The End.
- I haven’t written on this in over a month. I’ve been extremely busy with work, with school, and with living in general. I feel like my priorities at this point equal more than just posting songs and photos I like on the internet for a few people to read. I know I have threatened to end writing on this before but I’m fairly certain that this is the end for now unless something...

Great American Adventure.
- As a lot of my friends are wont to do these days, my friends Steph and Gabbie are going out on a Great American Road trip. There’s a catch though, Gabbie’s moving to Seattle which a lot of other people are wont to do these days as well. To commemorate their Thelma & Louise-esque savage journey to the heart of the American Dream they’re documenting said journey on the...

How Come, Scaredy-Cat.
- Last weekend I found myself at a bar among four girls that are in the English department at NYU with me. It was a type of end of the year celebration to commemorate the fact that stretching our intellect hasn’t killed us yet, and because our other friends who are dudes in the department didn’t show up I was the lone male spokesman for the night. One of the girls asked me a question...
