    Senior Year

    "I was wickedly curious and adventurous, perhaps to a fault. Could dip in and out of an imaginary land, become invisible, learn lessons by observation and the occasional awkward fumble forward. But I also carried the responsibility of changing the world for the better. To challenge the status quo. To spread kindness, especially to those that see themselves as outsiders. Those that feel they don’t belong. The unnoticed. But also continuing to battle the darkness. The shadows. The varieties of melancholy." This is the thirteenth and final episode of SOMEDAY SOME MORNING SOMETIME, in which the listener learns how the author manages to make it through high school and into the real world.
