You’re just reminding them of the mistakes they made back then. If you watch their facial expression carefully, then you’ll see the hurt in their eyes as they reminisce everything that happened.
Never use emotion as a weapon, it strikes deeper than you can imagine.

Post #500
I’ve been meaning to write all of this out, and I think I finally have the guts to do it. Don’t expect for it to make sense. Don’t expect to really understand a lot of what I’m talking about.

psychotherapy:
Why does music make us feel? On the one hand, music is a purely abstract art form, devoid of language or explicit ideas. The stories it tells are all subtlety and subtext.

I just need to accept that these are signs. The universe does not want me to be at Coachella.
Okay, universe. I get it. I won’t be going. Now stop screwing with me, and just let me be.
You're a waste of my time.
Simple as that.

Well, I finished writing a debriefing statement. Dumb IRB….they won’t even start to look at my application/protocol until I…

Horrible day.
My dinner plate just fell downstairs and broke everywhere. What an ending to my day…
January 23rd can suck it forever and ever. Nothing good comes of this day.
Frustrated.
One of my tutees just failed her first math test of the semester. Ugh. =[
Fucking relax.
The end.
Fingers crossed
If all goes according to plan, I have someone to go to coachella with me. And she’s rad. So there :)

Seattle Day 7... =[
LAST DAY. Time seriously goes by far too fast.
Woke up and repacked my bag, stripped my bed, and checked out
Left my bags in storage at the hostel
Walked around the market, but it was fairly dead. They’re doing a lot of construction and earthquake refitting for the buildings since its the off-season
Grabbed a cup of tea from the first Starbucks. Cool, man.
Bought some things- I ended up...

Ended up falling asleep for about half an hour
Watched episodes of Arrested Development
