I’m sitting in a Starbucks. It doesn’t matter that I just worked in one for the eight hours today. I get to be the customer now instead of Barista! I’m finding more and more that I feel most comfortable in a Starbucks. Its a really strange thing. I guess its the familiar music, sounds, smells [...]

Sleeping With One Eye Open (Or Both)
Posted in Uncategorized on 06/14/2010 | 2 Comments »
I worry a lot. About EVERYTHING. You know those people in your life that are completely carefree? Those ridiculously obnoxious ones who sleep perfectly soundly at night? Its because I have their worries too. I’m convinced of it. But its all ridiculous. My worrying has never once solved anything. In fact, I’d say it has [...]

What can I even say? That I haven’t said before. I’ve repeated myself so many times that even I’m starting to notice. (That’s when you know its bad, btw). Recently (as in, like, yesterday) I thought I had completely dissatisified with life. “Meaningless, meaningless” and all that jazz. But, after further consideration (and some alone [...]

Yesterday I ran the Country Music Half-Marathon. Today I stood in a window for 8 hours and handed people coffee. No one cared that I had a medal. No one cared that for the past few months I have gotten up at 6am to run. No one cared that I was exhausted and couldn’t be [...]
Square One…again

I hate feeling like I”m at a crossroads. Especially since I”m well aware of the fact that I am the most indecisive person on the planet. In fact, I’m expecting my crown and sash any day now…if I can just decide on a colour for it. I know that life is not all that complicated. [...]

I love Donald Miller. A lot. Well, I love the way that Mr. Miller writes. I’ll have to sit down to coffee with him before I know if I’m actually in love. Anyway, to the reason I love his writing. I love the way Mr. Miller writes because he always, always, ALWAYS tells a story. [...]

I think I love people too much. But I don’t really know HOW to love them. Confusing? Yes. But, allow me to explain. I always have one person in my life that is my best friend. That person seems to change by a yearly basis. Some lasting longer than others. Meanwhile, I have lots of [...]

So my friend Jenni and I have this idea for a “kids” book. And I’m really excited about it. And I really want it to work out. But I have no idea where to even start. This is the eternal problem. I have lots of good ideas…but don’t know how to commit to them. Here’s [...]

Its amazing how things can change. Upon re-entering my college town I wanted to run away, tail tucked between my legs. I had no choice but to stay and see what happened. Events unfolded one day after the next. With job offers and apartment hunting and new friends (and a few old) flying from all [...]
What You Call Crazy I Call LIfe

I love Oxfam. I really have no choice in the matter. I have tried to want to do other things. When I was an intern at Imagewest (a student-run ad/pr agency) I wanted to fit in and believe that I wanted to work at an agency. I also tried to pretend that I wanted to [...]
