[Thoughts] 17 days before I go to S. Korea
Packing At the time of writing, I have begun to pack. It's not a tedious thing at all, and I still have plenty of time with not much to fill it with, so I thought, why not? Actually, in all honesty, I've been sitting around, restless with the thought of packing. I refuse to be… Continue reading [Thoughts] 17 days before I go to S. Korea

[Chatter] At Last, Let’s Talk About Depression.
I think over the last year or two I may have attempted to draft out this post four or five times. As I wrote this very first paragraph for this working draft, it was January of 2018. I knew I wanted to put this up eventually, and I felt like it was approaching the right… Continue reading [Chatter] At Last, Let’s Talk About Depression.
