out of hibernation

DA KINK IN MY HAIR 🤎🪮🧹 first of all, no you didn’t miss anything i was TRYING to keep it a secret. what started as fear of failure (cause i’m NOT speaking patois in front of y’all) became something SO close to my heart that i didn’t want to share fully. Stacy Anne has changed me. This baby challenged me, forced me to work out my own traumas and pain. She also brought the most joy, and freedom from fear. to my SISTERS, i love you. thank u for your unwavering support, for helping me grow. making me laugh and cry. from the moment we met, we knew how special this would be. y’all won’t get the chance to miss me. to yabbie specifically, thank u for letting me use our one-on-ones to vent. for keeping me safe through all of this. for giving me the option to step back when we weren’t sure if playing Stacy Anne would help or hurt me. your belief in me was everything. and DESPITE ALL ODDS we SWEPT with awards. and I won Best Lead for a role that I play in the second act for one scene. thank u thank u thank u. I love and believe you.

A week has been barely enough time for me to process this. The HoneyJam concert was incredible. The hugest thank you to everyone who came out to support us, the energy was WILD. “Predictable Story” means a lot to me (and now I’m learning means a lot to many others as well). I started writing the song 2 years ago (TO THE DAY) as the HoneyJam concert. Thank you to everyone who stayed during it all and those who told me they recognize the story within themselves. I have so many other songs that I can’t wait to share and the feeling of showing my work is almost medicinal so I’m not stopping anytime soon. This is just the beginning. ((I also found the video of me writing it. So much has changed.))

I am SO SO SO lucky to be a part of Honeyjam’s 2024 cohort and it would mean the whole entire 🌎 to me if y’all came to my FIRST EVER SHOW!!! I’ll be performing an original, ✨Predictable Story ✨(to be teased on my ig soon 👀👀) So honoured to be performing alongside such incredible artists!! Show is at TD Music Hall on August 29th at 8 pm! GET UR TICKETS (they’re in my bio 😘) quick sentimental moment - the hugest thank you to everyone who has supported me through this crazy crazy time. i love u more than i’ll admit out loud. this is just the beginning tho so keep ur phone on 😊 : : : : : #HoneyJam2024 #Qimora #LiveMusic #NewArtist #TorontoEvent #CanadianMusic #singersongwriter #emergingartist #artistdevelopment #torontolivemusic

crazy, i know. 😁

I DID IT! These past 4 years have been INSANE. I started acting again, I started the BSA and Drama Club, met the most earth-shatteringly incredible people, learned how to play guitar AND sax, wrote some fun stuff, started directing ;), fought a couple superintendents (never with fists though. soft hands), discovered that I have insane RBF, and tried to break these systems as often as I could. I was also diagnosed with ADHD and OCD (along with the standard depression and anxiety), which, w many other challenges that I’ll definitely write about at some point, completely rocked my shit. Thank you to the people who noticed that I wasn’t doing well, to the people who would hold my hand and walk me to class, the people who kept reminding me of why I should care, who breathed so much life and positivity into me, who believed in me when I couldn’t see it for myself. You saw potential in someone who had completely given up and I owe you all the world. I am so so so so so proud of myself. Some people I literally forgot to take pictures with bc I was so scatterbrained, but I love you all so much it’s crazy. As much as I complained (rightfully so cause Holy Name is SCARY), high school was a time I would never change. For all the people who told me I wouldn’t graduate, I got the Principal’s Award bitches. Pen would be so proud ❤️
