kerouac says

i forgot to say that when i was talking to my friend, she suggested that going back to school wasn't the only way to catalyze a large-scale change in my life.

and my response was, yes. i suppose that's true.

pause.

i could become a buddhist. or have a baby.



but i couldn't think of anything else, so apparently that's it! change comes in three flavors! school, codification of the spiritual, or spawn!
