i'm thinking about printing out this journal, deleting it all, and then starting over...it just seems that this no longer accurately represents where i'm at and what's happening in my world.  and i think i've set a tone here that needs to be forgotten, reworked and remeshed.

let me know if you still want to be part of the mix.  no worries if you don ( Read more... )

it's definitely a crazy ride at the moment.  lots of studying, lots of humidity, and a lot of craziness come friday.

yay!?

i totally screwed the pooch on the haikus, some got written, some didn't.  some dissolved into nights with BACs well above .20.  ahh...good times.
