Philly --> Pitt
I’m ridin a bus. Heading home. Current leg, Philadelphia to Pittsburgh. I’m sitting between two guys yelling across me in some middle-eastern language. Wondering why they didn’t just sit next to each other and let me have a seat by myself. One of them is hacking and weezing an may have just hocked a lugie (I don’t know how to spell it!) tight onto the floor next to him....

A cool summer morning. Deep green dewy fields. Clouds flying so low that you could shoo them away if you cared to. Trees scattered along a highway landscape. Wipe sleep from your eyes as you look around to find a sight you recognize only from childhood memories, from countless trips to the grandparents’ farm or the cousins’ houses. In the distance now, a dense cityscape, sprawling out...

I need to move out. Of this house. My mother hates me. My father is incompetent. Everyone knows that we do not get along. My family and I, I mean. It’s really my fault, and it’s no surprise, but I think that the reason that I don’t care how I act around here is because I don’t care what they think of me anymore. I’m never going to be good enough for them or...

Dear Mum,
So to be clear: if I transfer out of engineering, you say I’m going to be miserable. No, don’t pull that with me, you just said it, just now. No, I cannot know the future, or what will make me happy, but neither can you. I can tell you right now that I am absolutely miserable in what I am doing. So if I stay, I know I’ll be miserable, but if I go, you say I’ll be miserable....

Tell me, what’s the point to preparing for the impossible promise of future happiness if I’m miserable with what I’m doing now? My life is already very much underway.

A reevaluation of my beliefs
Unfortunately, in life, not everyone is fortunate enough to have the means to chase their dreams. However, if you are fortunate enough to chase your dreams, do so. You owe it to yourself. You owe it to every person who is working a job they hate, just to provide services and products that we take for granted every day of our lives. You owe it to your parents for the blessed situation you’ve...

Multiple crises averted last night. Exhausted, after a good run, too. And the little sleep that I got didn’t help much.

Something I wrote while worrying yesterday
When I get confused and spun about, I realize that I have time to think. I focus on enjoying and appreciating my life now, and becoming the best person that I can be or my future. I work out and stay in shape. I work to make money, to pay back college. I eat sleep, and breathe. I build relationships. I learn to care, rather than convict. I keep contact. I continue my passion and hobby of music. I...
Oh and about that run I’m gonna take tomorrow morning, I left my running shoes at home =(
