Was a year for personal growth and a lot of self reflection. A lot of postmodern bullshit, which was a lot to go through, but with the help of a few key individuals I’ve been at some of the lowest and some of the highest (quite literally) points of my life, and I’d trade the experiences for nothing, except maybe a few bricks of cocaine and dolce salato gelato.

Why I don't party in Mexico. →
I don’t mean to sound preachy, but if you smoke, there’s absolutely no reason you should be buying product that goes through Mexico especially in states where it’s legalized for medical use.

It’s Christmas time again, and I’m sad to say that every time it rears its cheery little head at me, I find it less and less exciting, less enthralling. It’s become a chore to haul dusty ornaments and miscellaneous knick-knacks from the depths of the garage, for me to decorate a tree alone and reflect on how each handmade ornament meant something to me once. It’s like an...
My mom just walked in, gave me a thong and left.
It’s times like these when I realize we are, indeed, related.
Tame rain
Every time I come home for break, it always starts to rain. Last winter, it rained for almost 3 weeks. Last spring, it rained pretty much the whole way through.
