Oh Japanese lady.
If you slipped in your Japanese when we first started talking, I could have attempted to explain everything in your native language. :O

Misadventures in white shorts.
When I woke up today, I decided to be adventurous and wear white shorts—keep in mind I haven’t properly worn any kind of shorts to school in an extremely long time. (By the way, the day I decide to wear slippers out of the house at all will be the day the world reverses its rotation.)

To all the Virgins.

Sayings that stay on my last nerve
YOLO- Motherfucker, did you not already know that you only live once?
Swag- Bitch, just shut the fuck up before I dome sock you.
I’m real- If you were so goddamn real you wouldn’t have to go prancing around every goddamn 5 minutes proclaiming that you’re real.
I keep it 100- No bitch, you most likely don’t.
I’m paid- Is that before or after you pay your bills?
