This isn’t for anybody in particular. Just, whoever is reading this. If you don’t feel loved, or if you’ve been having a rough time with things and you’re ready to give up, or if you just feel like shit for no reason right now, or if your “friends” are treating you like shit, know that there is…
Aww this made me tear up a bit.

The best conversations.
When you’ve lost track of time, when you just feel that connection, that spark. When you’d look at your phone and see that it’d been more than an hour. Where you’d talk for so long, then suddenly think ”How did we end up talking about this?!” The best conversations are the ones where you don’t even need to worry or think of what to say.. you just do because you’re just that comfortable.
Yup,...

When is thinking too much?
If there’s anything most people know about me it’s that I am always curious. Not an annoying and nosy kind of curiosity, but I’d like to think that I have an insatiable mind. I’m turned on by intellectual stimulation. Assuming there’s no tension or uncomfortable audience, within a good hour I can easily range in topics from food varieties, to definitions of success v. failure, to...

smile and the whole world smiles with you →
I seldom read the sappy “Dear Abby” articles in the newspaper, but came across it over lunch and it reflects a lot of what I’ve been thinking (and working on) lately.
Here’s the gist of it:
“No matter what you wear, the expression on your face is your greatest asset or liability. Would you want to strike up a conversation with someone who looks like h/she is mad...

Very interesting article on our perceptions and portrayals of ourselves online.
Our online profiles give us the capability to put on different masks and multiple personalities that authenticity has essentially lost it’s meaning. We’ve become so enamored with broadcasting our status updates and keeping up with our “iconic selves” that we’re losing interest in real...

indecision
I’ll be honest, if there’s one thing I know I need to work on it’s my indecisiveness. You should all know me by now, I tend to go around in circles analyzing the process and consequence of every decision. I hate that I think too much and wish that I could push a button to stop it. I’d like to think that I still have a spontaneous, risque side that chases adventure on a...

cksaul replied to your post: vacation disbelief
Adventure is out there! You know I’m right there with you when it comes to this. Currently planning a winter international trip with a friend, and planning ahead to make travel a more constant part of my life. ‘bout ready to say FU to “normal” life!
Oh dear friend, do share your wisdom =) I’ve actually started a similar plan, but so far...
vacation disbelief
I took a bit of time to slack off and look through my old pictures. I looked at my trips to Hawaii, Belize, Vegas, NYC, DC, Chicago, Mexico, SE Asia, India, Japan etc and think “how the heck did that happen?” Of course they didn’t happen in succession, but still, just the fact that they happened seems surreal.
It’s just that I’ve been so drowned in work, bills and...
the "pro" in procrastination →
Although I tend to joke about working well under pressure or about putting the “pro” in procrastination, it’s not entirely a good thing either. I never really thought about the cause and effects of it until I read this article. As much as I’d hate to admit it, a lot of the items mentioned are things I can easily relate to.
Good wake up call to get shit done, NOW.
