It feels good to be back on campus. Don't get me wrong: I absolutely loved being home and the three weeks I had back in Indianapolis were excellent. I enjoyed sleeping in and seeing family and friends. However, it is nice to have a routine again. Nevertheless, I will say that on Sunday, I was … Continue reading Back to School

Yes, you read that right. It says revolutions not resolutions. Resolutions, in my opinion, have a negative connotation.

Reading the title, I know it sounds really bad. However, I promise it was not my fault. (I did not break or lose the phones). Let me explain. Last October, it was time for a phone upgrade. My dad took me to the Verizon store and we got me an LG G4. It worked like … Continue reading How I Went through for Four Phones in Two Weeks

Those of you that know me know that I love to read a lot. As a social studies education major, I delight in historical books, fiction or realistic. However, suddenly, things like reading seem less than stellar when I am asked to do it for a class. I lose the desire to read when it … Continue reading Book Review: Devil in the White City

Does anyone else find themselves struggling on Mondays, or is that just me? Whatever the case, my day yesterday was definitely on the struggle bus.
