Hey there. Things you will most likely find on my blog are: MCR related stuff, Paramore related stuff, band related stuff in general, lyrics, depressing stuff, uplifting stuff, inspirational stuff; basically a lot of stuff. (Say stuff one more time! Stuff.) Okay, bye.
dere reeder, i’m proud to present a new monthly podcast i made with my friends, John “Hambone” McGuire and Shaun Simon. Hambone, Shaun, and i have known each other for a really long time. we wrote records together, toured the world together, and eventually sat in front of a few microphones in my basement together. episode one is all about origin stories…how our friendships came to be and why we decided to record our voices. enjoy, lurk, like and subscribe for a monthly dose of casual interactions…
don’t make other people’s decisions for them. apply for the job you don’t think you’ll get. let them decide if you have the skills they’re looking for. tell that person you like them even though you think they’re out of your league. let them decide if they like you. stop trying to predict and control everything. bring what you have to the table. let the rest go.
Confidence is not ‘they will like me’, it is ‘I’ll be fine, or even better off, if they don’t’.
““Listen I don’t know who I am okay? I’ve spent more than half my life running. In pain, afraid, alone. All I’ve ever been is a survivor because what other fucking choice was there? And when you strip all that away, when the pain is gone and I can just be human again, then who the hell am I?””

"Don’t chase people. Be yourself, do your own thing, and love people. The right people - the ones who really belong in your life - will come to you, and stay."
