Actually, I rode 65 miles overall. The sheer insanity of that idea is still running through my mind, even the second time around.

Oh, this last paragraph…
Blockus then proceeded to read out a “Hipster Manifesto” of demands to Berlin city administration – more iPhone charging stations in U-bahn stations, a Club Mate fountain at Rosenthaler Platz in Mitte and more places where party goers can hang up their jute bags at the infamous Berghain Techno club.
epiphany?
Strange things happen when I look up words.
“Honesty is the best policy.”
That cliche ran through my mind and my most fundamental instinct said that was wrong. Hear me out…
Honesty—obvious what that means (or is it? for the sake of this assume it is), but I digress. The interesting word here is policy. Well, that term is thrown around a lot of government and...

Naturally, I will think about that lyric for hours, and apply in some metaphorical way to my life. Then I looked at the words of the rest of the song. Well then. Oh, there’s one verse in there that… nevermind. It’s time to sleep.
During the Second World War, Winston Churchill’s finance minister said Britain should cut arts funding to support the war effort. Churchill’s response: “Then what are we fighting for?”
I hope this is true. Food for thought.
Everything feels like a giant leap into the unknown. Nothing is guaranteed. I don’t seem to have any expectations. Part of me is so petrified. Part of me is excited. All of me is apprehensive. I promise you that I really just want to make a difference. And I want to be a little different too.

And when the dust settles, where will you be...
In one of those situations where there’s no right thing to say
When the options that lay before you will test your character
When there’s no good choice to make
If you step into the darkness ahead
The light of comfortable surroundings is artificial
The filament will burn out anyway
Don’t look behind you
there’s nothing there to go back to
Sing a song to the audience...

So a 12.9 year old girl wearing crocs and a nickleback crop top walks into a starbucks. She opens up internet explorer to go onto facebook. “Follow me on tumblr :D” she posts. She signs into tumblr. “My autoplay is perfect” she says. She hums the tune to Afro Circus as she reblogs a picture of the sky with the caption “and in that moment I swear we were infinite” in...
