Siempre. Pero tengo que aplicar, y no lo puedo medio-culo, porque sé que uno de los jueces y él pensará que soy estúpido o perezoso, si lo hago.
Yo no sé por qué escribo sobre el mundo académico en...

DOOLEY NOTED
I was all set to give a great lecture today, but five minutes into it a dude in a skeleton costume came in with five people dressed in black wearing shades and they broke up my classroom.

Oh, yeah, totally, I can definitely see shooting an unarmed person if they have gold teeth and a couple tattoos. Especially if you get the feeling they may have been suspended from school and post things on the internet using a stupid faux-gangsta Twitter handle. And shit, if you look at them and get the vibe that one of their friends posted about getting weed from them on Facebook once? Game....
THE SOCIAL CONTRACT

TEXTS FROM KYRSTAN
Kyrstan: Is is weird that I think "America" when I hear dramatic French horn music?
Me: Yes, but all you can be is yourself.
Kyrstan: Thank you, After-School Special Hipster Advice Fairy.
