I AM FINALLY BOUND FOR IRELAND.
I’ve waited I don’t know how long to finally go. Years now? Probably. Anywho, I’ll be back on the fourth with plenty of pictures and plenty more stories. Who knows? Maybe I’ll get to post some things in between.
Until then, here’s a song to give you an idea of what’s running through my head…
"The best way to find out if you can trust someone is to trust them."
Ernest Hemingway (via crookedindifference) (via mackycian)
"How strange it is. We have these deep terrible lingering fears about ourselves and the people we love. Yet we walk around, talk to people, eat and drink. We manage to function. The feelings are deep and real. Shouldn’t they paralyze us? How is it we can survive them, at least for a little while? We drive a car, we teach a class. How is it no one sees how deeply afraid we were, last night, this morning? Is it something we all hide from each other, by mutual consent? Or do we share the same secret without knowing it? Wear the same disguise?"
White Noise, Don DeLillo (via lo-phi) (via fuckyeahexistentialism)
And this is why Alex and I are friends :)
Unchill bro on the bus: (Complaining, probably about my purple shirt) “Why you gotta be so gay, bro?”
Me: (after his female friends laughed and looked for my response) “… Why, you interested?”

"The good men are in all ages those who dig the old thoughts, digging deep and getting them to bear fruit—the farmers of the spirit. But eventually all land is exploited, and the ploughshare of evil must come again and again."
Friedrich Nietzsche, ‘4. What preserves the species’ in The Gay Science (trans. W. Kaufmann), 1974, Vintage, 79 (via tracesoftraces) (via fuckyeahexistentialism)
In Response to 3am Sessions: Guilty →
I’m taking this moment in time to make an admittance,
I am guilty of being scared.
Scared of actually being who I really am. Of letting her out without restraint.
Sounds a tad dramatic but it’s been so long since I’ve actually been the core of me,
that I’m unsure what she would do. I’ve held…
Erica,
That shell emerged at the moment you were weakest. The moment you felt that there were things you needed to do in order to be a fully functioning member of society, you became distracted with fulfilling that role. The problem with that role is that it can never fully be fulfilled. Or at least, you’ll never realize it. Because there’s always the next task to complete. You’re filling an empty void. And so you don’t nourish yourself. And the inner you, what you refer to as the core you, gets hungry. And eventually, it wants out.
The beauty about this, though, is that you got hungry earlier than most. And by admitting it, and realizing it, and most importantly, feeling guilty about it, the process just became that much easier for you to reconnect with your core self.
The next step is to understand a primary duality that exists in our world: the conflict between your emotional and your logical states of mind. When we our children, we see the world through nearly no filters and almost completely emotional. We do things because we feel like it. But as we get older, logic seems to take over. We do things because in order to do this, we must do that; it’s only logical. Neither is good nor bad (a healthy balance is needed), but logic has this way of clouding emotion. There is good news though: the emotional state and emotional connections are always stronger. And if you let them, they’ll break that logical state that’s leaving you in a shell, leaving you confused and conflicted, and leaving you scared.
So the next time you’re faced with a decision, do what you must. But if you really want to break out of that shell, reconnect with yourself, stop being scared of being you really are, and live free again, then you must decide on what feels right, even if it doesn’t makes sense.
Let her out. Trust me, hell may hath no fury like her, but ne’er a relief more soothing either.
Hope this helps,
Jose
la cuna
n. the twinge of sadness that there’s no frontier left, that as the last explorer trudged with his armies toward a blank spot on the map, he didn’t suddenly remember his daughter’s upcoming piano recital and turn for home, leaving a new continent unexplored so we could set its mists and mountains aside as a strategic reserve of mystery, if only to answer more of our children’s questions with “Nobody knows! Out there, anything is possible.”
uggghhh

Yes. and sitting in class at 9am on a saturday with my professor bouncing off the walls with energy is NOT helping. I only get like 3-4 hrs of sleep now. I aim to get 8+ hrs of sleep at least once/twice during the week to create more time for fun over the weekend.

Saw this article on Yahoo! yesterday. It’s amazing how the mark-up goes up per brand and they’re all from one company. Such a shame.
I think my cousin used to work as part of a wholesaler for them.
