I had always hoped I’d never have to do this.But because my 18th birthday arrives in less than two months, the U.S. government is closing my case.

My name is Jesse Singh. I was born in Salem, Oregon to Dawna LaLonde and Preet Singh in 1997, and lived there until late 2000. I haven’t seen my father since I was three and have been trying to find him since I was about 10 years old. My search has been futile thus far and I am becoming more and more hopeless, so I have finally decided to come to the internet for help with the hopes that maybe social media will be the key to finding him

My fathers birthname is G.Preetvinderpal Singh, but he used to go by Preet or Jack. He was 23 years old when I was born, putting him at around 40 years old now. He is Sihk, from Malaysia, and is of Malaysian descent. I know he speaks English fluently and I believe that he also speaks Punjabi fluently, though I am not positive. The last known address I’ve found for him puts him in Quebec somewhere. My grandparents are Retired Major Kirpal Singh and Mohinder Singh, my great-grandparents are Sewa Singh and Thermo Kaur. I know there’s a very slim chance of me finding him but I have to try everything. I can’t put into words how desperate I am to find him. If you know him or of him or even of someone else who might know him, please feel free to send me a message here on tumblr or an email at jesse.singh153@gmail.com . I have more pictures available for anyone who needs more to be sure. Even if you don’t know him, please please please reblog this, so that maybe someone who does can see this and help. 

I’m not interested in money or anything like that. Honestly, i’m just a kid desperate to find their dad. Thank you to anyone who reads and reblogs this, it is very much appreciated!

Hi guys! A friend of mine recently got diagnosed with AML (acute myeloid leukemia). I’ve known Ian since we were in elementary school, and she is such a kind, passionate, and fun-loving person. She is the first Filipino table tennis olympian and she competed in the Rio Olympics (not an easy feat by any means!), but what the news articles won’t tell you is that she has an infectious laugh and unbelievably neat handwriting. She is an inspiration to me and to so many other people.

I really want to help her out during this time. I’m opening up emergency commissions for $20 each, the proceeds of which will be donated in full to help her recovery. Samples of my artwork can be found in my blog. Please message me if you’d be interested, or e-mail at yankaguchi(at)yahoo.com! You can read the official statement regarding her condition + local donation details here. Kindly keep her in your thoughts and prayers as well. 🙏

When you are writing a story and refer to a character by a physical trait, occupation, age, or any other attribute, rather than that character’s name, you are bringing the reader’s attention to that particular attribute. That can be used quite effectively to help your reader to focus on key details with just a few words. However, if the fact that the character is “the blond,” the magician,” “the older woman,” etc. is not relevant to that moment in the story, this will only distract the reader from the purpose of the scene. 

If your only reason for referring to a character this way is to avoid using his or her name or a pronoun too much, don’t do it. You’re fixing a problem that actually isn’t one. Just go ahead and use the name or pronoun again. It’ll be good.

Snezhana Soosh is a 37-year-old artist from the Ukraine. She recently began posting some heartwarming illustrations of a father and his daughter on instagram. The images are sadly not from experience as her own father was not part of her life. She hopes they’ll inspire young men, like her own son, to be present in their daughter’s lives when they have a family of their own. There are currently 14 paintings in the series, but hopefully she will add more. I absolutely love this! (Source)
