About Me

I sometimes fear that I will forever be defined by my job. Maybe if you take all those pieces away, I will no longer exist.
I am haunted by the things that I can't have and take for granted what I do.
It's amazing how many great people you meet in a lifetime. What saddens me is how quickly so many of them become only memories.

What I'm trying to say is that I miss you and I wish you would stay. Maybe you think of me too.

Fuck everything

This is supposed to be some sort of free expression, right? As if anyone cares what my thoughts are or what the fuck I did today. How self-endulging and egotistical blogs are... I've never claimed t...
