Meet the Taxi driver: another chapter of the incredible Marla/Jack

So, Spring was the time in which I had to present my project to the evaluating board.

Ok, I should just say… this has been hell. I’m juggling friends, school, and relationships, pseudo-moving, displacement, brokeness… and I still am not getting the hang of it. Is this the proper forum to say these things? I don’t know… but it all needed to be said. So, like a good student, ...
