Well, I hope everyone has enjoyed at least some part of their Labor Day weekend. I certainly did, and no, I didn't go to any cookouts. Instead, I'm three for three going to bookstores all weekend. But I won't go into that. The end of Labor Day weekend means a few different things. The end … Continue reading One More Year
It's happening everyone! I'm going back! I got my acceptance email the other day saying that I have been accepted to Wayne State University's Online Master of Library Science program. This is something I've been mulling over for the past year and a half and after working in a library for nearly a year now, … Continue reading Back to School?
I know, I know. You think I'm crazy. Heck, I think I'm crazy at times, but it's true. I miss being in school and most things about it. I've been out of school for just over a year now, and it's still something I have to wrap my brain around. Which is partially why I'm … Continue reading I Miss School (Sort of)
Admitting we made a mistake is one of the hardest things we can do. It's right up there with giving a sincere apology. As humans we tend to be proud creatures and we hate admitting we were wrong about something. But the thing is, humility is good for your soul... literally. So I'm taking a … Continue reading 5 Mistakes I Made During My College Years
No more papers, lectures or overly-priced textbooks for this girl because as of Saturday, I am a college graduate! All I can really say is that graduation weekend flew by! Though the graduation ceremony itself seemed to take a long time due to the speeches and having well over 1700 undergrads walk the stage, it … Continue reading Class of 2015… We Did It! {weekend recap}
This. Is. It. My last week of college. Though last week was the final week of actual class lectures, I still have to count this week because I am still going about as a regular week. The only difference is that I'll be taking finals and finishing final projects. I am done with one class entirely … Continue reading The Final Countdown!
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
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
Earlier this semester I was teamed up with two classmates for our first assignment in our video production class and as it turns out, they would be my partners for the rest of the projects we had to do this semester. We all mesh together perfectly and we don't have to fight for a certain … Continue reading Working In a Group
I find it funny how we tend to set standards for certain points in our lives. Sixteen year olds have to get their license right away. When you graduate high school you go straight to college for four years; if not, you have to get a full-time job and move out of your parents' house. … Continue reading No Set Standard
I recently entered the Amazon Student Study Style Photo Contest after seeing their announcement of it on Instagram. The contest description was to enter a photo of how you (or a friend) study and there had to be at least 1 textbook or ebook in the picture. I was intrigued right away and planned on … Continue reading I Entered a Photo Contest
Before I begin with this post, I’d like everyone to know and recognize that I am not racist or prejudiced in any shape or form. I would greatly appreciate that no one will even say that I am. That would be lying ladies and gentlemen. Now with that said, we can move on. There is one problem … Continue reading The REAL American Language Barrier
As a fifth year college student, or super senior, I’ve learned plenty of things, and guess what? They’re not really anything I’ve learned in my classes. Most of what I’ve learned during my time in college has to do with tips that I can use to help my younger friends and cousins (and readers) as … Continue reading 7 Things I’ve Learned From College
