Carrie is a lifelong shop girl, working in high end luxury boutiques for over 10 years. She shares her stories finding humor in most situations, in the process she discovers that for most people their purchases are a reflection of their insecurities more than their need.

Here, I'll post a bunch of my past works I've done from school and for fun. I do Visual Communication and Design at my school so I'll be posting a few of my Visualisation Drawings, Observational Drawings, Media Trials and Final Outcomes ^-^ I'll also post some of my practice drawings I've done for fun (Mainly through copying from a screen). I also plan to start trying out to draw some of my favorite Anime characters/animals or even some Game characters ^-^ For the cover of this book, I've edited the hair and eye colour to make the girl look like me but the original picture is not mine and belongs to the original artist. If any of you need some editing for your pictures (Hair, skin, eye, clothing colours) Either comment or PM me and I'll try my best to help you out and give you my best result! Please do not take any ownership of my drawings as I am quite proud of my creations and drawings!

Get drunk on an over-worded observational short based on Tokyo Ghoul's white-haired Kaneki, told by a person who doesn't know what he was going through beyond that monotone façade.

Some people remember things so nothing falls apart. Some people notice what needs doing before anyone asks. Some people carry responsibility so quietly it starts to feel like air. And some people do all of it - without ever agreeing to. I Didn't Agree to Be the One Who Remembers is a quiet, companionable book for anyone who has become the keeper of details, timing, emotional smoothing, and unspoken follow-ups - and isn't entirely sure how that happened. This is not a book about fixing, optimising, or improving your life. It doesn't offer advice, strategies, or conversations to have. Instead, it moves through the ordinary, slightly absurd moments of over-carrying - the things that don't get written down, the effort it takes to explain, the relief of staying silent, the strange tiredness that lingers even after rest. There are no villains here. No dramatic awakenings. No pressure to do anything differently. Just a steady noticing of how responsibility becomes automatic - and what it costs when it does. Written as a series of brief scenes and reflections, this book keeps you company rather than pulling you forward. It doesn't ask you to change. It simply names what's been there all along. For readers who sense that "doing everything" stopped being a choice somewhere along the way - and want recognition without obligation - this book offers a place to sit for a while. Nothing needs to happen next.

Poems I wrote when I'm bored. Feel free to read and join me in my adolescent years 😆

A poem about my struggle being raised by an abusive parent(s). Rough-ish first attempt!

Gemma and her mom move across the country for her mom's job as a Middle School teacher and for a chance for both of them to hopefully finally start their lives over after tragically losing Gemma's father 3 years ago. Gemma is a typical teen; passionate about music, sarcasm and not much else. Nothing seems to shake her attention into the world until one day surprise, surprise, she meets this boy...

A poem about what I see when I look in the mirror

Ten years on from the original book, catch up with that British couple who moved to a big old house in the countryside of South Bohemia. We are not expats, we are British immigrants, trying our best to make sense of the society that is kind enough to host us. What's changed? Our English has got worse as our Czech improves. Our animal entourage has grown considerably and now we have a selection of wild and crazy Czech friends to keep us entertained. Settled, but Brexit looming, will we be able to keep home and hearth together? Or will we be forced to move on? Bohemian Antiks Continue is a gentle tale of rural life and animal adventures in a beautiful land not so far away from home.

A group of poems linked by my observations on life.

Expressing my anger for my life experiences, directed towards a certain "G"

Two guys, talking about each other's lives, and the state of their local church, in one special coffee shop: A minimalist, social satire comedy-drama interspersed with observations about social behavior, comments about society and the ways in which we can improve the world. Created by John Luke Gregorio. Inspired by the film "My Dinner With Andre," and the HBO socio-political crime-drama series, "The Wire."
