Boy Meets Girl.

He lived. She lived. They met. They loved. He gave. She took. She gave. He took. He took. He took. She tired. She cried. She left. He laughed. He cried. She progressed. He broke. She forgave. He rose. He smiled. She smiled. They remembered. they lived. He died. She mourned. He haunted. She screamed. He grinned. She moved. He followed. He haunted. She prayed. He rested. She died. We forgot. Time passed.

it’s a new semester. it’s also 3 am and twiddling around on your phone in bed, at this hour, on a school day, is entirely irrational. What better time for publicly stating a few personal goals?! This little blog is now deemed my “tester stream”. I’ll frequently pin up some writings from journals, assignments, etc; they’ll probably all levitate around the schedule of this semester’s copywriting seminar. But I as spring slowly sprangs, personal deviation will hopefully sprout up. Maybe I’ll just open this handy app, like right now, to text out some shits and giggles. I sure text useless shits and giggles to everyone else all day long. Enjoy or Unfollow!

Hello Tumblr universe, I’ve returned from my two year absence.

The bland color and content of Faceboosh are rotting my brain. An inspiration mainframe is what I really need, and that’s what you do best.

So cheers, let’s do this.

I’ve spent the majority of this day alone; the refreshing time that I’ve been unknowingly in need of all week. It’s finally a warm (for now?) weather here in Austin, and I got plenty of reminders during my windowless drives why I love this city. when you find yourself waking up after one of those nights, you need a chill day like this. you know, the nights where shit storms brew and come with their karma-lightning striking down with hugely ironic fashion into what you planned to be a routine evening. The individual’s interpretation of those nights are interesting as hell to me; the contingency of one event to present itself where everyone least expects it promotes a wide spectrum of reactions and thoughts. as if like some kind of small fire, a word-glance-nod-tear-laugh-tripup-lie-admission can start the forest fire that only a stage 5 hurricane could quench. and everyone’s stuck in it. like bambi, or bambi’s mom/dad(?) that gets killed. some of us are swallowed up in the fire’s lick, and others manage to hang on to their bucket of water. So where’d you stand in the flames last night? Did you burn up like another singing bunny-rabit, or did you chill out with Smokey the Bear and live to see the next bright day of Austin springtime/february-confused weather? I don’t know, or care most likely. But I do know that only you, and me, can prevent wildfires.

While still somewhat hopped up on ADD meds, after homework, I couldn’t sleep. Surprise, surprise.

So I started scrolling through my mental list of friends, family, and former relationships… focusing on the very first memory I have of each, especially first dialog exchanges. I found it odd how we forget multitudes of conversations, trips and even heartbreaking fights but we can remember every detail of a sentence first muttered years ago.

As I study for my final psychology exam I couldn’t help but consider and write about the intense complexity of memory formation. It astonishes me that such small events in time can be crystallized for decades, even lifetimes. What is the reason for this? Why does it occur?

Try looking into your past and think about it. Remember those side comments you heard accidentally as a teenager that impacted you, or the time you felt completely accomplished by a minor compliment or gesture, then ask yourself why. These kinds of memories hold significance and I believe they can retrospectively help us find our true identities as adults.

It can be odd and possibly even painful to revisit, but ultimately they have distilled in me a greater purpose. The idea of a bigger perspective, like a spiritual overcast is something that justifies the random memories to me. They become more than just occurrences, sound vibrations, thoughts caused by chemical reactions in the mind- they are human expressions evoking a timeless affect on any given viewer. We then ask where these expressions are originated to cause such impact, if not in the scientific explanation in research…

Memories may be tossed away initially like meaningless clutter, but they can be become transcending tools. Crashing through freshly formed recollections like a steel hammer, they will make you believe in God.
