At the end of some days, I just want to stop trying, to stop trying to find an answer by pressing keys and moving a cursor around a box, to stop trying to make everything fit. I mean, if everything doesn't fit, maybe the bag's too small, right? I just want to curl up with a good book or a good song or a good person and forget. Forget about a Bachelor's, about salaries, about taxes. And just be one of those people who is incredibly happy with or without university accreditation.

At the end of other days, I put a top coat on my toe nails and call it a day.

Sometimes I do both.

But really, college isn't too blame.

I see what I want, and I want it. Damn practicality! I've been practical enough.

That said, I'm going to go find an undeveloped, undiscovered bullshit acreage that most be left somewhere inside myself for an Economics paper. Sometimes, I worry that I'm going to run out. And then, I realize that's probably impossible.

Random Things

The leaves today with all the wind were blowing everywhere. The way they moved reminded me of a flock of birds. However, the sound of them all moving is kinda creepy, kinda sounds like a mass of insects scuttling. Yeah, I know, I have a lot of time on my hands between 4th&Gregory and my car.

Just one more day, and it might be alright. I might be alright.

If I show you yours, will you show me mine?

I don't consider "It'll be alright" an empty platitude, because, chances are, it will be. Alright that is.

I am in love with thepinkish leaves on the bushes by the Armory. Unfortunately, it turned cold today, and they'll all be gone soon.

My favorite/lucky number is 4. I prefer even numbers to odd numbers, even if odd numbers occur more often in nature. I add numbers together all the time, like 13 is okay, because 1+3=4. Chances are, that if I know you, I've added up your birthday in my head. And even though I might not remember your birthday, I remember what it added up to. My parents managed to have three children whose birthdays all add up to 4. I have no idea what that means, but it's kinda weird.

I used to mix up weird concoctions of drinks and make my little brother taste them. And once, my cousin and I used my Easy-Bake oven to make these cakes that were white on the outside and blue on the inside, and we didn't use any food coloring. We were both sick the next day and got to spend time together at my grandma's. I don't remember if that was a plan or a coincidence. With my cooking skills, prolly a coincidence.

I love this feeling.

Can you feel it?

Something's going to happen.

Something's definitely going to happen.
