Hello, fellow Utopians! 

Four years ago, I stood in front of my freshman dorm, waving goodbye to my family. I was excited for the college experience and scared about being away from my family for the first time in my life. Fast forward to May 2025, when I walked across the stage receiving my degree in creative writing.

Since I spent so much money on said degree, I figured I should put it to some use🤣I started my career as a Freelance Editor for fiction and nonfiction works.

I know what it's like putting all your effort into a piece of writing, and worrying about what an editor may say. When you hire me, I'll enhance your story while retaining what makes it uniquely yours.

Creepy/Horror stories

Happy Sunday guys! On my last post Horror Results (just swing on by there if you haven't already *wink* *wink*) I said the scariest place in the world is a human's own mind. 

I got some answers on my Instagram. All of them pretty much agreed with me, but one. This person said "Heck nah. It can be one of the weirdest and most deranged things to exist, but it doesn't get that #1 spot." I didn't expect that type of response. 

Curious about why this person answered no I reached out to her and asked why she thought that. Her response was "The products of the human mind is the scariest thing in the world. What people think can be a bit messed up yea, but once they choose to act upon those thoughts; that's when it gets scary" 

I was shocked because I always thought the human mind was the scariest thing based on a person's imagination and thoughts. It never crossed my mind that the products of a human mind can be both great and scary. 

As promised, for those who are interested in creepy stories there is a YouTuber called Llama Arts and he makes animations to creepy stories. Another YouTuber called Mr.Nightmare voices over them. As you may or may not know I'm not really into watching creepy/horror videos. How did I get on this guy's channel? I have no idea, but the animations are cool and the stories are addictive. Here are a few videos from him

  

After watching this video, forget about having a big house. I'm going to live in a shack where it's impossible for someone to just live in there without me noticing. (I actually plan on living in a nice apartment, with some hi-tech alarm systems.)

I hope the parents paid this guy extra after what he had to go through.

Since Halloween is right around the corner here's a video for those who are going trick or treating. 

Make sure to check out and subscribe to both Llama arts and Mr.Nightmare if you want to see more of their videos

                                                               "If you're you, it doesn't matter if you're the most boring person in the world: someone will like you. You're not trying to be anyone else."-Lil Uzi   www.brainyquote.com/quotes/lil_uzi_vert

I like this quote because it's about being yourself. 

Why does a person have to change themselves just so someone would like them?

If a person tries to become someone other than one's self, he or she will be lost.

To love yourself is to know yourself.  Just remember there are always people who will like you for you. 

Guess Who's Back!!!

                           It's been a really long time since my last post. I had to take a break to think about the future of my blog. What is Hercoolutopia? What does that stand for?  I've been thinking about that for months now. Then it hit me... Hercoolutopia can be anything😃. Hercoolutopia isn't just a fashion blog or a writer's blog. Hercoolutopia is a utopia. It's going to be filled with so many creative things and it's an inspirational source for people.  

I did this in my health class😃

Fall is Coming

Fall is coming guys, so let's start it off with a cute outfit😃.  I haven't been posting as much as I want to because of school, but I will try my very best to post every Saturday. 

Of course feel free to comment and tell me what you think.  I will reply to you if you comment.

Girl Scout Event

On Saturday, August 19th  my mom, Lakia Fashae

(That Fashion Chick) and I were guest presenters for the Girl Scout Troops of Davis Homes and Pendleton Homes of Macon-Bibb County Housing Authority {MBCHA}.  This was my first time speaking out in front of a group and I was extremely nervous, but I got through it and I did a great job!  It was a fun experience teaching the Girl Scouts how to sew on buttons.

First week of high school done!

My first week of high school was good, I'm glad it's the weekend.  High school is really different. Basically, the friends you made in middle school are your friends in high school. I'm not saying that it's true or not, but just something I observed from my first week. Some of you might remember what it was like being a freshman and starting high school for the first time. Some people have siblings in high school so they know what to expect. Others like myself, have to go to school alone. Which I don't mind, but some people might want to have an older brother or sister with them so they can show them the ropes. Would you want an older sibling in high school with you, or are you just fine with going without any older siblings? Of course, you have your friends so you are not completely alone.  Also, how was your first year of high school?

Sorry Guys

I know I said I was going to post pictures of my bracelets that I made but I just got back from my dad's house and feel really tired for some reason. I promise to post the pictures tomorrow.

Hey Hey Hey

What's up guys! I know it's a little late but I hope u guys had an awesome 4th of July. For some summer break is almost over and for others, it might not be. I don't know about you guys, but I'm pretty excited for my first year in high school. I can't wait!!😆😆 Some of you are probably thinking why I'm so excited for school? Hey, I love school, but that's just me.

Anywho, I'm thinking about making some bracelets which would be fun. Just a heads up. I'm also thinking about talking about certain topics. Of course, you can voice your thoughts too in the comment section or on my Instagram page. So just look out for all that.
