three months ago, i was in iowa right now. it was the most beautiful night ever.

tomorrow school starts again. i feel really indifferent about that. i haven’t bought any books, and i don’t really plan on buying any of them. i don’t even know if i have enough notebooks for all my classes. i just don’t care. i’m not going to kill myself over trying to get all As this time around because that doesn’t make a difference.

i wish i had felt like this sooner.

there is only one thing i really want in life right now and i have never felt this way about anything or anyone before, never wanted anything so bad that i would just drop everything that’s going on in my life to have that if i needed to.

i want to be back on the road. with him. that is where i belong.

fuck school. who’s up for some parking lot jams in Y lot?
