When you stop to think about it, college roommates are weird, or at least the situation is. Transitioning from living with family to sharing a very very small space with a complete stranger has been normalized, as if we would expect this sort of thing to be normal for people of all ages. Throughout my […]
So the new year has come and gone, plus it’s Monday (meh), and you find yourself with no resolution to talk about with your coworkers, friends, and in all your Instagram posts for the next week. Sure you’d like 2017 to be a major upgrade from last year (don’t we all?), but figuring out what […]
What I’m about to say is going to sound completely ridiculous but it’s the truth, I swear. I bought one of those Happy Planners over Thanksgiving weekend and I have never been so motivated. It’s basically already the new year in my apartment, or at least that’s the level of motivation I’m feeling. Something about […]
I didn’t want to write this post. Actually, scratch that, I didn’t want to publish this post. Hitting publish meant a bunch of people would know of my intentions for the next sixty days and totally judge me next time I posted a photo of a delicious pizza on Instagram. Okay I’m gonna be 100% […]
So you applied for the job, followed up, got an interview and went home feeling like the job was yours. Awesome! You didn’t stress when you didn’t hear back right away because duh, they probably are interviewing a bunch of other people. They even told you you’d hear back after a week. Then you did […]
I confess… >> I spent all of last week convinced I was either pregnant or dying. Turns out I’ve just been so stressed that mother nature came a week and a half late, because that’s not something that would exponentially stress me out even more. >> I was accepted into a great grad program in […]
Sometime after turning twenty three, I realized I couldn’t spend the rest of my life spending all my money on pizza and Target home decor. In the process of saving for my last semester of grad school and quitting my comfy job at the law firm, I started to put more of an effort in […]
Raise your hand if you enjoy giving gifts more than you enjoy receiving them! *raises hand* Maybe it’s just me but what I love most about Christmas and Valentine’s Day is taking the time to find an item that the most important people in my life will cherish, which is why it’s so annoying when […]
Like most people, I enjoy a good piece of gossip. I’m not above occasionally talking about a stranger’s choice of clothes or a friend’s rash decision, and while I don’t try to make a habit out of it, I’m not perfect. I’m a firm believer in you get what you put out, so no matter […]
Valentine’s Day is a holiday you either love or hate, probably determined by whether you have someone to celebrate with. In my case, I’ve always loved the holiday, single or not. What’s better than a day dedicated to treating someone else, or yourself, to a bunch of candy, compliments, and did I mention candy? It […]
If you know me at all you know I like to celebrate things. Monthaversaries, half birthdays, random holidays that you one else wants to acknowledge. Happy National Polar Bear Day by the way! Totally not lying, don’t believe me? Look here. Since I’m a sucker for celebrating milestones, there was no way I was gonna […]
Unless you’re one part of those unicorn couples that met in high school and managed to not hate each other my senior prom, you’ve probably tried online dating at least once. Whether you made a fake account just to check it out or are a self proclaimed Tinderalla, most of us have wondered if the […]
PS I’m Writing About This is a column that will highlight some of the colorful conversations I have with friends, strangers and inanimate objects in my daily life… I spend a lot of time at Yogurtland. So much time that I have a rewards card which within two months reached Raspberry Tier. Meaning I eat […]
Beginning November 1st I start the process of mourning the passing of my favorite time of the year, consoling myself with the only thing I have, candy I bought at 70% off retail price. Halloween time has always been my favorite season, with the fun not being limited to one day in my life. As […]
