“If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.”
- Marcus Aurelius

Letters From God: End of Year, End of Schmear
Hello world.
I know I haven’t been on top of things. I’m still not. But! It is the end of the semester (only two days left) and I am hoping not to slack ANYMORE! For this piece, I am going to post my personal space project statement/end of year statement accompanied by my short Dia: Beacon trip review. READ MORE »
Letters From God: Slackin’ Around
Everyone claims to be a procrastinator. I am not an exclusion. Nowhere near it. I always ALWAYS get immensely stressed when I notice I’m not constantly working hard on something. I hold extraordinarily high standards for myself. I rarely, if ever, meet them. This usually causes me to spiral into a self loathing pit. Without the help and support of the lovely Noel Rogers, I would not be able to come out of that too quickly. Thank you for all the things you do for me.
I have been particularly anxious lately because classes are coming to an end and today I had to have surgery. I won’t discuss the surgery today. The classes, however, will be discussed. Hooray! You all care so much don’t you! READ MORE »
Letters From God: Piece Of Cake
Nothing is a piece of cake, except a piece of cake.
You may not want to admit it, but everything is difficult. Everything requires a series of actions to occur. READ MORE »
Letters From God: Dear United States Of America
Dear United States of America,
I have to tell you, I’m tired of your shit. I mean, I know I haven’t exactly been around in a while and you’re clearly throwing a fit. But, come on. I’ve obviously moved on. You think I’m proud of humans? Sheesh. Worst idea ever. I definitely learned my lesson. Not that you guys are all bad, but I won’t be making anymore nah mean? READ MORE »
Letters From God: Jonah And The Really Big Smelly Fish
The use of The Holy Bible as a reference is absurd. I can rely on The Diary of Anne Frank more than The Holy Bible. At least her diary is a first person account of someone who had been labeled and ended up being sacrificed. The Holy Bible isn’t even Jesus writing anything down or a scribe documenting his life and the important lessons he wanted to teach. It’s a bunch of stories, lineage, and rules. Why should this compilation of SOME guys’ stories (not even all of them) form the basis of peoples’ beliefs? READ MORE »
Letters From God: I Pretty Much Suck
Hello, once again we find ourselves here at It’s The Crew. I had no idea what I was going to write about this week until about…2 minutes ago? Which, I suppose, doesn’t matter to you because this piece will have been written one way or another and you are reading this whether you like it or not. READ MORE »
Letters From God: Water
Well, here we are again. I can’t say that I’ve missed you. How should I know if I have missed you or not? I don’t even know if anyone is even reading this. Ahhh okay I missed ya 
you caught me. Hey who wants a grilled cheese? I could really go for a grilled cheese right now. I haven’t had one of those in a REALLY long time. Mmmmmm with a nice bowl of romaine lettuce and ranch dressing. Ugh so good. The ranch after taste (vile as it can be at times) gives the grilled cheese bites a garlic bread taste and oh.my.god. heavenly! With a tall glass of cold chocolate milk. Hey Shannon, why is it that you can never stick to that weight loss goal…? Shut up. READ MORE »
Letters From God: Unfolding Time
Well, it appears to be Tuesday again. I wonder when you’re reading this. I suppose with what and how you are retrieving this information is a question too. Maybe you are a 38 year old male in the year 5702 and you are telepathically sifting through the information archives of the internet reading this with your brain. Maybe you are not reading this and you are absorbing it for energy. Maybe you cannot read this language and cannot understand anything I’m trying to tell you. Regardless, you are there.
Letters From God: Dependency
As you all know, I have finished my cardboard project. Well, I had to write an artist’s statement for it. I figured it would be lame and dead because of the guidelines we had been given for it. The second my teacher announced that it didn’t have to follow the guidelines and could essentially be anything we wanted to write about the piece, I was relieved, to say the least. As a side note, I have been cramming my brain with an unnecessary amount of art history knowledge for a test I have tomorrow at 9:30am…so I apologize for the short piece this week. Next week I’m off, so no excuses…hahaha. Without further ado, please welcome DEPENDENCY! READ MORE »
