"When you were 11, what did you think you would be doing now?"

Several years ago, I can't pinpoint an exact time, but I I specific day that I haven't gone a day without thinking of since. I was younger, naïve, and on a trip with my family. We'd just got out of security at the airport and gone to the terminal to wait for our flight. I my dad getting up to go to the bathroom or…

"You hate yourself, don't you? That's why you hurt others. Deep down you know you suffer more when you cause someone else pain... than if you just let yourself get hurt."

About 5 or so months ago I finished one my favorite shows of all time, Neon Genesis Evangelion, along with its companion piece, The End of Evangelion. At the time I saw this film as an unratable masterpiece. I knew I loved it, but couldn't place why. Now, after…

"I am the FBI."

It's over. It's been 7 months since I started the show that has forever altered me in ways I can't explain. For better or for worse I'm not the same person I was 7 months ago. Since I hit play on the pilot episode in October of last year, people have entered and exited my life, I've learned so much, felt so much sadness, I almost died. It feels like so long ago. If I spoke…
