May 2012

This year was likely the best of my life. As the months go on it becomes increasingly harder to select a single photograph or event to encapsulate it all. A lot of delicious things happened in May:

I visited Minneapolis for a week and watched Miles graduate from college.
After grueling preliminary and semi-final bouts, I earned myself a spot on the highly selective LouderArts poetry slam team, setting me up for a summer of working with brilliant and nuanced writers and performers. 
After 9 months of long distance dating, my boyfriend moved across the country to be with me in Brooklyn. 
I threw my book release party which was one of the most special days in my adult life (you can watch videos of most of it here). 

So the photo I chose isn’t of one specific event, but just my face during this month, with a huge smile on it, because that’s what all the goodness of May produced. This crazy mug.
