If you are a consistent follower of my blog, I wrote last February a post titled "Ten Years and Four Years" (read it here). I'll give you the sum up of that post. On February 27, 2007, I got braces on for the first time. After so much work, and twice the braces, I finally … Continue reading Life Changes

The Sarah Breedlove Story
February is Black History Month. I am sure you've probably seen things about it. So because of that and because I am going to be a history teacher, today's post will be a lesson in history. This is one of my favorite historical figures, and I hope you learn something! Sarah Breedlove was born on … Continue reading The Sarah Breedlove Story
Find You Someone Who…
I love Valentine's Day. I love being able to celebrate with my friends, and in the past few years, my boyfriend (even though we've never been able to celebrate on the day together). Last year for my blog post, I did some dating tips (you can read them here). This year, I want to do … Continue reading Find You Someone Who…
How to Make Your Roommate Your Best Friend
I'm so excited it's February! I have a lot of great blog posts planned and I'm really excited about them! But I don't want to get ahead of myself. I need to do today's first. So last school year (that makes it over a year ago cause I wrote it in 2016), I wrote a … Continue reading How to Make Your Roommate Your Best Friend
Patience
Can I be real with you for a bit? I'm not a very patient person. I'm the type of person that I like to have everything planned out and I get very frustrated when things change, even if they are things that cannot be helped. So, as part of my goals for 2018, I want … Continue reading Patience
Consistency
It's getting to about that time. You know, when New Year's Resolutions start to lose their appeal. Gym memberships start dropping, life starts getting in the way, and suddenly you're no better off than where you were last year. I get it. It's rough. But this is when it needs to start getting real. Let … Continue reading Consistency
What It’s Like to Take 18 Credits
I get it all the time. I tell people I'm taking 18 credit hours every semester, and I get a look of surprise, fear, or even pity. It's usually followed by "Oh I could never do that!" or "Wow, how do you have any time left?" I've told people before and I'll say it again … Continue reading What It’s Like to Take 18 Credits
Dear 2018
Dear 2018, It is hard to believe that we are already 9 days into this year. When I was in high school, I always looked forward to my graduation year of 2016. It's crazy to me that in 4 and a half months, that will be two years in the past. There will be a … Continue reading Dear 2018
A Review of a Rough Semester
I figured that after having two semesters of college under my belt, I figured I would be prepared for anything else thrown at me. After all, I had a musical theater roommate, and she and her friends got into some pretty crazy antics. Well, I was very wrong, and honestly this was the worst semester … Continue reading A Review of a Rough Semester
Do the Right Thing
I want to start today's post off with a story that happened last week. On Wednesday, I was coming back from dollar tree and volunteering. I parked my car in the lot it's supposed to be in. As I was walking to the bus stop, I happened to look down and see the magnetic stripe … Continue reading Do the Right Thing
