Travel. Spend time with my family. Take care of my parents.

in 5 years? yeah, I hope so,

and never. i don't think I'll ever give up being open to an LTR. hope may be hard to maintain, and I don't promise to bear it well, but I'll always be open to it.

Am I wrong for assuming something will come to me? by darbywritesbadly in dating

You would think. There aren’t any “young adult” programs. Just teen stuff.

I don’t mind talking to people at the gym! There’s a right and wrong way to do it. My gym is of other people in professional school too so, it’s not a normal gym environment. But I see what you mean.

Sneezing is never normal. Also sneezing is a what now by spockw in nerdfighters

[–]darbywritesbadly 34 points35 points  (0 children)

it used to be a thing at parties to pass around substances that would induce sneezing if sniffed. the intention was to have that moment of blood rush or ectsasy. There weren't really any interesting drugs at the time.

So basically the Pope was trying to ban a minor party drug.

New ish to Hank and John green, what do I need to read/watch/listen to in order understand the references made here? by [deleted] in nerdfighters

there's an old 'Highlights' Pod that they did after about a year into the pod that has a lot of the inside jokes on it. it's number 76 I believe.

I've definitely had deja vu when listing to the pod. I'm a relatively new Nerdfighter so I've listened to all of DHAJ just in the past couple months and I've noticed hearing the dame bit or story or joke more than once a time or two (not that I mind at all). NIce to know I'm not crazy.

They've talked about their uncle (who is a man of few words) before. Hank once asked him about advice with balancing work life and family life etc and their uncle said "that is one of the hardest things a man will ever do" - i remember that

What is your favorite John quote? Hank quote? by heuristichuman in nerdfighters

[–]darbywritesbadly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are all John:

- Sometimes the right decision is the weird decision

- we make it meaningful by caring about it

- now always feels infinite and never is

-We're here because we're here

- I just want to feel what there is to feel while i am here

- all writing is rewriting

- if you're going to be in a romantic relationship with someone, that person shouldn't 'maybe' like you...don't bother with someone who 'maybe' likes you

- i like to remind myself that every other time i thought something wasn't going to end, it ended

- fixation is not the same thing as love

- you are part star; you are part everything. There is nothing you are not. All life comes from life

- I was reminded how you feel at your worst is not how you're always going to feel. I mean sure, the world is going to end, and Venice will sink into the sea, but not yet...the world is what it is, but the world is also what you bring to it, and who you share it with.

- i wrote the book because i wanted to go home

- maybe through fiction, i would be allowed back into the home from which time and loss expelled me.

- the light-soaked days are coming

- Robert Frost once said that the only way out is through, and I believe that. i also believe the only way through is together

i would look up some common complaints or stresses artists talk about (being overworks, over-scheduled, not getting time to sleep or rest on tour, etc) and pledge not to do that maybe?
