So there’s this guy. You know him. I know him. But neither one of us has met him (stay with me). A Harvard classmate of his, said that he had an “amazing array of interests.” Outside of completing all of his homework, he was still able to carve out some time for boxing, wrestling, bodybuilding, dance, and poetry. He even published…

When I was a kid, my mom use to ask what I wanted to be when I grew up, and I always answered, “I’m going to play in the NBA.” She then, concerned about my lack…

I was recently chatting with a friend of mine about how much I’ve been reading books over the past five years. It’s weird because English and Literature were always my worst subjects in school. I once had an English teacher tell me that I was likely to end up in jail. Why? Sure, I didn’t dig The Great Gatsby, I…

Walk down the stairs, towards the basement apartments, and into the front door of our home on Lincoln Street, and upon entering you’ll be sure to find a variety of notebooks littering our family room. And they’re all mine. I have old school black and white journals, neon-colored sticky notes, 5-Star Spirals, both white and yellow-papered legal pads, a black…
