Growing up in California, winter to me meant school break and spending way too much time sitting in front of the television while my mom was at work. I spent my years in the stereotypical vision everyone has of California, by the beach, where the weather seems to always be in the sixties and seasons […]
This past weekend was awesome. Sitting around in my underwear eating Magnum ice cream bars for lunch kind of awesome. My boyfriend wanted to go see the new Fast and Furious move and I…did not. So I did what anyone would do, insisted he go see it so I could get a moment for myself. […]
Working at a law firm taught me how fortunate I was to begin my professional career at an organization where every day was casual Friday. Now surrounded by attorneys and clients on a regular basis, the announcement of a casual Friday immediately boosts everyone’s mood. Because we are still conducting business with clients on Fridays […]
The holidays can be stressful enough, but not having anyone to celebrate with can make them all the more anxiety inducing. If you’re a student who is far from home during the holiday season or just someone who no longer lives close to home, celebrating doesn’t have to be limited to the traditions you once […]
When this post idea popped into my mind I immediately filed it under the crazy category. The type that sits in my notes app until I upgrade my phone and completely forget it ever existed. Except this time something in me decided this was a topic that needed mentioning, at least for us single gals […]
I totally get it, you want to catch the highlights before you decide if you want to stick around or not. Kind of how we look up menus to restaurants we’re not sure are our style. Below are my 5 most popular posts from the last year. I hope you find something you love, and […]
There should be a pamphlet that comes along with your diploma as you cross the stage at your college graduation, or at the very least an email sent out notifying you that freedom as you know it is gone. Unless you enjoy sitting at home all day, watching TV, avoiding questions from relatives about what […]
Dear iPhone 4s, Is it weird that I wrote the idea for this post on my new iPhone? The skinnier, shinier, better version of you. Or is the weird part that I feel guilty about it? It’s not that I wanted to go out and find something newer and better, but the time had come. […]
I am in no way a homebody or introverted, I am just very selective of how and with whom I spend my time with, especially after a full workweek. Fridays for most part are a day to blow off steam and stay out late into the night, and while that’s fun once in a while, […]
This summer represents change in my life. It seems as if yearly I go through this giant process that involves some big transition, like relocating or deciding to pursue a masters degree. Last summer I graduated college and had the intention to take a year off, but instead I packed my bags and moved from […]

The last time I accomplished all my New Year’s resolutions was December 2012. In my defense, I think I worked hard enough that year to last me until now. In twenty twelve I somehow managed to get admitted into a university abroad, start my blogging journey and earn enough credits to allow me to participate […]
Whether you like it or not, Valentine’s Day is all about chocolates, greeting cards and the immense pressure to have someone special to spend the day with. But what’s a girl to do when she’s fresh out of a relationship and has temporarily sworn of all men? Except Detective Stabler because he can do no […]
How do I always find myself single on Valentine’s Day? Seriously though. It’s like I’m cursed to only have a boyfriend during the months that aren’t about gifts and grand gestures. Fucking shit. Well here I am once again, single as a dollar bill on the national day of love. Or chocolate, however you choose […]
