I’ve been dealt some pretty shitty cards in my time but I learned to play with what I have. I will come home a winner no matter what.
Democracy in a nation of three hundred million people can be noisy and messy and...

Head is pounding and I want a motherfucking hamburger now!!

“We broke up over the phone then in his car a few days earlier. I cried. He cried. Yes, he cried which made me hate him a whole lot less. The circumstances made sense even if it felt like someone took my heart out, threw it against the wall and then sold it on EBay to some weirdo who ended up shooting into the sky with a potato launcher. In others words I was crushed.
For the hopeless...
Curiosity killed the cat but cats do have nine lives.
– -Me
I’m sure someone has said this before but I said this last night while talking to a friend. I’ve always been a curious person and I usually act out on my curiosity. I’ve been burned before but I want to try live life without any regrets or what ifs.
Wine?
Professor B: Why do you look like shit?
Me: No idea but thanks for noticing
Professor B: Come on! What is the matter?
Me: Nothing. I just haven't been sleeping.
Professor B: You need to start drinking more wine. You'll sleep like a baby. Trust me.
Me: Thanks for the advice.
Professor B: No problem. Now help me with these copies I need to hand out tomorrow.
Oh Hey!
A very old friend has come back into my life and it feels good. After years of not speaking you would think things would be awkward but it’s been the total opposite. It seems we have not missed a beat. Old inside jokes have resurfaced while new ones have been made. Some bonds break and are never repaired while others only fade away but find their way back to you. Nice to know I will always...

“It was the slap heard around the world. Ok, maybe that is pushing it a little but it was definitely the slap that changed the whole dynamic of our relationship. Peter* and I fought all the time but things have never really gotten physical. I do not for the life of me remember what the fight was about but I do remember things started to heat up when I found an economy pack of toilet paper under...

“I kept telling myself that I should have know better but it’s obvious that I didn’t. My problem really is that horrible little word hope. I have to much hope for you and I. I’ve let him back into my life even though I know sooner and never later he would disappoint me. Is it his fault though? I am the one holding on to the once was. So I can only blame myself for feeling...
Apart from everything, here's my issues with "My...

-Nobody yells “FREAK!” to the artsy girl at school. They are just as intimidated by her as they are the popular girls.
-Secret admirer is ALWAYS a cruel joke. Always.
-Why is she acting all persecuted when she’s actually prettier than most everyone there?

LIFE
I’ve been missing for a few days now and it sucks. Lost a few followers which always makes me a little sad but what can I do? My life has been pretty crazy. School has started again and received a promotion at my job which means double the work. Picking a grad school is no easy task and I’m still waiting to hear from Columbia. My memoir has been picked up by a publishing house and...

Your last letter was quite enough to make me worry about you. It was not a bit like yourself. Reading between the lines I imagine that your engagement to this girl is making you rather unhappy, and I see you have lost all the feeling of romance you had before the war. You make a great mistake if you think you can be a romantic without religion. Sometimes I think that with both of us:...
