also I know I probably sound super passive aggressive and like a cranky old bitch, but I make no apologies for how I feel. whether I say it out loud or write it down.
and no offense, but I don’t remember you having a nursing degree in feelings.

listen, I just wanna listen to Beyonce all day right now and not look at the clusterfuck that is my Twitter feed and ignore the fact that the people I’ve helped in this city are a bunch of dicks and realize I’m putting in HOURS of work into buttloads of classes that these dicks wanted me for but aren’t buying tickets.

reasons I want to punch people in the throat:
stealing my contacts. this bitch works hard for those 2000+ people you see on that list, many of who I even dare to call friends. so plucking them one by one isn’t cool. detach my name from that.

Ernest Hemingway: Have you ever made love to a truly great woman?
Ernest Hemingway: And when you make love to her you feel true and beautiful passion. And you for at least that moment lose your fear of death.
Ernest Hemingway: I believe that love that is true and real creates a respite from death. All cowardice comes from not loving, or not loving well, which is the same thing. And when the man who is brave and true looks death squarely in the face like some rhino hunters I know, or Belmonte, who's truly brave. It is because they love with sufficient passion to push death out of their minds, until the return that it does to all men. And then you must make really good love again. Think about it.

UPDATE: I MADE IT TIL 2:36AM!

There are some nights I hold on to every note I ever wrote. Some nights, I say “fuck it all” and stare at the calendar waiting for catastrophes, imagine when they scare me Into changing whatever it is I am changing into… And you have every right to be scared. Cause there are some nights I hold you close, pushing you to hold me or begging you to lock me up, never let me see the...

I'm not ready to be back
The sudden rush of chaos in my head flooded me as I sat on the train home tonight. Slowly my face of joy from the past few days turned into the permanent fixture that is known as bitch face. My bags are full. I would have gladly hopped on the nearest plane from JFK to not be here not in this apartment not on this street. Not yet. I crave a better balance but don’t know how and I feel forever...
I've come to the conclusion that I need more...

Things I’ve learned while in Bogota:
1. Always carry an umbrella. You never know when it’s going to suddenly downpour.
2. Taxis are cheap and the drivers are really nice about not ripping you off (even when you sit in gridlock for 20 minutes).
3. Don’t take taxis or walk alone at night.
4. Watch out for camera snatchers.
5. Casa Vieja is the place to go for...

Social Media Educator
I like that my job is just basically talking to people.
I like that the bulk of my time is spent emailing people about making awesome shit happen.
I like that people ask me about X and I can point them to Y and Z.
I like that people come to me for advice time and again.
I like that above all else I prefer quality over quantity.
I like that when I come to this office and sit at this table,...

I cannot stress how exciting it is for me to sit in on a travel panel where there are true writers and media folks asking smart questions about social media and travel, my mentor is speaking and sharing key advice, and were skyping with operators in Spain who end everything with “vale, vale” - and its all free.
A wonderful morning kickoff to my weekend vacation.
