So, there I was, enjoying life and savoring a beautiful evening. It was dark outside, but the light guitar riff of Two Door Cinema Club was whimsically floating about my dorm room, like lyrical birds flittering through a perfect spring sky.
And then, I realized something: ”In a few weeks, I will get time to realize it’s right before my eyes. And I can take it, if it’s what I...
Ah! I get it now!
So, there I was, enjoying life and savoring a beautiful evening. The little crooked lamp outside my window was shining brightly (New LED-licious bulb, apparently), and I had just sit down with a delicious toffee-and-almondy bit of Hershey’s (Delicious, despite the Hershey process. Look it up.) I figured I’d get some writing done. (And so here you are: Reading what I’ve written.)

Love Like a Sunset - (OR: The best...
So, there I was, enjoying life and savoring a beautiful morning. Outside my window, a dreary morning was just getting started. The hustling of buses and random people warned me of an impending day of tests (both explicit and otherwise) and overall productivity (So much to get done, and so little time.) I had clicked around Hype Machine and stumbled upon a new live version of Phoenix’s song...
... Well then.
So, there I was, enjoying life and savoring a beautiful evening. I was listening to some music from the Hype Machine and crusing along the internet. As I was surfing, I noticed that some of my favorite bands are going to be performing in Austin/Houston. When I checked the dates that they were performing, I couldn’t help but get the feeling that they purposefully chose to come through Texas,...
... Hrrrm.
So, there I was, enjoying life and savoring a beautiful evening, a hot cup of Earl Grey tea at hand and a pair of soft, ever-so-wonderful utopia slippers on my feet. I was pondering the deeper things in life (Read: I was browsing Facebook. Such a damnably terrible site, but so addicting.) when, suddenly, I realized that I had neglected to write anything.
I have a friend who consistently blogs,...

Maybe it all starts with a hearty "Hello, world!...
So, there I was, enjoying life and savoring a beautiful evening, my feet precariously perched upon a scale. As customary before making any large airplane voyage, I decided that I would weigh my luggage (Carry on, in this case) by first weighing myself with the bag and then weighing myself without the bag. It seemed mostly uneventful, my carry on was 28 pounds or so (In other words: If I could...

So, there I was, enjoying life and savoring a beautiful day, when suddenly I realized I hadn’t written a blag in a while.
So, instead of entertaining you with something funny that happened to me in the past few days, here’s some lyrics to a song that’s got me thinking. Hopefully you’ll think something profound from it all.
Sorry, I’m a terrible blogger, writer, and...
Or with the polyphonic twittering of birds...
So, there I was, enjoying life and savoring a beautiful day. The slightly-less-humid-because-it-just-rained Texas air rustled its way through my hair like the rustling of autumn-shaded leaves under a majestic Oak tree. The road was open, beckoning me to pedal down it and realize my own bike-tastic potential. The sun was shining at my back, the puddles seemed to dry up just enough to allow safe,...
Not necessarily with a picturesque sunset...
So, there I was, enjoying life and savoring a beautiful evening. An hour before, I had sped through the humid air under the cool embrace of an almost-full moon peeking out from behind scant clouds here and there. It was beautiful, even though I would have preferred to substitute the muggy Texas air for more dry and crisp fare. (Oh well, I suppose life isn’t always fair.)
By this point, my...
Almost in the same way that a good day must...
So, there I was, enjoying life and savoring a beautiful day. The bright Texan sun was shining in the ever-so-vast Texan sky while tendrils and swirling clouds slid across the blue expanse. Some of that ever-harsh light shimmied its way through shuffling green leaves holding on dearly to the limbs of a large tree, making its way to the quaint bench I was sitting down on.
Of course, this was no...

So, there I was, enjoying life and savoring a beautiful day (It was evening by that point.), when suddenly I was informed that I needed to start a blog. Not just any blog, I was told, but rather a blog with some sort of catch - a gimmick, if you will. And, so, what did I do? I quickly blurted out, “I do believe you mean a *blag,*” and rushed home that evening to construct such a...
