I Know Everything About Everything.
They say there are few certainties in life. But that’s not true.
Your mom is always right about how special you are, your dad is always right about a guy’s intention, and you can’t trust someone who doesn’t like chocolate. Europeans are condescending. No one is interested in hearing about your dream last night unless there is sex involved. No one will admit to being a fan of Train, but most people...

Because I dont like talking about the future.
Every day is a chance to be better, to evolve. Every year that we get older is an opportunity to let go of the things that hold us back, feel more comfortable in our own skin, and be able to laugh at ourselves in a way we couldn’t before. It’s so easy to focus on what we don’t have, when the trick to happiness is appreciating what we do have.
However, today isn’t one of those days. Today I’ve made...

The questions I ask myself daily.
#1 What’s it going to be like when people from my generation become politicians?
#2 How long is the US going to be controlled by Big Money? Is that ever going to end? Seems like it would be so much better if that just ended.
#3 How long am I going to stay in a relationship?

#7 Is Jon Stewart ever going to run...
A few things I am good at:
I am good at talking to people, drawing, writing, arguing, flirting, computers, thinking that I’m really funny, being awkward, laughing at my own jokes, makeup, spending way to much time laptop, sleeping, telling people to much information, facebook stalking, making jewelry, driving unsafely, making funny faces, singing in the car, harry potter trivia, worrying, making anything microwavable, story...
For my good friend D
Worst of all, there’s someone you love, and they love you back. Someone who seems so right until they tell you they’re not. You suddenly realize how front-stage it feels. Like a flash flood, it’s everywhere, and then it’s nowhere.
50 Things Everyone Should Know
The word “queue” is the only word in the English language that is still pronounced the same way when the last four letters are removed.
Beetles taste like apples, wasps like pine nuts, and worms like fried bacon.
Of all the words in the English language, the word ‘set’ has the most definitions!
What is called a “French kiss” in the English speaking world...

Half way through this term and I am exhausted. Seriously I am about to throw in a hundred moments of “I can’t keep going like this.” It kind of feels like every day is filled with the same stress and the same bullshit. I keep waking up in the morning with a sense of dread and go to bed feeling anxious. I am too young to feel this old.
I realized a couple weeks in that I just need something to...
On Loneliness. By Shalene Gupta.
I have heard that when death comes for us, he is accompanied by a welcoming party. They are all there, the gossiping grandparents who smelled like tangerines, the sweet neighbors who made god-awful lasagna, the pet snail named Squinky who got flushed down the toilet.
Privately, I suspect, that these are stories concocted to soothe our fears. We are so alone in life that we can not bear to think...
