Akron/Family - Samurai
from Sub Verses, 2013 [spotify]
“When I had no eyes, I listened.
When I had no ears, I thought.
And when I had no thought, I waited.
When I had no father, I made care my father.
When I had no mother, I embraced order.
When I had no friends, I made silence my friend.
When I had no enemies, I opposed my body.
When I had no temple, I made my voice my temple.
When I have nothing, death will be my friend.”
I don’t know why these 2 songs weren’t just combined into one.
Akron/Family - When I Was Young
from Sub Verses, 2013 [spotify]
“When I was young, I didn’t know that I was young. And I didn’t know, I didn’t know any better.
I’m sorry, I didn’t know.”
GPOY: Beach bums. Group photo from Saturday of all of us, except for the 3 people who had to leave a day early. Photo cred goes to @kfed.
Duck, NC. The view from our deck, as well as Mr. @iJake looking rather comfortable. I’ll miss that view.
Outer Banks sunrise. What better way to enjoy a late night of drinking alcohol at the beach? By drinking your way through the sunset while fishing off the coast of Duck, NC, of course!
Tuesday of last week, a small group of our beach bums stayed up all night watching stars and BSing around on the beach. Eventually we had the bright idea of staying up through the sunrise to go fishing. We didn’t catch any fish (we did catch 3 skates though), but we did catch the most beautiful sunrise I’ve ever witnessed. From starry night to a burning sun, the scene was breathtaking.
All photos were taken with my Canon S100, which recently replaced my trusty Canon S90 that had accompanied me through many backpacking trips and various adventures. The photos were taken early in the morning on May 15th, 2013.
It’s hard to blame Tumblr for the deal with Yahoo when their attempts at monetization were selling digital stickers and push pins for your posts.

Daft Punk (feat. Panda Bear) - Doin’ It Right
It’s hard to pick a single track off this album to share, because they all build into each other so well. This is a fantastic album. I highly suggest you pick it up when it comes out tomorrow!
No hops here.
Drunk sunrise fishing with Bill. We caught 2 skates and 0 fish. We did get to catch the most beautiful sunrise I’ve ever seen though.
I don’t sleep well in familiar places, and I don’t recall my dreams when I don’t sleep well.
A night spent in my own bed is a dreamless night, spent tossing and turning until I ultimately wake up feeling somewhat less refreshed. Meanwhile, I could sleep on a couch in a random strangers house for 4 hours and wake up feeling energized, as if I had slept on a bed of clouds for 3 days. I can’t explain why this happens to me, but it does. Someone once told me that it’s stress, but I somehow doubt sleeping in a new place on a normal day would instantly relieve stress.
However, I don’t complain. A wonderfully refreshing night of sleep comes with dreams I wake up remembering; dreams I often don’t want to remember. Dreams that are wonderful in their own, but nostalgic and bittersweet when I awake. Dreams that involve someone that I don’t think about in my day to day life anymore.
And these dreams… They are always different, but the words and the actions are always the same.
It’s been over 6 years, and when I sleep well I realize it still hasn’t been long enough.
