Walk of Shame
Regret: feeling sad, repentant, or disappointed over something that has happened or been done. I don’t have regrets, ever. This thing, slash predicament, that I’m in literally makes me want to die. Seriously, kill me. The suck ballz thing about it is that I can’t fix it. It makes me uneasy thinking about it. In some ways I’m glad it happened so that I know NEVER to do...

Yamalama, Meow.
I am trying not to lose my head. The people here are so consumed in their addictions and worthless dependencies. I am striving with all my might not to get caught up in it. Drugs and alcohol are a big thing here. I think from time to time those sort of spontaneous things are aloud to take place but on a regular basis not so much. If I let myself free fall into the unknown then I am not sure I...

short and sweet
I am currently sitting in my new living room watching Matilda with my kick ass roommate Savannah. We bought a fish today, his name is Lebron. Yes, like Lebron James. I completely forgot how incredible this movie is. Why am I so good at memorizing lines from movies and songs but not school material? This blows chunks.
So, college is going quite well so far besides the whole not having a solid...
College?
It’s funny, college. All my life I grew up wishing I could go to college far far away. I claimed I would go as far as Dublin or Italy and even threatened to run away on numerous occasions. In fact, I did succeed in that wishful rebellion. Oh yes, third grade, ran away from school during recess, got infested by seed tick poison due to excessive parties of ticks crawling all over my body, and...
Wagon Wheel- Old Crow Medicine Show
Yeah, Reality
The weekend began in the Zegel Mobile with Joseph driving, Mark in the passenger seat, and I in the back. The best thing about this two hour car ride up to Knoxvegas was Mark Buente’s clever display of his buttox through the rider window. Fast times in volvo’s. The entire rest of the night was spent with me flying solo with eight boys. I transformed into Pat from the movie Smart House...
Big Time Swagger
So I had this astounding realization moment in the car tonight while I was driving home from hanging out with some of my best friends. This realization comes and goes just like any other sudden comprehension. I have always been thankful for what I have and of course every Thanksgiving my mom makes me write down ten things that I’m thankful for but this time a sensation something serious came...

Kick Ass
The movie Kick Ass may just be my first and a half favorite movie. I mean everybody knows that The Goonies is my favorite film of all time. I apologize to all my friends whom I’ve made sit through the truffle shuffle and me reciting every word, sound, and movement of the entire movie. I actually am not sorry, I just have way too much fun watching your faces get furious with angst towards me,...
surreal
Libby Lewis left two days ago and that night was the first breakdown of many. I drove home crying and wishing things didn’t have to change. My best friend left this morning, Mary Grace Shafer. Ellen, Claire, and I woke up at 5:30 am and got to her house at 6 in order to have fifteen minutes left with her and experience her last moments on Saint Ignacious and yet it still hasn’t hit me...
