I Still Can't Believe It
After 8 years (6 years of which were spent in school), 2 dorms, 5 apartments, 8 different roommates, 2 kittens, and countless late nights and pitchers of beer and whiskeys and drunken tacos and dance parties with the girls of Via Micheli and laughs and tears - I’m going to be leaving New York.
I just can’t seem to wrap my head around it.
My Aunt Haris took this video of me at Bridal Veil Falls in Oregon yesterday.

I still get sad every time I think about Richard Dreyfuss sitting in that car, telling me about how Chris Chambers died in a knife fight.
