the scratch

sorry for the delay. a lot has happened over the past few weeks, and ive been around the world so to speak. i got word that i would have an interview with the grad school i applied to, so i decided to come back and do it in person. i changed my ticket so and came back early to san francisco. first i went to visit a very good friend whom i havent seen in four years. the last time i saw him i had just dropped him off at highway 101 in washington. he now lives in the north of south france. i went to a party where people harrassed me about hippies, nirvana, and other essential american icons. we rode bikes to the lake, and ate endless baguettes and cheese. it was a small town with no other tourists and it felt like the most authentic experience id had traveling in a while. got to watch some society of the spectacle which thoroughly warped my mind for a few days, then said goodbye to allen after promising to not let four years pass again. then i flew to SFO, my watch broke and on my layover in DC i almost missed my plane because i thought it was five thirty for four hours. then i came to stay with CC near alamo square. my friend leroy suprised me and we spent these last few days together walking around, though his foot is busted so we couldn't walk much. i think the interview went alright, im nervous about it and wish that i knew that i was going to get in, ill write more about the actual interview later, it was hard. now i'm going to the airport to continue jet setting. i'm flying back to prague then going around east europe, slovakia slovenia croatia, then flying out of istanbul in april. everyone write me please i miss and love you all.
