As the school year is winding down, I'm finding there's a lot more stress and things to plan. A lot of my college-age friends are preparing for finals, and even my students are beginning to sense the end of the year is coming. For my class personally, we are finishing out content this week. We're … Continue reading Finding Passion in Life

Privacy in the Public Eye
To start off, I need to put in a disclaimer: I don't think I'm bigger than I am, and I love each and every one of my followers very much. I am so blessed and humbled. In the 4.5 years I've had this blog (yes it HAS been that long), I have watched my followers … Continue reading Privacy in the Public Eye
Taking the L
I'll be the first to admit that I'm pretty competitive. I like to win and I like to be the best. However, in games, like in life, that doesn't always happen. I'm human. I mess up. I make mistakes. And many times, the hardest critic of my own actions and slipups is me. I messed … Continue reading Taking the L
Putting it all Back Together
Last week I wrote about how sometimes things fall apart. I joked that this week I would have everything back and would write about it. Well I'm writing about it, but I don't have everything back together. Reality is a little bit more complicated than that. I mention all the time that I'm still working … Continue reading Putting it all Back Together
Things Fall Apart

Sometimes life falls apart. It doesn't always mean you failed. Things just happen. You do what you … Continue reading Things Fall Apart

In the Time of Waiting
I feel like everyone experiences this at least one point in their life. You wait for something, and you're so eager for it that you forget to just be present. I know I'm guilty of this. But I also know that I'm working on it. A pretty popular one that I see is people waiting … Continue reading In the Time of Waiting
The Importance of Bad Days
I don't do this often but I need to start today's post with a rant. But I promise I have a point. In my educational psychology class, we had a group project due at 9 AM Monday morning. However, for this project, we had to do and submit individual work. The group portion was sending … Continue reading The Importance of Bad Days
Introducing Me
The first post of the year is always somewhat difficult. There are so many directions you can take, but I feel the first post of the year sets the tone for how your posts are gonna go. In 2017, I wrote a post about goals for the year rather than "resolutions" because I feel like … Continue reading Introducing Me
