I have heard people say in their cynicism that the world is full of bad business. This very thought torments me, the idea that no one truly means what they say because they mean it, says what they say because they want the other person to hear it, the idea that all is utterly selfish.

I just went on a really fun camping trip to far away nelson county, bear country of course. ben c. and I were up really late, till about 4:30, just figuring out how to work propane tanks, talking about the universe, and talking about other important stuff.

Heya, basically, this passed weekend was hell, and then the week following has been great. My parents tried to stop me from going to the prom with Hanh over the weekend, so I spent the whole time fighting and arguing with them...but then finally they decided to compromise, so now I'm extremely happy. Anyhow, I felt really weird last night because ( Read more... )
