i keep realizing...im still 20. i got my whole life ahead of me. i dont really know what im doing or where im going but there is ONE thing i really wanna do.i wanna get out there and just bum around for a while. i think im gonna get my motorcycle going nice this summer and team up with my friend on his vespa and just take a trip for the whole season. stopping and staying with friends, making new ones, no real goal but just getting out there and having no obligations and having fun.i think it will be fun and im really looking forward to it.anything youre already looking to do, even if its far off? this is the best stuff to look forward to.

    think, but not too hard, about what you want to do.

    you don't want to pick something you might regret on, but you never know what happens in life, just go ahead and treat everything as life experience.

    i suppose the most important thing is, do what makes you happy man.

    but knowing that in the real world, your 20s and 30s is your prime time, once you messed up and wasted this away, it will be 100 times worse for you to catch back on...

  • What kind of bike you ride?

    Word the f*ck up to this statement.

    Planning on *hopefully* getting out to NYC this spring.
    Planning on going to Brasil next summer.
    Planning on getting back into news writing in 2008.
    Planning on graduating in 09.

    But most importantly, planning on not really planning it all out too much.

    "I dunno, it's your future, Jerri. What do you plan to do?"




    "Go to my locker."




    "No, Jerri, your future. Think way into your future. What are you going to do?"




    "...open it."

    well, not a fast one. the '68 Honda CT90 i just got. tops out at about 55-60mph. but thats what i want, something fast enough to keep up with my friends vespa.

    but i cant really think of another thing to call it. its not a moped, a noped, or a scooter....so i just call it a motorcycle. haha
