what do you hold onto?
to get you through the days, the months, the years?
we only live once, so how do you decide what’s important in your life?
People kill for needless things, can’t enjoy the little pleasures floating by, and complain, complain, complain about the little dramas that beat them down.
It doesn’t make any sense

is it sad that
i don’t like the music of my favorite author’s wife, and that actually bums me out a little? i figured, he’s my favorite author, so her music must be amazing (not that it isn’t, it just doesn’t appeal to me.)
allweareisalone:
I’m afraid that all the beast from my decaying teeth will tell the truth when my heart stops.
That all the ants in my veins will spread across the earth and carry me with them
And I’ll finally realize how meaningless it all was.
How small of a piece I am in all this.

Because he just posted publicly on his Facebook about being tested for HIV and STDs. He also posted a copy of his results (clean bill of health, woo!) and reminded everyone to protect themselves and use condoms. :)

The Difference Between a doer and a Leader
(inspired by a Gentleman Jack ad in GQ)
A doer tries to make their mark. A leader strives to leave one.
A doer accepts a favor. A leader returns it.
A doer gives orders. A leader inspires others to follow an example.
A doer fits the mold. A leader breaks it.
A doer takes just as many steps as are needed, but a leader takes the extra.
Just because you’re given a leadership position...

Fucking Epic
I was at one of the most epic games I’ve ever seen, one of the most intense moments of my life, and we fucking won by a field goal. Against the #4 team in the conference.
Still reeling.

Men Are Hysterical Too!
wtfarthistory:
There is something visceral about the work of Louise Bourgeois. Take today’s image of a headless male torso hung from the ceiling by a wire: the sculpture addresses the question of gender as related to hysteria, traditionally associated with women.
Louise Bourgeois, Arch of Hysteria, 1993, bronze with silver nitrate patina. National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa

Let you who are without sin cast the first stone, and you’d better throw it accurately.

For my “Cara is a lying sack of shit” post of the day, I present to you *drumroll* - Cara pretending to have pneumonia and barely being able to breathe. Again - SHE uploaded this to my Vimeo account. Enjoy. I’m sure she would love to thank the Academy.

After four years of being a student at the University of Southern California, I’ve come to understand that USC definitely isn’t perfect.
However, I can confidently say that this is the most tolerant and diverse institutions of education that I’ve ever been enrolled in, which is why I’m really, truly ashamed that this article was ever printed by the DT.

Try Failing
trojanconfessions:
I’m so scared of failing, I convince myself not to even try.
I fail at almost everything, because I’ll never learn if I never try. But, these days, I’m so paranoid about how people view me, I don’t feel like trying anymore.
Ugly Guilt
trojanconfessions:
I feel guilt with every bite of food I take.
I wish I could see myself the way other people see me.
Instead, I see everything as ugly.
I feel guilt with every bite of food I throw away.
I’m not anorexic and it kills me when people say I am, I just wish I had more drive to change my eating habits.
the world sucks ass
i don’t know why i didn’t notice that until today. but all you can do is keep living until you find the light and hope that you’re able to spend enough time in it.
