Trip one, back when I had hope Last week…scratch that, the past three weeks have been a complete test of my patience. With group projects, planning events and my brand new laptop deciding to give up on life, I’ve been a bit irritable. On top of my constant state of annoyance, having to resort back […]

I’ve always been a small girl. Not in the endearing way where I barely meet height requirements or have a petite personality. More in the way where belts are a necessity and my thighs don’t touch. I am, and have as long as I can remember have been, a size zero. When checking my email […]

For anyone who doesn’t have “official” plans for this Valentine’s Day, you are most likely going to spend your Friday night at home with snacks and stream a movie. (No judgement here, I’m hosting a game night.) I mean, the holiday does land on Friday the 13th, why test fate and venture outside. I’ve never […]

I just passed the six month mark of quitting my job at the law firm and becoming unemployed in one of the most expensive cities in America. Yeah, I did that. My reason for leaving my great job is simple, I am determined to complete my masters this year. Working full time and going to […]

This is your warning: I am a crazy cat/dog/hamster/whatever fluffy animal is in front of me lady. If it has fur, I have love for it. Which is why when I had the opportunity to adopt a cat almost three years ago, I jumped at the opportunity. I seriously put more thought and effort into […]

I’ve said it a million times and I’ll say it again, breakups are hard. Ever since becoming a therapist I’ve learned all the different ways people deal with the end of a relationship, apparently everyone doesn’t lay on the kitchen floor and eat popcorn from sunrise to sunset. Over the years I’ve written a lot […]

New Year’s Eve is one of those holidays that you either love or hate, typically depending on how old you are and your lifestyle. In my life, New Year’s Eve has never been that grand of an occasion, which is why I put very little emphasis on creating the perfect night or making sure my […]

Full of so many hopes and dreams, until the DC housing situation crushed them… Going to college wasn’t something I thought about at all throughout my childhood and teenage years. As a kid I was always pretty smart, and as I grew into a teenager I was able to keep an interest in most school […]

Typically I write these posts for myself because no matter how much I like to grow my audience, I do sometimes enjoy writing posts that are purely for my own memory keeping. As I debated whether or not I should just save this post as a draft, I decided that a post of this kind might […]

It’s absolutely crazy to me that I was a freshmen in college six years ago, because honestly, I remember packing up the truck and driving to my university like it was yesterday. If you’re anything like me, you like to know what’s going to happen in any given situation. Meaning you want to know how […]

Birthday posts generally call for what you learned that year, and I’m not sure if you noticed, but I didn’t write one for year 23. The reason is simple, I was either a) miserable or b) too busy pulling myself out of that misery to sit down and write a post. I think one day […]

Being in your twenties sometimes feels a lot like the first time you’re left home alone. You’re excited for all this new found independence but at the same time, you have no idea what the hell to do with it all. Sure you can survive by cooking yourself some noodles and sitting yourself in front […]

Today’s the day, Tax Day. If you’re anything like me you’re currently freaking out because you can’t find your W2 or have completely forgotten what password you chose for your Turbotax account. Breathe girl. Me last year waited until the very last day to file, which led to a lot of cursing and frantic calls […]

Professional two tier cake for a 5 yr old’s party? But of course!! Today’s post was schedule to be about studying abroad (or traveling in general) and ways to figure out when the best time to pack up your bags and go was. Instead I’ve spent my entire day in a funk because I woke […]
