Hiatus
Well, where to begin? I have not written here for some time (in fact, my at-least-one-post-a-month format has been broken). This quarter has been extremely busy, hectic, and distracting and I just haven’t felt like journaling. Adjusting back to college life was a bit of a challenge and getting things situated took some time. At [...]
Summer Half Begun

Kindling the Fire
American author Washington Irving once wrote “Christmas! ‘Tis the season for kindling the fire of hospitality in the hall, the genial fire of charity in the heart.” With that in mind, I decided to do a little kindling myself. My friend Carlyle and I made a trip to Camino Real, where we picked up our [...]
