i think i cry a little bit more than most people, but i used to cry a lot. I used to live in an environment that brought me to tears nearly every day. It wasn’t sad crying, moreso a warming of the heart, but i was embarrassed to be crying all the time there. Once i was crying and i apologized to the man sitting next to me. He had just arrived a few days prior, we didn’t really know each other, but he looked at me and smiled and he said that crying just means you’re melting. This is something i always try to say to criers.

I like to raw dog a flight with no media or accessories. No music book or pen, just tunneling thru air with my demons. I’m not sure where else you can find such a curated experience. I used to feel concerned about the environmental impact of flying but then I decided that the plane would get to where it was going whether or not i was on it. I find traveling necessary for personal enrichment and art making. I find that when I go to a new place I come home a little bit wiser and kinder. I always have gum on the plane and everyone can have some. I love eating the little airplane meals like I’m in kindergarten, I love the pink lights and cold clean air.

I think the joy of candy is akin to the joy of nicotine, or the joy of going viral. While these dopamine hits may not be conducive to a traditional steady and meaningful life I think it is important to know where you are and meet yourself there. My favorite lollipops are See’s vanilla lollipops and the carmel and green apple lollipops. I also like mallow cups, nerd ropes, three musketeers, payday’s, justin’s peanut butter cups, licorice yorkie dogs, peach gummies, hamburger and pizza gummies, and chocolate. When i eat chocolate i feel like a woman.

I always turn to VO5 shampoo or the green Suave bottle. Sometimes you need your head to be fresh and clean and this is what shampoo is for. But I don’t really understand paying large amounts of money to degrease my hair. VO5 is a good way to fly under the radar and it provides really consistent results. Every time I use a shampoo that’s weird or nice I never know what I’m going to look like when I wake up. I specifically enjoy the strawberries and cream flavor of VO5, I like seeing the picture of the strawberry on the bottle and I like the Pepto Bismol color. I’m remembering now too that this is what my dad and grandfather both used to buy for me and I think that’s cute.

i stumbled into a really precious vajrayana practice when i was a teenager. This framework, for me, offers tangible steps towards excellence. I do really well with rules and good teachers. In school I would choose classes based off of the best teacher more than the subject matter. I like to think that behind all my media accolades i am offering a presence of mind that is beneficial to others. More than anything else i value and protect a clear, compassionate mind.

The Swiss brand Curaprox. It’s practical, understated, and elegant. It’s a great gift as well for that person in your life whom you love dearly but may not want to make eye contact with or touch.
