A year. Really? It slipped my mind. It's hard to believe a year has passed already since beginning a completely new life; even if so many things have happened. This "time travelling" feeling isn't new. In fact I've felt it many times before. I must've fast-forwarded to the…
Matt and Marc said we'd go for one; just one. Seven drinks later and I'm finally on my way home. Much to my dismay, I hadn't packed yet. I was drunk. I was leaving for an adventure that would span the better part of the month the next day. Drunkenly…
As I walk to work something feels different. I'm not sure what it is but it's not the same. Something has changed. I can't put my finger on it. The feeling persists for the next week without quit, and finally I figure it out. The thrill is gone. We have…

The past month has been a blur of fun. Since coming back from Christmas, I've been keeping myself busy as can be. Side note: I meant to get this out sooner, but oh well. Soon to come: The Wedding and Carnival. Fire Timmy, one of my roommate's friends from home,…
Walking into the changing room I was on edge. It had been a while since I'd been here. What was going to happen? Would it be as easy as it was before? Would I embarrass myself? These are just some of the thoughts racing through my mind as I started…
