Six parts hopeless romantic, two parts cynical twenty-something, mix until determined, add two parts idealism dissolved in militarized pacifism. Add one part destitute hopeful, one part massage therapist, and one part philosopher. Sprinkle in a dash of writer, declare his major as Political Science/Law and shake well. Serve over hot coals with a side of chaos and garnish with irony.
I finally got out of California, and I'm now back home in New England. I'm loving this. I'm making progress on my degree, on a novel, on a career and on a life in general.
It's been a long road, but I'm finally enjoying the scenery for a change.
