“There is nothing permanent except change.” — Heraclitus, 6th Century B.C. Greek philosopher This time of the year has always inspired me to look back on my life within the past year. (I really think the New Year ought to be in the fall, not in January because, really, for many of us it does feel like a new year then. Every fall, millions of people go back to school after a few months off. They’ll discover new friends, new experiences, and many things will happen to them that by May or June, during Graduation season when we bid farewell to friends, it does feel like a year has passed by.) → Read more...

As of yesterday, it’s been one month with Amanda. It doesn’t seem like it. If anything, it seems like we’ve been dating for a long time. At any rate, I’m looking forward to many more months to come. → Read more...
Late Saturday afternoon, I walked into Tibstra, went upstairs and went inside Amanda’s dorm. No one was in the living room, so I turned into the hallway that led to the bedrooms, starting to call her name. There she was. She was standing on the opposite side of the hallway, wearing this beautiful iridescent dark purple dress, her hair done up and make-up on. I stood there on the other end of the hall. My heart started beating quicker and my voice stopped in mid-syllable. → Read more...

Last night I was leafing through my high school yearbooks with Amanda when I came to the realization that ten years ago, I completed my freshman year of high school. This sort of epiphany is what “Holy crap!” was invented for. Looking at a picture of myself as a freshman and seeing all the people I knew in high school, it was startling to see how far I’ve come in ten years. It is impressive (and oftentimes embarrassing) to see how clothing, hairstyles, glasses, and tastes have changed, but I think it’s even more striking to see how people have changed, developed, and grown, including yourself. → Read more...
