The Scooter

49cc

IX.

I felt like I was an Extreme expert in scooter driving at this point in my life. The priority I had, and was very dedicated to was figuring out a way to charge my Ipod while on the bike. I did all the regular maintenance by heart, the drive belt, the fluids, the whole thing.…

An Introduction

This is a live piece of writing, It will not stay the same. I’m starting this blog because right now I don’t have a good place to keep my thoughts. I have so many failed methods: misplaced journals, diaries I didn’t take seriously, Instagram pages I goofed off on. Perhaps its just hard for me…

Prologue: “You have everything?”

To think back to the beginning, It wasn’t really that much planning. I had been on backpacking trips before, many times. I had been on Road trips before. And I had spent several days driving. There was really nothing new about this journey for me, except for doing it all at once. There’s So much…

(content warning: depression, suicide, self medicating) I awoke at the crack of ass. I lie underneath the fiberglass fish for an extra half hour after my eyes were open, wondering what the fuck this thing was all about. There was evidently a body of water nearby, a small flowing stream, and a kiosk telling me…

In the morning I saw a rattlesnake coiled up near one of the semi trucks. It could have been some other kind of snake but I just assumed it was a rattlesnake, they are the only snake that has the balls to sleep under a semi truck. I told myself that is why I slept…
