9. Don’t play coy or stupid or helpless to get attention. Don’t pretend something is too heavy so that a boy will carry it for you. Don’t play dumb to stroke someone’s ego. Don’t bat your eyelashes in exchange for attention and expect to be taken seriously, ever. You can’t have it both ways. Either you show the world that you have a brain and passions and skills, or you don’t. There are no damsels...

You got me where you want me You’ve had me all along I’m learning the hard way now There’s no easy way out of the storm All I’ve been chasing, God only knows Just where I’ve been Now I realize that I’m a broken man A million little pieces You held right in your hand
You got me where you want me You’ve had me all along…

You quote the Good Book When it’s convenient. But you don’t have the sense, No, you don’t have the sense To tie your tangled tongue.

I’ve been all sorts of “off” lately.
Off color.
Shut off.
Insert other “off” phrases.
I’ve been feeling these twinges. Sometimes in my head. Sometimes in my heart. And I am all too familiar with where they lead.
With March almost over, June isn’t as far away as I’d like it to be. I hate June. It’s never been very good to me. Sometimes...
Between watching Like Crazy for the tenth time and the final episode of Friday Night Lights I’m an emotional wreck.
Texas forever.
UND won tonight.
My school, my favorite sports team of all time, the UND Fighting Sioux Men’s Hockey team, WON the Broadmoor trophy tonight for the third straight year in a row, setting a conference record.
I proudly wore my Sioux hockey shirt today even though I’m down here in Florida. It made me homesick getting the texts from family and friends about the game since I can’t watch it here. All...

It’s really upsetting to see such mean, hateful, and immature comments about what’s going on with Jason from Invisible Children. Regardless of how you feel about any sort of charity, we are people who should be able to show compassion and grace for others. He has a family and a team who depend on him, who are hurting right now. Look into that heart you have and use it.

Who I am:
I’m a junior at Auburn University and studying Music Education. I play any instrument I can get my hands on, but my main instrument is percussion, which I’ve played since I was in third grade. I think music is one of the most powerful things in the world, and it is universal….
This is Robert and I adore him. He helps Katie and I with all things relating to The...

"i miss you in forever ways..."
I have a ring on a chain and on the inside of that ring are the words: i miss you in forever ways… I don’t know what made the words come into my head, but one day they did and they wouldn’t leave. I tried to think of other things, yet all that came to mind were you and them. When the words wouldn’t go, I knew I needed a way to have them out permanently to make space for...

This morning...
I watched the clock go from 1:59 a.m. to 3:00 a.m. and couldn’t help but think that’s how my life is. The only difference is it’s become less like hours and closer to something resembling years.
I went to sleep being 21 and woke up realizing I’m 24. Time keeps slipping through my fingers, and I constantly fear the next time I open my eyes the only difference will be that...
And I suddenly remembered why I had been the way I was for so long.

Please, please before you comment on a nonprofit whether in favor of, or against, know the definition of nonprofit.
Entrepreneur.com gives a great one in layman’s terms:
A business organization that serves some public purpose and therefore enjoys special treatment under the law. Nonprofit corporations, contrary to their name, can make a profit but can’t be designed primarily for...

I apologize...
For the lack of substance, quality, personalization, etc to my blog as of late.
I have been unmotivated, disconnected and exhausted. I was feeling really inspired awhile back, and while I am not without a bit of that still, it isn’t where it used to be.
I feel like I’m teetering on failure/success which has made me doubt myself.
So that’s the short version. Hoping to find my...
