I feel like my automatic response when people ask me how I am is, "I'm tired." And man, I really am. It's not a "lack of sleep" tired (although that is definitely a factor); it's more of "I'm worn out because I'm stretched thin" kind of tired. And maybe you agree with me. To show … Continue reading Life is a Balancing Act

Well, this is a special post! It's my birthday tomorrow! As such, I thought it fitting to talk about 19 things I've learned in the 19 years I have been alive (shoutout to the roommate for thinking of this idea): Always be kind- You never know what is happening with people. It's better to be … Continue reading 19 Things Learned in 19 Years

Last Tuesday, something happened. It was one of those things where I was immediately like "This is going to be my blog post for next week!" Then, that thing changed on Thursday, making it a little harder for me to go with my original plan. Nevertheless, I think it's important to share what happened so … Continue reading Be the Better Person

It is so crazy to me that my first week of classes of my sophomore year is already done. I have done so much in this first week alone. For those of you that maybe don't see me everyday, here is my recap of the week: Saturday, August 19: Move-in day. I had three awesome … Continue reading A Week in Review

Today's blog post is a little different than most. I want to cover both a personal and public aspect that relates to this topic. I'll start with the personal. Last Saturday, I moved back up to Muncie to start my second year of college. In fact, I moved into the exact same room. However, I … Continue reading Some Things Change, While Others Stay the Same

I have a problem. I have a tendency to worry about things. Sometimes it is big things, and sometimes it's not. However, either way, I know it can get me in trouble. This is a lesson that I always constantly have to remind myself of. Recently, this lesson manifested itself to me in a big … Continue reading Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff

I know I've talked about my internship a lot this summer, but that's because it has taken up a lot of my life and time this summer. This is the last in-depth post about it though, I promise. Thursday was my last day, and you would expect a last day to be light and easy … Continue reading Summary of the Summer

Last Monday, my boss told me that I only needed to work three days that week because the summer is winding down and we're almost done with camps (and my internship). She let me pick what days I wanted to work. So I asked my sister for advice, and she suggested that Friday be one … Continue reading What Really Matters

Can I get personal for a minute? I don't like posting on social media. I really don't. My life and what I do with it does not belong on the Internet for anyone else to see. There was a time I considered even deleting all my social media, because I hardly even post or look … Continue reading Why I Don’t (really) Post on Social Media
