It’s been a minute…
Hey hi hello! As the title states- it’s been a minute! And a wild minute, at that. First of all… people are mentioning things about high school that didn’t actually happen? Like I know a lot of it is a blur for me… but certain things I am sure of.…

Marjorie
One of the songs on Taylor Swift’s new CD is called Marjorie, and it’s about her grandma. I’ve been listening to it a lot lately (it’s one of my favorites from that album), and it’s no coincidence that I have also been thinking about my grandmother a lot lately. I…

Pure Barre First (and Second) Impressions
I’ll be honest, I don’t super love new things. Specifically new places. They make me nervous so I prefer to bring someone with me. I went to my first Pure Barre class by myself, and that could be part of the reason I didn’t like it. I was there by…

I guess we’re buying a house?
Hi there! I know I’ve been a little MIA lately, but between work and house hunting, I’ve been SUPER busy (and stressed tbh). First of all…. houses are expensive. BUT after this whole process, I am 89% sure that everyone could afford a house if it wasn’t for downpayment. I…

Oli’s First Day of Camp!
I’ve written about Oliver’s separation anxiety before. I think it’s safe to say he might also have regular anxiety. Whenever there are people around, it’s like he loses his mind. Whether it’s the running around, jumping on people and refusing to leave them alone, or actually peeing EVERYWHERE for no…

Blogger’s Block?
Why does this seem so hard some days? I’ve found that like most things in life, blogging isn’t what it originally seemed. Sometimes it’s SO EASY to write three new posts in a day, and then it’ll be a week and a half before I have another new idea. Never…

Grad school or bust?
I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about what I want to do, lately. I miss learning, and I want to advance my career. After all, I’m only 22! I’ve thought about MBAs, Psychology Degrees, Masters Programs in Creative Writing and M.Eds. I think I might want to go back…

Oliver’s eventful first week home!
I know my last post was about Oliver, too, but what can I say? He’s my constant companion during this quarantine. You may think I adopted him at a great time. I mean, I got him potty trained and crate trained before all of this started. His coming home definitely…

I adopted a goober with separation anxiety
I don’t know about everyone else, but I’m over this quarantine stuff. I can’t go anywhere, I can’t see people, and I need some time apart from my dog. That’s not to say I don’t know how important it is- it will save lives at the end of this mess.…

Sometimes it really is the journey…
My college experience was a lot like everyone else’s. I went to classes regularly, I made good grades, I tried to be as involved as I could. I probably looked like I had my life together, scribbling everything into my planner. I also changed my major twice. That’s right! In…
