The first thing to do before training yourself to become a morning person is to figure out why you aren’t a morning person. Are you just really tired when you wake up or just in a terrible mood? Your energy and mood play a big part into how the rest of your day will go, […]
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 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 […]
Does anyone else enter a three day weekend super excited for all the possibilities that an extra day can bring? Then wham! You realize that extra day or not, you rather sit on the couch and use all that time to scroll on your phone and catch up on your shows. Three day weekends come […]

Last month marked a year together for my boyfriend and I. After months of badgering him about wanting to be swept off my feet for our anniversary, the boy pulled through with a pretty awesome anniversary date. And to make things better, a minor hostage situation gave me the entire day off. Don’t worry, nobody […]
Even though it was five years ago I can still remember the rush I felt as I walked through the Target dorm section with an actual need for all that dorm decor. Or so I thought. Listen, I love to shop, almost as much as I love to shop at Target, but don’t let those […]
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 […]
I left for college immediately after I graduated from high school. I packed up all my clothes and piles of dorm decorations, hopped in the truck and drove 9 hours away from everything and everyone I knew. While the decision to go to school far from home wasn’t difficult for me to make, I never […]
I am a die hard Halloween lover, to the point that currently there are two pumpkins a few feet away from my Christmas tree. Also, I’m lazy. While November is a time to mourn over the fact we have to wait a whole year to dress up again, by the time December arrives I’m pumped […]
Although I don’t write much on the topic of friendships, making and maintaining friendships is a topic that is almost always on my mind, agenda, and to do list. Why, you may ask? Well, I left everything and everyone I knew to live, work and study in Washington DC. Meaning that one decision meant I […]
Raise your hand if your last date night was two people sitting on the couch, one watching TV, and the other scrolling on their phone pretending to be interested about what you’re watching. *Raised hand so high it touches the ceiling.* I wouldn’t label myself an introvert, I prefer the term selectively social. Right around […]
Today marks the first day of Lent. I only knowing this information because a friend who I often turn to complain to has decided to once again give up Facebook for 40 days. Right as I’m in the middle of finding a job in Washington DC and getting my butt to the opposite side of […]
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 […]
