Starting a new week of college is a crazy experience! There is so much to do, see, and learn. People often refer to the first week of classes as "Syllabus Week," because professors often go over the syllabus in the first couple of days of the semester. Most of the time, professors try to ease … Continue reading Surviving the First Week of a New School Year
August 13 is International Left-Hander's Day! I am so proud to be left-handed, along with only about 10% of the world's population. But because there are so few of us in a right-handed world, there are some struggles that we face. You righties do not understand how lucky you are. So I want to highlight … Continue reading 20 Left-Handed Struggles
It still blows my mind that most schools have started the new school year already! Colleges are starting soon as well, and that means I'll be starting my senior year!

I've talked about this post in similar capacities before, but this is currently on my mind, so I am going to talk about it again. I am a planner.

I realized that I had made a few posts about my cruise, but I haven't yet told my favorite story. One of our ports was in Jamaica. We went bobsledding and climbed a waterfall! But I am getting ahead of myself. My parents have been on a number of cruises. My sister and I had … Continue reading The Unexpected Brings the Greatest Stories
June was such a cray month for me. In a three-week period, I slept in my own bed only 4 times! I was off and gone out of state or out of country for most of the month. Because June was so travel-heavy, I didn't really feel like I had time or opportunity to do … Continue reading Getting Back into the Swing of Things
One thing that you may not know about me is that I collect keychains. Pretty much everywhere I go that is something new, I usually have to get a keychain for. When I was visiting colleges, I collected a keychain from every college I officially visited and some others that were "unofficial" visits. When I … Continue reading DIY Keychain Display Tutorial
One of my favorite things to write about is obscure holidays and sharing the history of them. I enjoy doing the research, and compiling it into a story form for you. Friday, June 21st, is National Selfie Day. I love obscure history, so I figured why not tell all of you things that I learned … Continue reading History of the Selfie
I mentioned last week that I had a bunch of stories I wanted to tell from my cruise, and I think this is a great one to tell first! On our cruise, we had three ports that we stopped at (or ports of call, as they're referred to). Our last stop was Cozumel, Mexico. We … Continue reading Why you Should Never Put Inflatables on Water
