There’s a heart shaped pretzel
A book next to it
The bookmark is AWP 
Another Bose speaker
6 foot auxiliary cable
My iPhone
Steve Jobs is the fucking man
My lamp
The thoughts running through my head
Oh so smart that sounds
Yeah right
I take myself too seriously
It took awhile to get in the mood
Do you believe that we have run it
Do you believe
Do you believe me
Is trueeeeeooo ooo
Bedrock 
I’m such a fraud
Why am I even trying
Fuck I hate work
Well maybe not
No I don’t hate it
I just want to read 
And I want to write
And have time to study thoroughly
I want to get on Instagram
I thought snapchat was funny
Until the ads came
I really like that adjusters
I wish the words would be more real
I don’t think I quite get it yet 
I have to look at this some different way
Remove myself from my thoughts
Get out of my head
It’s Nightcrawler
Why do I want to be like that
Its really amazing
But he doesn’t really have any friends
No, that was definitely after 
It feels like my left hand is above my right
I want the blog to be honest
I want to be me when I say it
I want it to only be the text
Only my words
Nothing else
I want to get rid of those tabs
Where can I find that button to delete them
I do want it to be 500 words every time for the next month
I want to transition into 1000 words in November
I think I can do that
I’m in college, I just want to write and be free
But I hold myself back by getting this job and shit
And always thinking that
Yeah what is it you always think
What is it
Have you proved to yourself yet that you can get a job
I think I have
So now what
What
Was that it
No obviously not
I kept trying though, I did get better at it
Even in these few 5 minutes
No more like 10
It took awhile for my fingers to loosen up
Oh god how this feels to plunk these letters out on this keyboard
Is this the key
It has to be the key
But the scary question is 
Is do I really want it to be the answer
Because thats all there is to it really
If you want that, then do that 
Yeah but I just get in the way of myself really really badly
And these moments of clarity like now
I always wonder how long they’ll stick around for 
Because that’s what I’m really chasing
Is that feeling that I know anything is possible and that this is real life
And it’s more beautiful and wonderful than I’m actually realizing it to be
The veil comes over my mind and my face and my head
Wow it took so much to get here
Right where my fingers are just at a good, comfortable level
Even if they are pretty cold
But then I almost always crash and burn when I realize that this moment will be gone and at some point I’m
gonna fall back in somewhere and       
But it doesn’t have to be that way
I want this time to be different
I want to come back to the word
See whats it like
Like really know what its like
How many words can I really produce in a day
I want to love my classes so much
But why can’t I just accept that there’s work involved and this really fucking truly is where I want to be
At least for a little while
I need that self confidence
Like huge ginormous big headedness
That’s what it really takes
But I think that’s what really happy kids look like
I think we have to be a little self-centered
But not in extreme or really bad ways like how most of social media is
And that’s me on a soapbox
God how awful that last statement was about social media
Social media is such an overused ugly phrase
So you get the point but
