And for anyone who was wondering:
School was pretty great today, though very overwhelming. I’m very seriously considering quitting my job and taking out student loans so I can just focus all my time and energy on school and art and music. I’m planning on being in school for at least another 8 years, or however long it will take me to get a PhD, at which point I sincerely hope to have a job that pays well enough to pay...

Aahhh!
I feel so crazy! I’m re-starting college tomorrow after not being a student for 8 years, and the one year I spent in college after high school was so depressing and just bad, and I was a terrible student then, but I was also really lost and messed up, and I’m lost and messed up again this year but not in the same way, and I’m going to school so I can get a PhD and be a therapist, but listen to me!...

I am so fascinated by these creatures. Fascinated and disgusted.

Public privacy
There are a bunch of things I want to post, but I feel like they’re all too personal.
So why don’t we all just pretend I just posted a poem about a terrible childhood event, a nude photo, and a song someone once wrote about me.
There, that was easy.

Vacant stares and heavy sighs.
A lot of truly wonderful things have happened - and have yet to happen - this year.
If only I could remember how to be excited about any of those things, or anything at all.
