the dinosaurs invented baseball, dammit

me: argh. plan my life please

alexa: get me pregnant, let’s move to the east coast and take it from there?

no. that would be bad. no no no. and if it worked that way, it should work that way, and maybe it does. college is a place to reflect on all the things we “will” end up doing, while the actual things that happen to us take their course. all of this planning and career mapping and interest inventoring only separates us further from the point, which is that we need friends and family and community. professional teaching communities just doesn’t cut it for me. give me an ice cream truck and friends over that any day. maybe i don’t mean that, maybe money will mean more to me one day. if music and milk keeps getting more expensive, i will become a lawyer. milk is going to get expensive as hell by the time i graduate (or drop out)

kate says that being a creative writing major is better in the eyes of the people that matter. she also says she is worried that she has ruined my life. maybe. maybe.
