An Open Letter to my Friends
This coming Sunday, August 5, is Friendship Day. I know I use Valentine's Day to talk about relationships, but I've never done the same thing with friendships. So I want to change that. I know I wrote about a month ago about friendships and qualities I look for, but I've spent a lot of time … Continue reading An Open Letter to my Friends
I’ve Seen the Sites
I wrote a post about a month ago telling you all about the sites around Indiana and their importance to Indiana history (Read about those here). Well, I'm writing today to tell you that I've completed my trips! I had a friend go with me to all of them, and she and I had an amazing … Continue reading I’ve Seen the Sites
The Art of Blogging
I wanna do something a little different today for my blog post. Rather than offering advice or telling anecdotes, I want to take you guys "behind the scenes" of my blog. I've had this blog for over a year and a half, and I feel like most of you don't know how my blog comes … Continue reading The Art of Blogging

That instance is life in general. I had a conversation the other day with probably one of my oldest friends. We … Continue reading Competition
My Favorite Sport
Every four years, something glorious happens. A whole month dedicated to nothing but my favorite sport! That's right, it's World Cup season! I've heard a lot of people over the years give "reasons" why they don't like soccer. Some people say it's too slow paced. Some people just don't have a team to root for, … Continue reading My Favorite Sport
Summer Travels
I absolutely love going to new places. It is so much fun to get a change of scenery and do something new. Since I do not have an internship this summer, I have more free time to do things I enjoy. So among other things, I am spending part of my time this summer traveling. … Continue reading Summer Travels
My Library
Anyone that knows me knows that I LOVE to read. I almost always have my nose in some book or another. Since I've been home, I have already read nine books. That's just the beginning! I plan to go through a lot more this summer. So as that is the case, I'm going to dedicate … Continue reading My Library
