don't fuck this up, america.

reminder to self:

you didn't go to college so you could act like you were still in high school.

you didn't go 500 miles away so you could do the same stupid shit you did in Latrobe for eighteen years.

you didn't deliberately surround yourself with all new people so you could fade into the background and watch everyone else connect, again.

you didn't make a change like this happen because you didn't want to change with it.

so stop fucking sitting around waiting for what you want to come to you, because it never has before and there's no reason it's going to start now. make it happen. put on your Red Sox hat and be somebody else. be somebody better than you were. you didn't leave home for nothing.
