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
Finals
It's finals week here on campus (and at most colleges)! You can definitely tell up here on campus. 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
This week will be six months since I first began this blog. That's a little crazy to me. It does not feel like it's been that long. 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

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
Security and Lockdowns
This post is definitely different than anything I've done so far, but it has been on my mind all week and needs to be shared. This post might be "controversial" because not everyone probably agrees with me. I am not wishing to offend anyone, and I apologize if that happens. Last Wednesday, campus got interesting.There … Continue reading Security and Lockdowns
Movie Review: Beauty and the Beast
(I do not believe there are any full-blown spoilers in here, but there are some details that may have been previously unknown.) I was very fortunate to go see Beauty and the Beast opening weekend. My family was actually so excited for it that our tickets were purchased a month in advance! I was so enthused about … Continue reading Movie Review: Beauty and the Beast
