Attendance at "Parties"
This post is about a borrowed fish-eye lens, vomit, student life and why it is important to jump away from those who are about to puke.
I don’t go to a lot of parties. (In my mind, parties have beer pong tables.) In which case, I can count the number I’ve been to on one hand. (Two fingers, actually.)
Formal events scare me a little. (Even though I know the order to use the...

Fear is a cannibal that feeds upon itself. It lives in every dark shadow—waits around every corner. It can be in two places at once…on the path ahead, yet somehow always behind you.
Fear hides in every decision, questioning your every move.
And it’s your fault.
You are the one who gives it life. You are the parent of your own fear. Every instinct tells us we can do nothing in the face of...

If I don’t respond to you in the next few months, I apologize. It’s nothing personal, I just need to ignore you right now.

Talk to Strangers
Great idea by @tedlee. This ‘good risk’ is my recommendation to you.
