Renting my own apartment last fall was a big step for me. Although I moved out of my home when I was 18, I spent five years living in dorm rooms, shared apartments and group houses. Going from having multiple roommates to none is a pretty big transition, and while it’s not always the most […]

College internships are absolutely necessary if you want to get a job straight out of college. Instead of taking the year after graduation to gain work experience, you can do so while in school! With so many universities offering internship programs, on campus internships and career fairs regularly, there is no excuse as to why […]

Here’s the thing, I’m a very by the book kind of girl. I use crosswalks, read direction manuals and always make sure to follow the guidelines on every assignment. The same applies to my dating history, with me getting to know each guy slowly, not texting him too quickly and generally playing the game we […]

Adopting a cat is the best decision I made in 2014. Forget the fact I accepted an offer to attend grad school or that I moved across the country, bringing home Max hands down is the moment I am most proud of last year. With that in mind, he can be kind of a jerk […]

It’s currently 8:56pm on a Sunday night. I’m writing this as I lay in bed watching one of the rare episodes of Law and Order SVU that I haven’t seen before. Lately all I do is sit in bed or on the floor, anywhere but the white leather couch I was once so excited to […]

I’d like to say to myself that 2016 started off with a bang, but I can’t. My first day of the new year was spent crying, questioning the decisions that have led me to where I am today, and calling just about everyone in my phonebook for strength. Facebook time hop reminded me that two […]

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% […]

I don’t think it’s a big surprise to anyone that I’m not a football fan. I mean, have you met me? Probably not, okay, bad example. Football and I, actually sports and I, have never really been best of friends. In school I was never invested in who won the basketball game. It was gym, […]

The ability to attend a four year university is an experience unlike any other. For four years you have the freedoms of adulthood without any of the responsibility. Very few college students know the stress of having to work full time, manage bills and be asked the all too common, “so what’s your next step?” […]

If you are anything like me, senior year of college consisted of too many people asking you what your plans were after graduation. Now a full year later, I’ve successfully managed to move across the country and transition from a low paying job at a nonprofit organization to my current position at a global law […]

Ever since I made the goal of not giving up on my dream, which is to create an online community for twenty somethings, I’ve dedicated a lot of time to trying to figure out my plan of action. As someone who can’t so much as clean her apartment without making a list, I like to […]

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 […]
