so content right now

I'm reading On the Road. It may very well be my new favorite book.

This past week was simply lovely. I hung out with Jillian, Sarah, and Thomas, all of whom I have not seen in awhile.

I went to Houston and visited my favorite Chloe and had a simply marvelous time. Silly and goofy yet mature and so incredibly sophisticated at the same time. Ate delicious tacos and talked of dribble. And even though I miss it, there is no withdrawl syndrome. There are just happy memories.

I am ready to go back to school. Summer has been just long enough to be great and wonderful but now I am ready for life to start again. I want to hit play. I am super excited for school, both classes and social life and all the fun we're all going to have discovering lovelies in Fort Worth.

I like Houston. Rice as grad school maybe? Or Columbia, or Carnegie Mellon, or Wash U or perhaps somewhere I have never heard of yet.

I've spent the past two weeks evaluating me: my life, my decisions, my reactions to certain things, my thoughts, my feelings, everything. I've pondered and analyzed and recalibrated my mind for the track I want to take and the person I want to become. I think I'm doing pretty well so far.

I read "Howl" by Alan Ginsburg. I think I like part I the best.
Poetry is growing on me. If I go English, I want to introduce some modern, typically unknown/underground poetry to the kids. And possibly some songs too. Because it's all good stuff.
