HEY FRANCE IT'S BEEN REAL
but we outta here. for now.
So I finally went to the top of Arc de Triomphe
And looked over this city that I’ve lived, breathed, and eaten for the past 9 months. In that moment, I decided that I will be back in Paris, maybe a year from now, maybe 10 years from now. But either way, I will live in Paris again for a while.
I feel like I’m leaving a home behind.

Today is going to be a weird day
I know why, but I won’t tell you why.
Let’s just say history has a way of repeating itself.
I’m really starting to like this band called Smith Westerns. The name is also aesthetically pleasing.
EDIT: I just realized my friend Ziyad is in that band. Sweet. They’re also playing Lolla this year.

Realization
I have 4 best friends. 2 of them have been dating for almost 2 years. The other 2 started dating recently. I am officially the 5th wheel.
Haven't posted in a while
Because I’ve been traveling Europe with my brothers. It’s so nice to have a little bit of home with me while I’m traveling.
One thing has been bothering me. I keep blogging and re-blogging pics of girls (and sometimes guys) with the perfect bodies. By “perfect” I of course mean what media idealizes as the perfect body. I’m starting to look at myself physically...
Totally going to Paris to hang out for only 2 hours.
Why? Because I don’t wanna stay in Versailles all day.
Also, my landlord can go suck a dick. “I’ll be there in the afternoon” DOES NOT equal “See you at 8:30.” Fuck you for wasting an entire day.
Yay?
I need to throw my computer out the window
And write. Sit down, and write everything that’s in my head.
Also, it wouldn’t be bad if my landlord actually SHOWED UP so I could leave this apartment and go to Paris.
Reading journal entries from 2 years ago
And what I believe and practice now, I’ve said I was going to do since freshman year of college. Has it taken me this long to finally follow my philosophy? Mistakes were made, and a new way of thinking was born. Yet it was never followed. I kept making the same mistakes over and over again. Lately I’ve been learning better, but it still surprises me that what I thought freshman year is...
What if this is love? Well I barely believe it.
Moving out of my Versailles apartment
After living here for 9 months. I have 3 more full days here. It’s going to be really empty soon.
I'M SUPER HAPPY BUT I CAN'T TELL YOU WHY
Because then it will disappear.

Is it really worth any of our time to be scared?

Yes it’s from Sex and the City. Yes I have watched that show before. But damn, this is a good one.
