Throughout sixteen years I developed a book for a child or children I do not know. I did not exude a typical adolescence, assuming obedience is still strange for a teenager. Though, my tarnishing fault was a lack of interest to call my parents when they did not know where to find me. I began [...]

Lifting Weights
From my birth until his wedding day, my brother and I shared a bedroom. However, we did not have a door to the room until I was ten or twelve years old. He would lock the door and proceed to beat me up, so our dad removed it from the hinges. To be fair, my [...]
Art To Accounting
Here is the story you have been waiting for. How did I go from art to accounting? Do you remember the coffee shop I mentioned a while ago? There was a customer that wanted me to obtain a degree, she had a connection to Elon University. Well, she was an accountant at a chemical company. [...]
Some Context
There may be some of you asking how I have an art degree, despite being a college dropout. After mentioning both briefly in recent posts, here is the explanation. First, I did not anticipate graduating from a college. My ambition was to be in a touring band by the age of twenty. I held meager [...]

On the other hand, I am reminded of Californians [...]

It’s funny because he’s the banjo player, in trouble for reading a book. For those of you that don’t follow Mumford, here’s the explanation given by Winston. I understand [...]
Failed Art Career
I didn’t grow up wanting to be an artist, but art was always something to do and I haven’t permanently left the pursuit. I’ve mentioned before that both of my parents had abusive upbringings.

Box of Popcorn
Christmas is about Jesus and not presents, but I keep remembering that my opa (grandpa) gave me a 10 pack of popcorn one year for Christmas.
