Caitlyn Slivinski: The Half Of It

Leather love and loose wires

You’re fickle. You’re charged up. You’re plugged in and connected, but like a teasing Sahara breeze that comes and goes, your shine flickers

Soldiering on in Sevilla

Feeling the wintery cold in the city famous for its scorching summers

I’m the pretty one!

When you pass out resumes here it is mandatory to attach a recent photo of yourself

Doctoring up pizza

It has nothing to do with medicine - I’m not dotting my pizza with aspirin

Happy New Year… now eat your grapes!

The New Year to me means paper hats and noise makers, countdowns on TV and watching "the ball" drop in Times Square

Walking in a winter wonderland

Cell phones ring, are you listening? In the stores, diamonds are glistening

Feliz Navidad!

"I’m finding out that Christmas in Spain is about Jesus, not Santa"

Punched in the face at the supermarket

It happened all of a sudden. It almost knocked me to the floor.

Dolla dolla bills ya’ll

Since absolutely everyone has been begging to buy me a Christmas gift, and I don’t blame you, I’m going to do my part and take the shopping burden off your shoulders right now

One, two, three… Yoga

MY legs are shaking. A flash of heat hits my core, crawling up my neck. I tear my scarf away; ten more seconds… five… three, two, one. Phew!

I miss your rolls…

I can’t stop thinking about you. I keep imagining I see you through store windows. I ask for you all the time. I even thought I found you once, but it was just an imposter.
