About the Mirror
It’s not always so clean as to portray the most accurate images of ourselves that we believe it is. Self-awareness is more than a mirage, but less than an oasis. It’s a fickle nourishment—it leads us to fresh meat, boiled in contaminated water. It leads us to ironic misunderstandings that we have with ourselves.
The mirror has dirty spots that blur truth, and in the worst of...
My Little Brother
We’ve got nothing in common. We’ve got more than seven years between us and I don’t know how to act like a responsible older brother. I just know how to sit here and say ‘don’t do what your friends do. Go to a better school than I did. Make more of your youth than I did. Don’t waste your youth on being too young.’ But what’s important is that we...

These are trying times. As much as I strive to prevent the world around me from...
I missed seeing fireworks on the Fourth of July this year, for the first time ever I think. It was a phenomenal weekend but I’m just ever so remorseful for ending the 23-year streak. Next year I’ll see two fireworks shows to make up for it; for now, I’ll just watch this beautiful time lapse a over and over.
Happy holidays.
What I want.
It’s not something special. It’s something you can touch, feel, and lose. I want something that everybody else wants; but they don’t want it the way I want it. I shouldn’t—I shouldn’t be so enraptured in this desire because it isn’t something I’d be able to keep. Still, I can’t wrap my mind around not getting it, and so I pine, I burn, I...

Bye Bye Billy →
The world was left with an emotional stain even Oxy-clean couldn’t remove Sunday as announcements hit the trending topics confirming that legendary pitch man Billy Mays had died in his Florida home. The infomercial vanguard was best known for his work hawking cleaning supplies on late-night TV, and had recently completed some hilariously self-deprecating work for ESPN.
The cause of Mays’ death...
