Summer's been pretty enjoyable per my last post. I'm bummed out that it's rapidly coming to an end and winter will be here before anyone's ready for it ( Read more... )

In an attempt to combat my feelings of anxiety and inadequacy surrounding the Berlin fiasco, I've been trying to keep busy by doing activities close to home.
