating on him. Months of him describing everything from a view point that was solely designed to cut me down and build him up. Months of getting sympathetic ears telling him how he should break up with me if I wasn’t going to put in the effort that a relationship needs. I may have never seen it before that point but he made sure I saw it then. It was an attempt to manipulate me back into the relationship, make me believe that I was to blame, make me believe that I hadn’t put in the effort, make me believe that I was the cause of everything that I had brought up in our breakup conversation. He called multiple times after ‘giving me a chance to cool down’ and even brought it up to me one of the times I answered, trying to see if I had ‘seen the relationship from his side’. 
And you know what’s worse? If he had waited a couple more days for all my friends to have gone home, for me to be alone with my thoughts, it may have worked - I can’t 100% say that it wouldn’t have. As it is I think he sent it when he did thinking that either I would be embarrassed and want to save face with my friends by taking him back to prove I wasn’t like what he said, or he wanted to ruin my credibility with my friends by showing them all what I ‘was actually like’. Because he knew that when I saw the email my friends would convince me to open it and read what was said right then with all of them as well. 
I took years for myself to figure out myself again. Because with that relationship I also realized that a lot of my friendships weren't healthy either. So many of my friendships were all about what I could give them and had nothing to do with what they could give me. I had to spend my college years relearning what a friend should be like and had to figure out how to relate to people again. It's only been in the last 5 or so years that I've even been going on dates again and I haven't been in a serious relationship since him, no one I would call a boyfriend. Hell, I've only be intimate with one other person and that turned into a one night stand type of deal.
Honestly, I’m still struggling with parts of this. I still struggle sometimes to have a healthy friendship, my early friendships and this relationship make it difficult for me to confide in people or ask for help (though I am better at it than I was), I also find it difficult to trust others and sometimes my own judgement. The lasting affects of going through something like this can’t be ‘fixed’ overnight. 
It's incredibly tough to get through the abuse - physically we can heal, mentally and emotionally it takes much much longer and the scars are harder to see. People say that mental and emotional abuse are the worse - and some people discount physical abuse because it can heal - I haven’t had any physical abuse so I can’t say for sure, but I will say that it is impossible for physical abuse to happen without there being mental and emotional abuse as well, don’t discount any abuse. 
Abuse is abuse and no one should every have to go through it.. 
Once again. If you ever need someone to talk to, please message me. I’m here to listen.

Going, Going, Gone
Word count: 1,856
Pure angst, my pure heart is hurt.
Obviously some things are distorted.
(GIF creds to owner.)
Tumblr media
Tour was supposed to be fun or whatever, but then again I wasn’t the one who was singing. I wasn’t the one who gets to be around thousands of hyped up people. I wasn’t the one who did the meet and greets.
I don’t want to sound like an attention hog, but I was not the one who had Calum’s attention. I knew that I wouldn’t always be when I first got here after their second leg of the tour started, it’s just that Calum was ecstatic to be around me. As time went on, I was just kind of there like a coat-hanger, useful sometimes but in the way.
We have just started to argue more and bicker about stupid stuff. I knew the guys were picking up on it and I tried to just let it go, but I couldn’t. I hated that they heard all the arguing and how it didn’t seem like Cal was here for me.
The quick wind that pushed past me had snapped me out of my trance, I look up to see Calum had walked past me to get some coffee from the little deck towards the corner of the bus. “Good afternoon,” I mumble quietly and twirl my thumbs. “Yeah.” He replies in a monotone voice, per usual.
We were up bickering most of the night and I didn’t like it, but what was I gonna do? Neither of us had apologized for a fight in so long that I didn’t even feel like we were the same Calum and y/n that everyone knew.
“Good afternoon beautiful people!” Ashton came bounding down the hallway cheerfully, completely nosediving to jump his way beside me on the (very) small couch. Calum gave him a look and the sat on the other small couch in front of us. Ashton laid his head on my lap and completely ignored Calum’s glare.
His hair was slicked back and I kept flicking the one piece that was hanging over his forehead. “You should dye your hair,” I suggest as he was swatting my hand away. “What color?” He asks as he finally gave up trying to stop me. “Red. You’d like nice with red hair.” I think aloud and he just shrugs. “We’ll see. Maybe after the tour is over I will.” He says and then sits up.
“I’ll be outside walking if anyone needs me, just try not to,” Calum utters under his breath and then stomps towards the door. Ash and I give each other a look, this wasn’t the first time this week that he did this. “I’ve got him this time, it’s my turn,” I say and stand up from the couch.
I had to basically jump off the last step because it always seemed so high, usually, Cal would laugh but he hasn’t recently. He hasn’t done a lot of things recently. He had just made it past the back of the bus, he was still walking straight ahead. Luckily, there were no fans in sight.
When I finally get behind him, I tug his jacket slightly. “Calum, just stop for a second.” I plead and he comes to a halt, turning very abruptly. “What the fuck do you want?” He snaps and my eyes widen. “Jesus, what is wrong now?” I roll my eyes.
“You! You’re always so lovey-dovey towards Ashton and you never fucking care about me! Why the fuck would you even come on this tour if you didn’t plan on caring about me and just fucking being around everyone else all the time?” He yells and I signal my hand for him to be quieter and I point towards the bus still being fairly close to us.
“You had the chance to ask him to move. You had the chance to act that way with me any fucking time. This is not my fault Calum, you’re the one constantly bringing up shit that doesn’t make sense. At least your best friends are more caring about me than you are.” I snarl and he just laughs. He fucking laughs!
I wanted to rip that pretty little smirk off of his face.
“You’re right, they care more about you than I do nowadays. Just because I invited you here doesn’t mean that everyone fucking wants you here right now. Fuck off!” He says emotionless and I feel my heart break a little. I guess it’s one thing to not feel wanted by your peers but another thing to not be wanted by your boyfriend.
“I-uh. Yeah, well I just wanted to check on you. Ash mentioned something about an interview in 20 minutes.” I lie about Ashton saying it, I just memorized the schedule this morning at 3 am after our fight so I could distract myself.
I just try to pull all the tears back in and turn around as quick as I could so he wouldn’t see my eyes becoming glassy.
I keep my head low as I walked onto the bus and the guys tried to speak but I just wave them off. “Cal said he’d be done with his walk soon so you guys could leave for the interview.” I lie, once again, and go to the empty spare bunk bed to lay down.
“Change in interview stuff guys, the interviewers have moved the production of it to the actual arena. They want to do a backstage thing with you guys before the show, so they thought it would be easier to just start off the day here. They’re going to be setting up and I’ll give you the call when they’re done. Tell Calum.” I couldn’t pick up whose voice it was because of how far back this bunk was, but I just let the guys do their own rejoicing thing. God knows I’m a bother to them.
—-
The guys had left for their interview like 15 minutes ago and I was currently doing my annual sweep of the venue. I liked to do this so the night of the concert when things were more hectic, I could do my own thing and know where everything was.
I accidentally found myself at the section of the venue where the interview was being placed, I stopped in my tracks so quick. I slowly walked backward and just stood behind everyone and listened in. No one knew I was there, per usual.
“So love guys? What are we feeling about that subject?” The girl from the interviewer asks. “I don’t believe in love anymore, all I love is Duke and music,” Calum says something first and my heart literally shattered. “So you and your girlfriend aren’t in love anymore?” The interviewer sounded intrigued.
“Of course we’re in love, we’ve been together for 2 years.” He says quickly and I shake my head, tears begin to brim my eyes. Being together for 2 years isn’t exactly the reason to be in love. I don’t want to be here anymore. I don’t want to be around Calum anymore.
I wipe off any sign of tears and I tap Jakes shoulder (the guy who was in charge of flights and hotels) and he turns around quickly. Jake was a complete jokester, we all absolutely loved this guy. “Hey, sweet girl.” He says and it probably sounds weird, but he’s like 50 and a hero.
I could see in his eyes that he was apologetic and upset, but he smiled at me anyway. “I need you to cancel any flights or hotel rooms for me, I’m going home,” I say and his nose scrunches up. “Are you sure? Have you spoke to Calum?” He asks as he gets his phone out of his back pocket.
“Yeah, we spoke. Thanks, Jake!” I say and hug him slightly, I turn around and sniffle quickly. I start to walk away but someone tugs my shoulder lightly.
“Oh, hey Mitchy.” I smile warmly and he gives me a look. “I heard you speaking to Jake. You’re leaving?” He asks and I nod quickly. “Calum knows, I just need some time for myself.” I lie and he chuckles.
“You still suck at lying.” He jokes and I shrug. “It doesn’t matter where I am at, Calum wouldn’t care.” I groan and Mitchy scrunched his eyebrows. “Calum loves you and he’s probably just going through something. You can’t just leave without telling him.” He crosses his arms and I just roll my eyes.
“Mitch, I can just leave a note on his bed. If I know this guy pact that you guys have going on, you’ll end up telling him. So, please just wait until after the show. Please. I don’t want this to make the show weak and hurt the fans.” I beg and he nods. “Fine, but what should I tell him?” He asks.
“Tell him I’m staying with my sister, he’ll get the memo. Bye, congrats on hitting number 1 by the way.” I hug him quickly and had to literally jog away before I let my tears all out.
“Y/n! Y/n!” Fans were calling my name and I literally froze. How was I supposed to leave with suitcases and bags? I breathe in deeply, turn away and wipe my eyes. I take the sunglasses that were hanging off my shirt and put them over my eyes.
“Hey, guys!” I smile warmly at all of them and they were acting calm thank goodness. “Can we get a picture? If you’re not busy or anything.” They were so polite and it literally warmed my heart. There were only about 5 girls and they had all just been so cute while taking pictures. Then it hit me, I knew how to make sure they were gone so I could leave.
“Do you guys have ID on you?” I ask and they all nod. “Tell me your names,” I ask and I pull my phone out and text one of the guys in management. I send him their names and tell him that they have their ids to verify. I requested that they make it inside m&g because they were so nice. They respond with a thumbs up and I smile.
“You guys just scored some m&g tickets, just show them your ID. They all line up in 30 mins.” I say and they all had tears. “Thank you so much! We love you!” They all cried as they were basically running back towards the front.
I let my tears come back as I walked inside the bus. I write a quick note and lay it on Calum’s bed. I drag my suitcase out and put all my items back in. I get my pink bag and put all my items from the bathroom back in it. I look around and make sure that I had everything. I took one more deep breath as I called my sister, she could obviously hear the wavering in my voice but gladly said I could join her.
I book a flight back to my hometown and the flight leaves tonight.
I guess this is it. This is it.
Part 2 guys????

! ✰ ° — [ RAMI MALEK, CISMALE, HE/HIM ] bowie abaza, aka agent galileo is a thirty-six year old biomedical agent that has been loyal to mercy for three years. they have a reputation of being the savant because they can be steadfast & amicable. but let’s not forget they’re pretty blasé & fastidious. if you listen closely you can hear sunday morning by maroon 5 whenever they walk past. 
STATISTICS:
full name: bowie abraxas abaza nicknames: just bowie yo hometown: cairo, egypt gender: cismale sexuality: pansexual / panromantic spoken languages: masri ( egyptian arabic ), arabic, english, german & spanish hogwarts house: he’s a hoe ass ravenclaw y’all , caries around sudoko puzzles tattoos: bc i’m weak and idc if this is a feminine aRM he has this rose tattoo on his right arm
BACKSTORY:
so ya Mans bowie abraxas abaza was born and raised in cairo, egypt up until he was 6 years old but moved around A LOT bc his mom is fickle and tbh bowie never really minded bc his a World Traveler by the time college rolls around .. he hasn’t been in a place for long and he doesn’t mind it bc he;s a bit of a wandering spirit or vagabond if u will
but yeah his mom didn’t really come from money but his dad was pretty well off ?? he was an accountant in cairo bc it was a family thing that the men followed suit in and his dad was set to marry this woman bc their families were close but his dad was like lmao thx but no thx and ran off with his teenage sweetheart who also happened to be his neighbor but u can thank his moms deep love of david bowie for his name
i say ran off but lit he dipped 30 mins away to the house he bought jdsbfajf sOOO bowie chills with his parents in cairo until he’s 6 until his mom says she wants to move them to prague and asks bowie for his insight and in his 6 year old wisdom he’s like uHhh yeah sure why not  .. u know as a parent does in big life decisions
but bowie def takes more after his mom in the sense of being p easy going and goes with the flow ?? chilled out most of the time and hardly ever raises his voice or loses his temper ?? hates confrontation and would much rather avoid it all costs nflksdj so u gotta do smth Wild for him to show frustration
he doesn’t take things too seriously or get too attached bc of how much moving he did as a kid ,, which u think his dad would be like nyla pls .. let me have a steady job but he is Whipped and grossly in love but to be fair ,, they both are and bowie hasn’t ever seen a couple more in love after so many years than his parents so it warms his heart a bit
it’s when they’re in prague that his mom gives birth to his younger sister safia ( i have jade thirlwall for a potential wc .. someday maybe idk ) and bowie actually adores his sister ?? thinks she hung the stars in the sky and would Die for her .. until she becomes a teenager and he’s like safia i s2g i will nerf u,, as any brother but he still luvs her
until he’s 15 he bounces around from prague to budapest to moscow before his parents make The Move to san franscisco, california and that’s the last move the abaza clan make just to spare bowie and safia from falling back even further in schooling and bowie was like .. mom pls chill out
bowie did exceptionally well in high school and was the jerk who was just naturally smart and didn’t have to study much bc it just came easy to him  ,, HUGE HIPSTER TRASH im not even sorry ,, likes to smoke weed and hates beer but is a wine hoe .. wears hawaiian button downs unironically, ripped skinny jeans .. big fan of chelsea boots and slip on vans and leather jackets and that still transfers over to his style now
gets along with p much anyone ?? was in the robotics club in high school, on the deans list but weaved between the cliques with ease and probably bc of how chill and down to earth he was ,, helped people out with tutoring n such and just stayed in his own lane
on his 18th birthday he got a giant rose tattoo on his right arm much to the horror of his dad jdfaljk but and he’s v proud of it and has an urge to get a sleeve but now working for Governmental peeps , he mainly wears long sleeve shirts and is wary of mercy’s stance and doesn’t wanna ask
a bit non commital in terms of Relationships ,, v sexually liberal and v pansexual / panromantic and hasn’t even really settled down just bc he feels like he doesn’t wanna settle down into things and make them so serious ?? so he’s just big into the hookup scene but he ain’t the type to dip first thing when he wakes up .. likes to chill and lay in bed and maybe go get some breakfast w u
becoming a doctor was a last minute whim bc he wanted to do engineering but changed his mind and applied to john hopkins for pre-med bc i hate him and he figures why not ?? ya mans gets an early admission and he’s v proud of himself and parents cry bc they're proud of their boy and what he's achieved even with all their moving around !! im emo thinking about it now bye
lit his bachelor’s and then med school . bowie runs on caffeine, multiple existential crises and the determination of elle woods and time flies and he’s 26 and graduates john hopkins med school summa cum laude after internships n such and ya bOY IS SWAGGY !! secures his residency and is living life as a trauma surgeon back in san francisco for a bit before he gets into contact with mercy and bc he's impulsive as fuck he’s the meme of the hand slapping the button that says nUT
accurate representation of bowie jdnfls so he’s been chilling as a biomedical agent for mercy for three years and finds it more thrilling than a trauma surgeon ?? liked being on but there’s something more to being at mercy that while he enjoyed saving lives , he feels a greater purpose at mercy 
p much the middle ground between fitz and misha bc he’s just Chill , kjsdkl that’s the best way i can conjure up thots bc he’s easy going and talks to most people and doesn’t rise up to frustration and just offers solutions and is Unimpressed when field agents try to act tough like calm down chad ur gonna bleed out so shut up and come over here
chose his agent name as galileo bc he’s a science Nerd and i hate him

So I'm a piece of shit who like never answers things and im cleaning out my drafts so im super sorry this is so fucking late @recoveringhipster
Which I'm sure you dont even remember this it's from an "ask me" like 6 months ago lmao
4: (truth) What is the nicest thing anyone has ever done for you? (dare) Post the oldest selfie on your camera roll.
Ok nicest thing anyone has ever done for me? I'm not going to lie, this was something that was really hard to figure out but I narrowed it down. 2 weeks after I turned 18 I moved to Austin for college. I knew just about nobody, I had family here but the kind of family that had had a huge falling out with my parents and hadn't spoken to us in 9 years or in my moms twin sisters case, disapproved of my family and only saw us once every 2 to 3 years. I was living with her. My relationship with my parents is complicated, they've visited me 4 times since I moved to Austin 4 years ago (once because of the hurricane and twice because I was graduating college) I essentially knew no one. I had no friends either. The friends I did have were 3 hours away and kept up spotty contact so TLDR I moved 3 hours away and had no support system what so ever. I made what I thought were 2 friends and they bailed on me constantly. Ok so scene set here is the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me:
My friends had just bailed on me for like a 5th time and I'm at the bus stop waiting for the bus to get back to my aunts house (9 years no contact aunt at that) when I just start crying. It's just too much, the disappointment of my friends bailing on me, having no one around me who I know even likes or loves me, I barely know this city, the stress of school and it's just too fucking much.
So I'm quietly sobbing when this tiny old Mexican woman parks her ass next to me and I make my first friend. Her name was Mari, she came from a city 30 min from my hometown and she single handedly made my life a thousand times better in the span of a 45 minute conversation. I told her about everything, poured my heart out, and she sat there for 45 while minutes listening and giving advice and just being such a hilarious old woman with a core of steel. "Fuck those assholes with a steel toed boot, you dont need friends like that." I had never in my 18 years of life just had someone, a complete stranger, come to me and just be there for me like that. We met at that same bus stop 5 days a week for the next 2 years.
One of my favorite quotes from her which I feel tumblr would appreciate: "this neighborhood was so nice before all the white people moved in."
20: (truth) What does your bedroom look like? (dare) Take one selfie and post it. You only get one shot! (No old selfies or retrying, even if you think you look bad)

Fitness Check: Tobacco Road Half Marathon
Race weekends are so weird. I will never understand how time can move so quickly, yet so slowly, in the span of 48 hours.  
Today I raced the Tobacco Road Half Marathon in Cary, North Carolina.  Everything about this weekend seemed to embody the dichotomy of fast and slow.  
I arrived in NC early Friday afternoon, around 11 AM.  I think this race was first on my radar because my teammate, Andie Cozzarelli, lives in Raleigh and mentioned it to me the last time she raced the Indy Monumental Marathon.  My main motivation for choosing races this year was to choose ones where I could win money.
In the past chasing cash has scared me, because I have been afraid of the gnawing anger / frustration / embarrassment / resentment when the race doesn’t go the way I had hoped, and I don’t win the money I had anticipated.  There is also a factor where trying to win money, and then losing it, makes it feel more real, and scary in a way.  Which is something I need to confront.  
Friday was a lot of fun. Andie and I went for a run, watched approximately 30,000 episodes of Friends, then went out to dinner at an Italian restaurant in downtown Raleigh.  I had possibly the best seafood risotto I have ever tasted, paired with a delicious red wine.  Afterwards we watched more Friends.  What I love about my Haute Volee teammates is that they have pretty seamlessly filled the gap that was left after college during racing weekends.  Whenever Andie and I are together we run, do a little bit of work, watch some tv, eat, and talk to the point of exhaustion – just like my college days with my roommates.
Saturday I joined Andie for the end of her long run, then we headed over to the cutest coffee shop I have ever seen for a volee meet up.  A friend of mine who I hadn’t seen since high school lives in Raleigh, and we got together for lunch at a Japanese restaurant.  I ordered pho, solely for the reason that this time last year I went out to dinner with the ZAP Fitness team in Jacksonville and ate pho before running a PR.  
After parting ways with my friend, I took an uber to my hotel.  One of very few perks of Dave traveling all the time is that he can hook me up with Mariott hotels when I am out of town.  I was able to have a suite with a kitchen.  By the time I checked in at 2 PM, I only had 3 hours before the expo closed and I had to pick up my packet (no race day packet pick up).  I still needed another short run, and the expo was 2.5 miles away, so I naturally ran there.  Except, there was no sidewalk.  So I ran on the shoulder of a super busy and scary road.  #fail
By the time I got back to my hotel, I was pretty exhausted.  Even though I had really done nothing in the past 24 hours, I also felt like I had done everything.   I still needed to find some groceries, because I had already eaten the pre-race breakfast I had packed.  #secondfail
Grocery stores were really far away, but, Instacart exists in Cary!  Many struggles and 45 minutes of indecision later, I finally place my order for 18 larabars (literally), yogurt, two blood oranges, a box of instant oatmeal, 3 bananas, a beer, a dark chocolate bar, two kombuchas, and a small carton of orange juice.  Why did I order 18 larabars?  Well, I either could choose to pay $10 for delivery, or reach a certain threshold for free delivery.  18 larabars it was.  
I watched Loyola upset Tennessee, then excitedly got ready for bed because I was SO TIRED.  I had no idea the race was at 7 AM, which meant a 4 AM wake up call.  I turned off the lights at 9, but then COULDN’T FALL ASLEEP.  Normally, sleeping the night before a race is not a problem for me.  I wasn’t even thinking about the race, I just couldn’t fall asleep once I turned out the lights.  First the room was too hot.  Then I had to switch around my pillows.  Then I had to go to the bathroom.  Then the room was too cold.  Then every single person who walked down the hallway sounded like an elephant.  Then I started my period and was having cramps (seriously, my last 10 of 14 races I have started my period within 24 hours of the race.  It’s bizarre).  I remember looking at the clock at 2 AM and thinking to myself, just get 90 minutes of sleep.  
Even though I didn’t get a good night’s rest, I woke up feeling pretty good.  I had my breakfast and watched MTV.  I’ve had to give up coffee before races because I don’t think it does anything for me.  Instead, I drink green tea.  I packed a hand-made tea bag of roasted green tea that I bought in San Francisco for my morning cuppa.  
My friend, Tim, picked me up at 5 AM to head over to the start.  You know what’s cool about racing competitively?  You accumulate friends all across the country who are willing to do things like drive out of their way to pick you up.  
Tumblr media
The next part is pretty standard:  talk with your runner friends while waiting for the start, use the porta potty 30 times, run warm up, do drills, take off clothes, pee in the woods because the porta potty line is too long, do some strides, get nervous, gun goes off, fall into rhythm.
Funny story:  the Tobacco Road is a crushed gravel trail. Basically, this race weekend was the most type B weekend of my life.  I had no idea it was a trail race because I didn’t read the website.  Honestly, I probably wouldn’t have done the race had I realized, but fortunately “trail” meant a nice crushed limestone / hard-packed dirt, tree-lined path.  
The course elevation map looked hilly.  I thought the race was going to be hilly.  Then people told me, no!  the course if very fast and flat!  I have determined that when you have a race in your hometown, you decide it is either the hardest, hilliest race in the country, or the flattest and fastest. Well, this race was neither.  The first 2.5 miles (and subsequently the final 2.5 miles) were moderate rollers, while the middle miles on the tobacco trail were long, gradual inclines / declines.  There were a few areas that were more treacherous than others, but nothing worse than that random gravel path we had to run down at the Trials.  
My plan had been to start at 5:45 effort and make adjustments as necessary.  Fortunately we warmed up on the first mile of the course so I realized that 5:45 effort was going to be significantly slower, because of both the wind and the hill.  My first mile was ~5:52 (I think).  I had overheard eventual race winner talking on the line with someone and make plans to go for 73ish min.  My plan was to let her go, then reassess the situation at 4 miles and figure out what I needed to do to catch her.  Meanwhile, within the first mile it became apparent there was going to be a struggle for second.  A woman was right with me, and surging hard to try and drop me.  
Tumblr media
photo cred:  Andie.  Taken ~2.5 mi into the race before the wheels fell off
A big goal of mine this year has been to compete more.  To be honest, I don’t love this situation.  I am very comfortable running alone.  I don’t love to do battle at the time (of course if I come out on top I’ll tell you otherwise).  So, every time she made a surge, I went with her and then put in a surge of my own.  I did this 4 or 5 times before dropping her for good, around the 6 mile mark. Splits that I remember:  3 miles, 17:30, 4 miles:  23:04; 5 miles:  28:50, 6.6 miles:  38:00. The way back was a death march of sorts. I’m not sure what happened. Certainly the way back had more long, gradual climbs, which are not as easy for me as steep hills (they never have been; I think it’s just the way my body is built and the fact that I grew up training in the dunes).  Also, I definitely thought the wind was in my face on the way out, but it turns out it was most certainly in my face after the turnaround (there was talk of a shifting wind conspiracy.  I would have to agree).  
Something I noticed during the race was that I was far less concerned about where I was on the course because my only goal in the short term was to stay in 2nd place. I knew that I was gaining on first, but I was also on the struggle bus myself.  There was a very real feeling at mile 8 of just get through 1k at a time.  
Final finishing time: 1:17:43.  
Am I happy with that? No.  To be honest, I am pretty disappointed.  But, I also realize I am incredibly fortunate to be able to say that a sub-78 minute half marathon is a “disappointment,” especially when I earned enough money to cover a student loan payment, a car payment, and a couple weeks of groceries.  It’s also a matter of perspective.  When I was training for my PR marathon, I ran a 5 mile road race 7 weeks before Twin Cities. I ran 28:45 and was beyond ecstatic with a new PR.  Today, I went through 5 miles in 28:50 and still had 8.1 miles to go.  7 weeks out from the trials I ran 1:17:19 on a course that was flat and didn’t have gravel.  To quote Brene Brown, the middle is messy, but that’s where the magic happens.  
I have had quite a few setbacks recently.  It’s hard to acknowledge setbacks, but also not allow them to let you feel like you’re spiraling out of control.   
My coach reminded me today that I strive way too hard for perfection, when all I have to be is good.
Regardless, I asked Coach Dean if I could set up an appointment with him this week, because I think a mental game tune-up never hurts.  
Even though I consider myself a highly Type A person, I did a whole lot of Type B things this weekend:
-have no idea I was running a trail race
-have no idea what time the trail race started (there was a point in time where I banned myself from running 7 AM races because it requires waking up at 4 AM…)
-wait to get my bib number until the last possible minute, then get stuck running down a highway
-forget to grab my gels when I went to the starting line
The great thing, though, is that none of this bothered me.  I think there was a point in time where I would have freaked the f*ck out if any one of these things happened, let alone all of them.  
So, what would I have done differently?  Absolutely nothing.  77:43 is where I’m at right now.  It’s not the worst place in the world to be, that’s for sure.  I wish I was faster, but all I can do about that is keep working and making the right investments into my training.

what the universe has taught me about living my best life
I haven’t written on this blog in months, as I’ve been caught up with school, work, and travels. I have been meditating and writing in my journal instead though, a habit I’m proud of and definitely want to continue. I also want to share some things here, especially as I’ll have a bit more free time to write and channel my creativity throughout the summer. I can honestly say, the past year has been the happiest and most amazing year of my life. I turned 20 last October, fearful but excited to end my teen years and embrace adulthood. Moving out of my small hometown, expanding way past my comfort zone, traveling, and falling in love have all changed my life for the better. There’s some points in particular I wanted to draw on, about ways I have cultivated more love and mindfulness everyday, and in return significantly improved the quality of my life. I apologize in advance if some of this is cheesy, just hear it out and give it a chance though! 
☽ Appreciate each phase and live in the moment. If there is one thing the moon has taught me, it’s that things change everyday, the phases will continue and she will go through her cycles. She has taught me to be present, rooted in the moment, in where I am and who I am right now. I’ve always been a dreamer, always thinking about what’s next, where I’d rather be, who I’d rather be. I remember in high school, I was honestly pretty miserable most of the time because all I thought about was being somewhere and someone else. In reality though, when I look back on my life in high school, it was actually really great. I have many good memories and stories, I just didn’t appreciate it enough at the time. Instead, I wallowed in my own misery for literally no reason. Each phase will end, whether you want it to or not. Soon, I’ll be done with college and enter a new phase in my life, and I’m glad I’ve grown up to be more appreciative, more present, and more in love with myself and my life now. Appreciate and be present in whatever phase you’re in now, because it will be gone and different tomorrow. 
☽ Play. Growing up doesn’t mean losing that childhood innocence, your sense of adventure, or your playfulness. If anything, you’ll need your child-like energy more and more the older you get. For a while, I took adulthood way too seriously. I have the blessing of working with kids, and they remind me everyday to laugh and not take things too seriously. Many of my friends, as well as myself, have experienced crippling anxiety throughout our teenage years, because life is fucking hard and scary. Sometimes you need to walk barefoot in the grass, roll down a hill, blow bubbles, watch cartoons, eat candy, and imagine you’re a mermaid. Getting into the rave scene and culture are one of the main things that have also reminded me of this. It’s amazing to see all kinds of people, grown ups from the real world, gather wearing shiny, silly clothes, and glitter to dance and vibe together. We need things like this to remind us life doesn’t have to be so serious all the time, and to allow us to judge less and love more. Remembering this and embracing that innocent, playful energy will unlock so much creativity, compassion, and imagination you have within you. 
☽ Life is full of paradoxes. My favorite one is that life is short, but it’s also so long. You’re here now, and you don’t know if you will be tomorrow, so live a life you’re proud of and leave a mark on the world and the people around you. Be exactly who you want to be remembered as. At the same time, it’s important to remember that there is no rush. You have your whole life ahead of you. You will get to places better than what you even imagined. Take it slow. There’s this cultural attitude of needing to finish school and get a job as soon as possible to be happy and successful. As real as this is, it’s also bullshit because there’s so much more to us than that. Why rush into getting a 9-5 job when you’ll have until you retire to work and make money? You’re told to get AP credits, take more classes, and you’re praised if you graduate early. But for what? Take a gap year if you need it, take less classes if you’re overwhelmed. Take your time because there’s no reason to chase material things and undermine the quality of your learning and the quality of your life. I’ll probably be 25-30 before I finish my degrees, but it’s okay because there are endless opportunities for learning, making money, and growing in a real and authentic way until then. 
☽ Move your body everyday. Something as simple as going on a walk in the morning or doing 20 mins of yoga can improve your life and make you feel better. From insomnia, to depression and anxiety, to physical pain/chronic illness, I’ve seen movement and exercise change lives for the better. We all know exercise releases endorphins, which can boost your mood, help reduce physical pain, even boost your memory and focus. Our culture is obsessed with aesthetics, and working out can suck if you don’t feel great about your body. It’s easy to compare yourself to insta fitness models or experienced yogis, but everything is a process, you have to start somewhere and you have to start with a goal of just feeling healthier and happier. For the longest time I just did ab workouts and squats because I wanted a certain body, but I realized eating food I liked, and doing a simple and easy yoga routine some days felt better than forcing myself to workout and eat healthy. Throw away the scale, don’t count calories or protein, don’t look for physical changes. Move your body in a way that feels good, eat whatever you’re craving, take care of yourself from a place of love and authenticity, and you’ll be surprised how much better you’ll feel on a regular basis. Plus, the gains and strength will come along, too. I’m still working on this as well, but swimming, doing yoga, and going to the gym have helped me feel stronger, sleep better, and have less back pain from my scoliosis.
☽ Go outside. You came from the earth, and to the earth you will return. Feel the sun on your skin, the cool water on your feet, the rocks and sand through your fingers. Connecting with nature, not only by physically being outside more, but also eating more naturally, has beautiful effects that are hard to even describe. The earth has everything we could need as humans, she gives abundantly and has the power to heal us. As humans, we need to spend time with nature, the man-made society and structures we live within can sustain us, but we will never be able to connect, be as conscious, or be whole without returning to our roots. I like to have plants, sage, palo santo, and crystals in my room so I can have more connectivity to earth even when I’m indoors. The relaxing, euphoric effects from spending time outside and in nature cannot be felt or imitated with anything else. It is so grounding and uplifting at the same time, and connecting to the earth is definitely on of the main things that has improved my life. Also travel. See as much of the earth as possible. It will teach you things that nothing else can. 
☽ Meditate. Write. Listen to music. Read books. Expand yourself through multiple avenues by trying new things. I never thought I’d be into crystals or meditating or any of this spiritual shit, but instead of judging myself or others, I just decided to give it a few tries. Meditating is amazing because in a world where our brains and eyes are constantly being given information, fed images, and told what to think, it can be so hard to even hear your own thoughts and feelings over all the noise. We also live in a ‘productivity’ culture, so taking a few minutes out of your day to simply sit with yourself and breathe can be so necessary and useful. Meditating reduces my anxiety, makes me a better person to be around, and helps me deal with situations and make decisions from a place of clarity. It also helps me feel closer to myself, so I trust myself and my decisions more and overthink less. Journaling and writing has the same affect. I like to make gratitude lists in my journal, and manifest goals by writing them out after I meditate. This can seem really out there, but meditating and journaling can make some serious shit happen in your life. You’ll be amazed at the calm it brings you and when things you manifest become reality...whoa. Music and reading are also extremely elevating. I could write a whole other post on those two things alone and the incredible benefits they’ve brought into my life. Listen to an artist or genre different from what you usually listen to. Read a book you normally wouldn’t, just for fun. It’s incredible how much these simple acts of stepping outside your norms will allow you to expand and grow.
☽ Cannabis and psychedelics. If you’ve read this far, that’s amazing and why I’ve saved this fun point for last! I started smoking weed in high school, like many people, and I fell in love right away because I felt how it helped me relax, reduce anxiety, and sleep better. But it wasn’t until the past several months that I really began embracing cannabis as my medicine. As I’ve mentioned, I’ve had chronic back pain and anxiety, and nothing has helped me more than cannabis. It has also helped me gain weight (I was underweight for many years), so I am much healthier and happier now. Weed makes me a better person to be around and it has improved the quality of my life so much. Thankfully, it is becoming more and more acceptable in our country/culture, I even had the exciting experience of buying from a dispensary recently. It really bothers me when people think of weed as a ‘dangerous drug,’ because it is the most amazing, healing plant medicine. I’ve also had a few acid trips and tried Molly in the past year, and psychedelics did and still do intimidate me, but they are so powerful. Tripping isn’t going to make you ‘find yourself,’ but it can be a really useful tool in your journey for expanding your consciousness, your creativity, and allowing you to feel more love and openness. Cannabis and psychedelics help me shed my outer layer, one of anxiety, judgement, shyness, and normativities. Instead, allowing my mind to elevate and be open to love, new perspectives, and a deeper connection to the world around me. I truly believe if used properly, these things can have immense benefits and improve lives. 
I’m no expert in wellness or healing, I just wanted to throw out some mindsets and activities in particular that have helped improve my life immensely. I’m on my journey, just like everyone else, learning and growing everyday. I am so grateful for the woman I am blossoming into, and I never even imagined being able to feel as much love and joy as I do. I hope you were able to take something away from these points, and if anyone would like more specific suggestions, from books to yoga to music, please let me know!

CHARACTER BASICS
FACECLAIM: Jamie Chung
NAME: Noelle Park
AGE: 28
BIRTHDAY: January 11, 2992
OCCUPATION: Veterinarian
HOMETOWN:
PETS: Zuko (Dog)
POWERS
Her powers deal with lightening. On typical days she can control and conjure small amounts of electricity and wield it as she pleases, but when a storm passes her abilities are much stronger. 
BIOGRAPHY
Min-Jee was a spirited woman when she was young. It was her free spirit, beauty, and love for nature that caught the eye of Zeus. They were together for a little over a year traveling the world, feasting on different foods, and just living life with what they had. All seemed to be paradise until Min-Jee announced she was pregnant. Apparently Zeus had no interest in raising a child, and fled shortly after the news was announced. Broken hearted and quickly running out of options, Min-Jee returned home to North Korea to face the wrath of her family. They’d warned her about running off with someone outside of their customs, but their daughter didn’t want the safe option. The safe option was Jacob Park who was a North Korean American boy living in the states that Min-Jee’s father had met through business. He was infatuated with Min-Jee and wanted her to move to Hawaii to live with him.
Since a pregnancy didn’t deter him and Min-Jee was done with adventures, she agreed to beginning a life with Jacob. They were wealthy due to Jacob’s business connections in hospitality on the island, and Noelle was sent to the best schools from the moment she was in preschool. Everything had turned around for Min-Jee except for the fact that her daughter held much of the same spirit she had when she ran away with the girl’s birth father. Noelle had no interest in people pleasing, networking, following orders, or even a path for that matter. Her mood was much like the weather. Like lightening, she rarely wanted to touch the same place twice, so the girl was always moving. As soon as she was old enough, she was out exploring Hawaii as much as she could. There were many times local authorities had been called because she hadn’t returned at sun down, and she was found laying on a tree branch or meditating on a hillside. No matter how many restrictions were placed on her, Noelle found a way around them.
It wasn’t until she was older that she understood why she seemed to accidentally shock people so often, or why her moods changed so much with the coming rain. Her parents were as normal as could be, so her having any sort of special abilities didn’t make sense. Since she hadn’t been stung by a radioactive jellyfish while surfing, she decided the only thing she could do was snoop. Whenever left alone, she’d rifle through her parents’ things to try and get an explanation. It wasn’t until she looked through a well hidden, wore down shoebox that she got her answers. In a letter that obviously never reached it’s destination she read that Jacob wasn’t her father, but instead she was a daughter of Zeus. Feeling lied to and betrayed, Noelle began to distance herself more than ever. She focused on school, so she could get into veterinary school to make enough money for herself. If her own family couldn’t be honest with her, then she’d make sure that she was self efficient.
During college, she travelled abroad, made as few connections as possible, and lived life as well as she could. Her parents made their lack of support clear, but it didn’t matter. Noelle’s grades were so great she didn’t need their money, and therefore had little reason to go back home. It wasn’t until she missed the tropics that she began searching for a home she could love almost as much as Hawaii.
That was what led her to accepting a job offer in Icaria. It would be the first time she laid roots anywhere, but Greece had many islands she could explore. Fear of being tied down didn’t set in just yet.

No insurance on car used to drive child around in?
How can one go about handling the possibility that a child's non-custodial parent is driving their child in a car with no insurance. Recently, a friend of mine told me that if a parent has a car accident and a child in injured in a car with no car insurance, medical insurance won't cover expenses. Is this true? If it is, how do you suggest the custodial parent go about asking for proof of insurance from the other parent. The parents don't get along very well, and the non-custodial parent doesn't like to talk details with the other parent, even when she tries. My only thought was for her to give him notice of this policy and should something ever happen, try to hold him responsible for all expenses. Still, this does not handle the safety issue at hand. Any ideas? Simply asking the non-custodial parent to show proof would not work. His style would be I don't have to show you anything.""
If you pay your car insurance for the whole year but sell that car with in the year?

How do you handle car insurance on a road trip with multiple drivers?
I'm going on a road trip from Canada to the US, and we have four people driving (including the owner of the car). Since any accident (no matter the driver) will impact the insurance of the car owner, what's the best way to deal with an accident? Driver agrees to pay direct costs associated, if anything were to happen? (though it may still impact their car insurance premiums in the long term?) Pre-pay an informal fee like $100, and if an accident happens you are absolved? If no accident, then it's free money for the car owner? How do you equitably handle it? The trip hasn't happened yet, but I figure it's best to iron out issues now rather than when it actually happens, then we become bitter enemies.""
Can you really get auto insurance for less than $30 per month?
I have been amazed with all of the TV ads and online ads showing young adults claiming that you can get auto insurance for under $30 per month. I am 48 years old, live in Los Angeles, have a clean driving record, no tickets or accidents in over 10 years. So I went to my neighborhood insurance broker a few weeks ago and he told me that the only way a person could get the minimum insurance required by the state of California, they would have to be at least 70+ years old, driving a 70's Buick, with a clean driving record. LOL!!! Yet since I just seen a commercial on TV a few minutes ago, showing the typical young adults (between 18 to 25 years of age) so happy and perky that they are able to get auto insurance for less than $30 a month, I figured I would toss this question out to Answers Yahoo to see if there are any such insurance companies here in California, that offers the basic auto insurance required by law in California for someone my age and with my driving record for less than $30 per month.""

I was supposed to get my G2 permit in August. I've already prepared it for the road for the but I am in Ontario and the driving strike is still going on.

My mom made a good good...why not insure the car under HER name at a DIFFERENT insurance company, and put me as a secondary driver? That way I can enjoy the great prices and hell I bet she can have some fun driving this car. The car would not be insured itself, it will only be insured incase I hit someone and damage them. Would this affect her insurance rate at her other main company( 2 cars,house,boat)? Thanks!""

Car insurance for teenagers!!?
I'm currently 19, I've held my driving license for 9months, since February. I've done the pass plus thing which in my opinion and everyone else's opinion a waste of time as it doesn't really save you that much off car insurance. Car insurance for me and my friends are through the roof, the only way to get lower car insurance is to get ourselves named as a named driver through our parents as they've got many years worth of no claims bonuses. Or to even change the address of where we live, such as a family or friends place, which is away from London and off the public roads. car insurance is a cheaper that way, as well as if you pay it annually instead of in monthly instalments. I work and basically want to get a car that is relatively cheap to insure, around the 1000-1500 mark not 4000 mark. I've tried fiat punto's, corsa's, the lot and they all seem to give me quotes of 4000 when the car is worth like a 1000. Its absolutely ludicrous, I want to be the owner of the vehicle so I can start my no claims bonus, otherwise my insurance will be high for some time, but i don't want to pay 4000 or go as a named driver as i will not work on my no claims bonus. Any suggestions? I both want and need a car, buying the cars not a problem, running the cars not a problem, paying for road tax or MOT's is not a problem it's just the insurance which is the main problem!!! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! :) Thanks in advance-Mike""

Can I insure a Car under My Insurance if I am not on the title?
I just bought a used car and had my fiance's mother finance it under her name because she got me a 7% APR which is really good compared to what I would have gotten. The finance guy at the dealership said to just have the car under her name to get that great rate and leave me off the loan completely. I will be making the payments, driving it, & insuring it. She is just the person who's name is on the title (so I could get that great APR rate) Now, I was just wondering, can I insure the vehicle under my policy even though my name is not on the title? I am kind of worried that my insurance company will not let me insure the car because my name is not on the title. Does anyone have any experiences or knowledge about this sort of thing? Thank you for your help""

Estimate on how much my car insurance will be?
I'm financing a new (or relatively new) car pretty soon, it's probably going to be a Nissan Altima which is a very safe car and is probably going to be either brand new or no more than 1 - 3 years old. I'm just worried about how much I'm going to be paying for full coverage insurance because I haven't had a car in a couple years thus I haven't had car insurance in a while and when I did, it was only no-fault insurance. Also, I'm young (22) so that will make my insurance high. However, I have a spotless driving record so that should help. I also live in a safe county if that matters. Anyone have a ball-park figure on how much I can expect to be paying, monthly? Thanks.""
