Interns, at least the ones most people see in movies, usually have a bad reputation attached to that title. That, or they don't do anything except get coffee or be a secretary. I was working in the first camp as another leader, and I had one of my campers ask me what I did when … Continue reading What It’s Really Like to be an Intern

What I Miss about High School (…and What I Don’t)
Seeing a lot of my friends post graduation pics and seeing my memories pop up on Facebook of my own graduation last year has helped me see that there are a few things I miss about high school. However, there are a lot of things that I don't miss at all. For some people, high … Continue reading What I Miss about High School (…and What I Don’t)
Advice to the Class of 2017
I know that a lot of high schools are ending this week and that graduation is coming. I want to start by wishing my sincerest congratulations to those who are graduating. Having just graduated high school last year, I remember how exciting it was and how ready I was to be done. That being said, … Continue reading Advice to the Class of 2017
First Week of Interning
Last Monday, I woke up at 7 and got ready for my internship. I had just come home from college on Friday, and I spent the weekend with my parents and one of my best friends in French Lick. So needless to say, I was pretty tired, simply because I did not get a chance … Continue reading First Week of Interning
A (School) Year in Review
It's crazy to think that my first year of college is officially over! It feels like second semester went by so quickly, even if the weeks seemed to drag on. I find it so hard to believe that I only have three years of undergrad left (and a while before I return to school. Eventual … Continue reading A (School) Year in Review

I feel like everyone is at the point where they are just so done with the semester, and I am right there with them. I love Muncie, and I love being at Ball State, but I've been … Continue reading Finals
Why I Started my Blog

Some weeks, I can't wait to write (and usually write it early and schedule it), and other weeks, I haven't fully decided what I'm going to write about … Continue reading Why I Started my Blog
Life Update
I want to do something different today for my post. A lot has happened in my life the past couple of months, and instead of just having a Facebook or Instagram post about it, I figured I would put it in a blog. Well on December 13, I wrote a post titled "Why I am an … Continue reading Life Update
Owning up to Mistakes
This past week, I have been thinking about what I want to write today. I had so many ideas swirling through my head, and even more in a box on my desk that I could not really decide which one I wanted to do first. However, this morning I was definitely sure of which one … Continue reading Owning up to Mistakes
What Feminism Means to Me
On Friday, I went and saw Passengers with four friends. (I know, I know, a lot of my blog posts have started with or dealt with movies in some ways. They provide a real-world example and an easy transition.) There is a scene where Jennifer Lawrence is incredibly irate and beating Chris Pratt. A few … Continue reading What Feminism Means to Me
