The feeling comes and goes, but the more I consider it, the more I feel as if I am undeserving of enjoying the affection of a woman so perfect and, herself, deserving. By what justification can an imperfect man bask in the glow of consummate female perfection? To attempt to bind an aspirational but flawed [...]
Most, or perhaps all, of my attempts at writing something comprehensive and meaningful have failed lately, because it’s become very difficult to place my experiences and feelings into one overarching narrative. While at school, it’s somewhat easier, because I am in a routine and have obligations and schedules and interactions and reflections. In contrast, my [...]

I was pretty underwhelmed by our much-hyped Girl Talk show on Saturday night. There were definitely some upsides to the performance, which I’ll get to in a moment. But the show itself wasn’t that great. First, it started about 40 minutes late, and there was no opening act, not even a student DJ to keep [...]
… and say it. You know what’s hot? Girls wearing pinstriped pants are hot. Preferably light grey pinstripes, tightly printed, on smooth black fabric. And also, scratching. Scratching is totally hot. What else is hot? Sarah Palin, cheerleaders, and—as a matter of preference—either brunettes or women with black hair.

All down Washington Street, there are magnolias with huge white flowers popping out, and there are lots of big, full trees all [...]

It was actually two days of thoughts, big and small, but I really only remember the things that happened today, so I’m going to just blend them all into one. As you may guess, this is going to be one of those rambling stream-of-consciousness entries that jumps from topic to topic as they come to [...]
I’ve been trying to live life this semester so that every day means something important. I think that effort has been largely successful so far. I have met plenty of new people, taken some atypical chances socially, and have come to an inner peace regarding some relations that had been unsettled. I have begun mentoring [...]
Today I sat around and reflected on the lack of direction in my life. But really, I just ate a lot of food and watched the entire first season of Californication, which iTunes so nicely gave me in return for 24 of the dollars that I’m so desperately lacking lately. So, in a way, I [...]
