I’ve once again fallen in love with my head.
I suppose I should backtrack a bit. Yes, my head and I had a bit of a falling out. My thoughts and worries and concerns piled atop each other in the weird little crannies in my head. These little malignant fuckers joined forces with a new quarter [...]

Sitting on a bar patio Friday night, feeling the cooling evening breeze soothing my sunburned skin while being surrounded by friends I haven’t seen in a while, I felt a lifting sensation. I looked around, trying to pinpoint what was going on. And then I realized it was happening internally. As my soul lifted, a [...]

Heavy thoughts

Feliz cumpleanos hermanito.

And to the rest of you, drink one for me tomorrow.

What you probably can’t see is what is in these letters. The first one? That’s the one that says I made Dean’s List. The one behind that? That’s the one that says I got into the Communications department.
SHIT YEAH.
Next time I bitch about doing homework and being busy, remind me about this day. Or even [...]

Those last four minutes of My So-Called Life cut to my emotional core in such a quick and effective way that I’m often left dumbfounded in its wake. This probably explains why I’m up at 2 am, feeling compelled to write after spending my evening in warm pajamas covered under a blanket, drinking tea, and [...]

Tomorrow is the due date. I’ve been pouring over my essay and investing more time into it than any of my papers combined. I was hesitant to mention anything, for fear of sad rejection and the subsequent online moping, but I figure if you guys can pool some positive thoughts for me I just might [...]

I’ll cut back on being wordy. I’m preserving it for my study abroad application and English paper due tomorrow. But since this weekend was pretty filled, I’ll post a little somethin somethin.
Enjoyed beautiful weather by going on a photowalk. Somehow ended up at Pike Place Market, where I bought the best artichoke known to man.

Got [...]

I can’t believe that just one week ago I was sitting in the middle of an empty living room, half-heartedly alphabetizing my DVDs in the midst of a complete emotional breakdown set to the soundtrack of music by Explosions in the Sky. I was in full panic mode: I had lost Dylan, my life was nothing, [...]

I wasn’t going to talk about it. But since Dylan mentioned it, I suppose I should throw in an update.
 ”It” is a change in my living situation. Gone are the days of the cramped and cozy apartment in Capitol Hill. No more tripping over random pieces of music gear and cords. Now the apartment holding [...]
