« Previous EntriesLucy and I
Saturday, January 9th, 2010The following is the exact text of a paper I wrote for a psychology class last semester. The assignment was to write about a part of my life that affected my total development. I wrote about the girl whom I’m having lunch with in 45 minutes.
Lucy and I
I will call her Lucy in this paper. [...]
My bones are shaking.
Monday, December 28th, 2009If you haven’t ever gotten to the point where you think you might explode, maybe you haven’t put in enough effort. If you’re comfortable with the way things are, perhaps you haven’t looked at the way things really are. If you think you’re doing everything you can, you should probably be pressing on.
Why aren’t you [...]
Love rymes with a hideous car wreck.
Saturday, December 5th, 2009Jesus blesses the little children. Society oppresses the little children.
Strife is coming.
Vayelech Avram. Abram WENT. He went not knowing where he was going. He went with reason to believe he’d never see his father again. He went ‘to the place that God will show him.’ He didn’t even know the destination. He went [...]
The Nonplanner
Thursday, September 17th, 2009I am conducting an experiment. It shall last exactly as long as it does. I have been trying half-assedly to be a non-planner for a while, but now I feel like really not planning.
I also feel like putting down a few thoughts that I suppose have become mantras for me. They mean [...]
Nothing To Do But Exist
Monday, June 29th, 2009“I think if I had one second in your brain, I would completely implode,” she said.
“Yeah, man, can I make a documentary about… just you? That would be the sweetest thing ever. We can just drive wherever and I’ll give you complete freedom as long as when I say it’s time to move on, we [...]
Lessons in Suffocation: Part 3
Tuesday, February 24th, 2009Today I am going to wrap up and reflect on the previous two posts (post one) (post two) in a different voice / tense than before. This post will make more sense if you’ve read the two posts linked above.

I neither regret things nor hate people. Doing so wouldn’t undo the events, unspend the time, unbruise [...]
Lessons in Suffocation: Part 2
Wednesday, February 11th, 2009Here is the continuation of this post, which I am linking despite it being the post directly beforehand. You should probably familiarize yourself with the beginning before you jump in here.
I don’t know what I was. Insane? In love? Stupid? Weak? Kidding myself? Naïve?
Some of these may go hand in hand, in fact. Whatever [...]
Lessons in Suffocation Part 1
Wednesday, February 4th, 2009Thumbing through my posts will tell you a great deal about me. It’s strange, though, since I seem to be completely contextless sometimes. I feel as though I have a great deal to offer the universe as far as advice and positivity goes, but why? Why does it incapacitate me sometimes when I know that [...]
I love being a Religious Studies major!
Wednesday, January 21st, 2009Here is the exact text of a paper I just wrote for my religious studies class. I’m not going to bother giving context, it is pretty easy to get. I love my life now that I’m doing what I want to in school. Kids, don’t be afraid to dream.
My religious tradition would most closely [...]
Webcomic of the [ATF] Installment #n+1 (i++?)
Monday, January 5th, 2009Whooooo. I haven’t written in far, far too long. Hello, I wish you all the best in whatever holidays or whatever you call new year, and if you’re like me — a happy day since they’re all the same.
I have been stumbling a lot having been home from school. A lot. (I’ve also been downloading [...]
