Sick. Social. Smiling.
Well, my immune system is still the same as it’s always been and I’m sick. I’ve successfully made 3 consecutive trips to the hospital/doctor over the past 3 days–1) bloodwork, 2) work permit checkup, and 3) sick-ear/nose/throat doctor visit. After all of that, I can confidently say that I’m clear of all STDs, mental disorders, and leprosy; I’m not an alcoholic; I’m getting over my fear of needles; I have a “common cold”; and the nurses most l...

Put your foot in my Nikes…picture you livin’ my life.
So…I’ve been such a slacker, and I’m fully aware of it. I’m kinda sick at the moment, so that sucks.

These are a few of my favourite things…
Once upon a time, I asked my dear friend and roommate Taylor Mobley a profound question…”So, how do you know if you’re bipolar?” She proceeded to tweet about it and laugh hysterically until she realized I was serious…then she just laughed some more. But really, people. I feel like I’m so up and down it’s insane. You know the phrase, “Life is like a rollercoaster,” right? Well…I bring new meaning to that one. It’s like I play emoti...
