Hey you, start living.
I need to shut up and just appreciate life as it is. I think I have been ungrateful. It’s the boredom of having so much and living so little. I am a regular consumer. I consume air, food and energy. The air is fresh in my city, the water is clean and the food is tasty but there are always things that get on my nerves and beg to be bitched about. Seriously, I can’t remember what I bitch...

Remembering Elliott Smith
A girl once beat me in arm-wrestling with all our other friends witnessing my humiliating defeat. I was kinda bitter after that, but then I forgave her when I remembered that it was her that introduced me to the music of Elliott Smith, and Smith’s music was the perfect soundtrack for losers to nurse their wound in their own little private head-space.

His parents watched their child react to...
