I’m tutoring English this semester to a friend and I just gave him the feeling that even though his paper is fine, it still may not be good enough. I personally hate that feeling, but it makes me happy that I’m able to entice that it out of someone I’m teaching.
I’m listening to Eric Hutchinson’s new single, Watching You Watch Him, and it’s making me fall in love with him again. I love Eric Hutchinson. I really do. One of the speeches I did in my public speaking class was on him. True story. I stopped listening to him about maybe a year ago or so due to the fact that I moved on from my obsession, but I’m not going to lie: I did get...

Starting a paper at 530 in the morning after a week of almost failed exams—which makes me feel particularly useless—is probably not the best of ideas since I couldn’t spell exaggerated.

It’s a great book! I’m sure she’ll love it. n_n
