stop procrastinating
Who cares? 23 months ago

Obviously, it’s not a good idea to procrastinate on EVERYTHING, but this is who we are. We produce spontaneously, under pressure. We don’t work well under deadlines. We focus more attention on things we care about. The left-brained world doesn’t value the same things we value, but that doesn’t make our priorities any less valuable. A lot of self-proclaimed procrastinators get through life just fine.



find beauty in unexpected places (read all 3 entries…)
Untitled 2 years ago

Awhile back, I was out on a Friday night with a few friends. Walking back to the car, we walked past this closed piano shop, and we noticed an old, unlocked piano sitting right outside the store. Something about randomly busting out into song in public in the company of a bunch of geeky friends while everybody else is out drinking and dancing just makes you feel so alive inside.



Overcome my eating disorder.
Thanksgiving 2 years ago

I was surrounded by condescending women who think I’m fat, ugly as fuck, unmotivated….I got really depressed and angry. But I didn’t binge or starve.

Granted, there was a lot of stuff I ate that I could have done without. But I didn’t binge or starve.

I actually drank a lot more water than I did soda.

How did everybody else fare?
