The idea of love...
…both fascinates and frightens me. On one hand, we are all itching to experience it. To experience the good and the bad. The heartache and heartbreak. The feeling of being wanted, unconditionally. I think most of us though, are just fascinated with the idea of love. The feeling of being sacred and special by another person. It’s not something you can do single handedly. It actually requires...

Dear Mr. Frat,
Today we salute you, Mr. Fratastic. Even though you come from an upper class neighborhood, you still know how to buy the cheapest alcohol and have the worst hangovers. Your undying love for stout whiskey drinks, G.W. Bush, and country music is only surpassed by your undying love for Natty Light and drunken phone calls. With your Costas radiating a deep ocean blue frattiness to the world, you are...

"Let's grab a drink": The Recovering Frat Boy
caryrandolph:
During my five-year college reunion in May, I snuck into my old fraternity house, which at the time was being used as some sort of community service dorm. As I wandered about taking pictures, a student approached and asked politely, “Excuse me, who are you?” Instinctively, I turned around and yelled menacingly, “Who the fuck are YOU?” The girl scurried off, but the incident made me...

oh, Edward
So I’m currently re-reading Eclipse for the third time. And after almost a year of being away from the pages of this story, I can honestly say that I have fallen in love with Edward Cullen all over again. But this time around, I have paid extra attention, and tried to discover what exactly it is that makes this story so appealing. And I have come to find out that it is, in my opinion, nothing...

dear matthew: I like you a lot. I realize you’re in a relationship with someone right now and I respect that. I would like you to know that if you’re ever single in the future and you want to come visit me in Alabama, I would be open to spending time with you and finding out how old you were when you wrote your first song.
dear jonathan: I liked you too much. I used to be attracted to...

Listen
a few things on my mind:
-I’ve discovered I like being busy and having lots of things to do. Being lazy is nice, but it’s boring and I feel like I’m wasting my life.
-After watching only a mere 6 minutes of “Kendra” and her pregnancy woes, I don’t think I could ever manage being pregnant. How in the heck are you supposed to sleep?? And I like being able to see my feet when I look down,...
