What Am I Doing With My Life? is a weekly segment where I recap all the things I spent my week reading, watching and listening to. Think of it as a weekly link roundup but better, because it has a much more adorable name… What you might have missed while you were out having a […]
How does one deal with an ex on social media? And I’m not talking about a guy you briefly dated, I’m talking full on relationship, celebrated holidays together, might have even shared a toothbrush with type of relationship. Especially when said ex gave you no closure, explanation, or in reality, respect. When you want to […]
I never Black Friday shop, partly because up until a few years ago I lacked the money to buy anything, but mostly because my mother was a firm believer in the idea that if you cant afford it, you must not need it all that much. So I don’t really Black Friday shop, unless going […]
Hey everyone, I’m going to try to keep this quick and to the point. Two ways no one has ever described the way I tell a story. Over the past few months I have finally transitioned out of the idea that I have to blog for everyone and that my only value is as a […]
You guys, I tried, I really did. Here’s the thing, in the past thirty days I seriously learned what my obstacles are, where I continuously fail myself, and how others manage to get past all these excuses. Okay, it doesn’t help that I’m drinking a Coke as I write this, but in my defense I […]
The summer before my freshmen year of college was very hectic for me. As a Type A personality, I must have read every college dorm packing list available, searching for one that listed every possible item I could have needed once moved into my freshmen year dorm. What I didn’t take into consideration was the […]
As I was wasting time the other day I noticed my friend Noor had tagged me in an Instagram photo, which at the moment made no sense because there was no possible way she had taken a photo with me. (She lives in Pakistan, I’m all the way on the California coast.) Turns out there’s […]
Being a twenty something feels a lot like being a 12 year old at a kid’s party. You’re not young enough to enjoy all the fun but you’re nowhere near old enough to relate to the adults. So you’re stuck in this weird stage where people expect you to be having the time of your […]
After watching CNN’s news coverage for a few hours last night, I suddenly became very anxious about the current conditions in Texas. Living in Washington DC puts residents in this strange position where you’re weirdly detached from the country while at the center of our country’s legislation. When natural disasters like this hit, I think […]
Saving money doesn’t have to be hard or mean you can’t enjoy your life. After quitting my well paying job to finish my masters, I learned that the only way it was going to work was by cutting back on things I didn’t need and saving money on the things I did. If you’re trying […]
My first quarter of college I enrolled in three courses, including Introductory Psychology, World History 1500-1900, and Intro to Microeconomics. Had I based my future or even overall college performance on that first quarter, I would have bet my entire financial aid refund on me dropping out and becoming a full time couch potato. Here’s […]
Even though my birthday is right smack in the middle of summer, fall is my all time favorite season. The weather is finally enjoyable and everything around me looks like it was made to be Instagrammed. As someone who enjoys making specific plans for the weekend, buckets lists are totally my jam. There’s already a […]
Being single on Valentine’s Day is never easy, especially with all of our non-single friends on social media flaunting their relationships in our face. When brainstorming what I wanted to write about during the month of February for Her Campus, I figured why not create something that will distract me and other girls like me […]
I’ve never written a monthly goals post for many reasons. Mainly because I am convinced no one is interested in my desire to get my life in order, but also because I don’t really make monthly goals. I’m much more of a daily to do list kind of gal. With life throwing something new at […]
