No one should be able to enter a wilderness by mechanical means.
I can get a dance party started pretty much anywhere and anytime.
I took three years off. I differentiated myself from the industry. Found my identity - sort of. . . I haven't graduated yet. I'm not legitimately educated yet, but maybe one day.
