Notes to Self, Spring 2013:

Don't go to the skatepark when you don't care if you get hurt (or if you actually are seeking it out)

Don't listen to Pat the Bunny if you are actually trying to quit smoking cigarettes

Don't go to a baseball game or surround yourself with normal citizens of the United States, unless you want to:
1.  Witness a bunch of homophobia, racism, and jokes about domestic violence
2.   Spend an hour crying in a parking lot while texting people you shouldn't be and beating yourself up over being sad when you are full of privilege

Don't build unsustainable relationships with people you deeply care about and respect

Don't stay in contact with people who don't respect you or act in a loving way towards you, no matter how much you love them or believe they love you.

Do spend more time reading, fighting back, freeing yourself, and just flat out more time outside

Ride your bike everywhere, rollerblade everywhere, surf more

Don't spend the majority of your time and mental space with one human being for months at a time, no matter how awesome they are.

Quit smoking, it's gross and expensive

Quit jobs you hate, they are never worth it

Get out of town whenever possible to get some emotional and physical distance

Let people be, let yourself be
