I know it's fairly common for girls to be short, however, I seem to always be surrounded by taller girls. Taller girls can find a pair of jeans that actually fits them length-wise and shirts that aren't too long on them. Me? I have to scavenge the petite section looking for a decent-looking pair of jeans … Continue reading Problems of Being Short

First Step Toward My Future
It's less than four months until I graduate college. Less. Than. Four. Months. There's a possibility that a part of my brain is still in denial that come May, I will actually be walking the stage and leaving the school I've been at for the past three years to enter the real world. There's also … Continue reading First Step Toward My Future
I Just Wanted My Mom
'It's real hot in here.' 'It's getting hard to breathe.' 'I think I'm going to be sick.' I ran out of the room thinking I was about to do exactly that, get sick all over the floor of the hallway as I exited the gallery in search for the bathroom or even to get outside for … Continue reading I Just Wanted My Mom
End the Stigma: Let’s Talk About Mental Health
Mental health... it's something that we try to avoid in our conversations. But how can you avoid something if you're living with it? You can't. Sure, you might not talk about it, but the fact of the matter is, talking about it is what we need to do. Jack Harries says it well in his … Continue reading End the Stigma: Let’s Talk About Mental Health

The “Common White Girl” Post
"How do we know you had Starbucks unless you took a picture of it?" And now you know I had Starbucks the other day.
Beautiful & Dangerous
It's your average 33°F morning in Connecticut; the sun is shining and there's the beautiful scenery left over from a previous snowstorm. You're out walking in the brisk air enjoying some peace before having to go to work for the day when you slip. Your hand goes out to protect your face from hitting the … Continue reading Beautiful & Dangerous
Life Without a Computer
What is my life without a computer? I've been without my computer quite a few times. It is very hard for me to function doing everyday things without it. I do all my banking, most of my shopping, schoolwork and work on my computer. I probably would not have been in school for the past … Continue reading Life Without a Computer
The Baby Crib That Fell
Okay, story time once again! Three years ago today a freak accident happened that left me extra cautious of falling objects and of hitting my head. Ladies and gentlemen, I was hit by a falling 50lb. baby crib while working in the stockroom of Kmart, thankfully not on my head. What happened was that I happened … Continue reading The Baby Crib That Fell
Bloglovin’ It Up
Don't judge the title... it's pretty late right now. Anyway, I came across Bloglovin' a few months ago and signed up, but I honestly didn't think I'd end up using it. Well, I do. I found quite a few new blogs that I fell in love with while browsing the site and I know I … Continue reading Bloglovin’ It Up
Worrying About Worry… it’s not just me!
This morning I came across a post entitled "Worrying About Worry" by Caroline of 'Beautiful Life with Cancer' and as a chronic worrywart myself, I had to read it. What really inspired me about this post is that it's not only me who knows that I shouldn't worry about things, yet does anyway. I mean, … Continue reading Worrying About Worry… it’s not just me!
Sisterhood of the World Bloggers Award Nomination!
In the words of the minions I love so much from Despicable Me... Whaaaaat? I'm shocked and also honored to be a nominee for this award. I believe I had to read the comment jestimous left on my blog about five, six... eighteen times before I could even start to believe it. And actually, I'm … Continue reading Sisterhood of the World Bloggers Award Nomination!
Back to the Books
This semester is going to be my weirdest one yet. Not only is my schedule a little bonkers due to my internship, but it's also my last semester of college (unless I decide to go to grad school, but that's doubtful). When that hits my mind, it hits hard. This is my last semester of school. … Continue reading Back to the Books
