I’m in college but I’m not writing anymore—seems a little backward. I haven’t opened my journal in the state of Connecticut yet because I think I’m a little too scared to bother thinking all this through.

Today, this d-bag told another guy he was a piece of shit while he lifted his shirt, played with his hairy bellybutton and winked at a group of freshmen girls and said, “Sup ladies.”
