Running on Empty

Image
The 20s are all about doing the most. There is no other time in our lives that will be like this. College is a microcosm of ideal situations that come together. With little responsibility save your own well-being, it's the best time to live life the fullest. Get as much out of what you are able to do daily here because sooner or later it'll be over and life changes, for better and worse. Adventure, explore, and exert yourself - what have you got to lose? You'll never know what you're capable of unless you push yourself; this is running on empty.   You know how people have that one thing they are super passionate and knowledgeable about? It's the thing that they can talk about endlessly and when they do their eyes light up. For a lot of guys I know it's sports, alcohol, or cars. I on the other hand don't care for any of the above but have learned a lot, particularly in the past year about them all. Learned the basics of rugby and lacrosse, nuances of brew...

Being a teenager is all about getting yourself ready for summer weather. It's all about suns out guns out, long hair don't care but never ever barefoot covered in soot (I made that one up but still, y'all nasty ass barefeet straight look bareback, put some shoes on ya damn hippie).

Let me rant about my disdain for the heat, sunshine and all the shenanigans that come with it. Ever since the snow melted and the sun came out, everyone has just gone straight that ish cray on this damn campus. Now it's blazing hot outside (like me breaking a sweat hot) and it's like the sun discriminates against me and attacks. Like go somewhere with that. Everyone lolligags and lays around outdoors (or pretends to study) getting their tan on, with minimal clothing, and ...

Taking the Stage

Being a teenager is all about being in the spotlight. It's about being the most memorable, and leaving your mark. What's the point of going through life or doing anything if no one is going to remember you for it? The ideals of being conceited, self-centered, or narcissistic always get a bad rep, but I'm here to argue against that. You've got to first take care of yourself and "get your life" (Tamar Braxton #catchphrase) before you can worry about anyone else. Almost ready to start taking the stage. Whoever came up with this idea that we're not the center of our own lives completely lied. Think about it, it only makes sense that we're the center of our own universe - who else do our own lives revolve around except ourselves? Think about this, every single TV show out there has a main cast for a reason. They can't tell everyone's story, and there has to be leads and then there's minor characters. Shows that takes place in high especial...
