I'm going to try my best to summon that high school version of me, so that I can take his energy and spread some more love during my last young adult years. If my goofy message of friendship can touch even one person, it would be so worth it.

I bought a drink and walked around taking in the atmosphere. The set up was great. It felt good to walk around and watch all the games being played. One thing I really liked abo...
