The AWOL Hearts






















Let's play hopscotch in malls. Let's drive fast with the top down. Let's turn up the music as loud as it'll go. Let's put a couch on an island in the middle of the freeway and wave at everyone on their way to work. Let's hug strangers in parking lots. Let's hand out secret messages at traffic lights. Let's make lists of all the things that make us smile and tick them off, one at a time. The world will carry on without you and me when we're gone. Let it carry on without us, today.

I'm going to start doing graffiti. I'm a straight-laced white female college student.
Do you ever have that impulse to do things that you know are wrong? Stuff that you're parents would tell you not to do? Stuff that can inspire other people? This seems like a collection of those things to me, and it makes me think that i should give it a shot too.
