Contrary to my social media activity and excessive blog post sharing, I am actually a decently closed off person. I hardly ever cry even though I am a pretty sensitive person (and if you see me start to tear up I’ll talk about how dumb I am for a solid five minutes and then proceedContinue reading “Why I Write (And Share Excessively)”

You have 160 characters to describe yourself in your Twitter bio. As an aspiring branding specialist, I care a lot about how my profile comes across (hence the profile picture change at least 3 times a week). So, how am I going to position myself… Aspiring journalist? Okay, that’s what I am. Aspiring writer? So hipster,Continue reading “Identity: Ballerina”

There are 4,140 universities and colleges in the United States alone. There are 14,473,884 undergraduate students, 2,097,511 graduate students and 1,267,700 professors. Amidst different marketing and recruiting efforts, SAT scores, athletics statistics, extracurricular activities and status- it’s easy for school’s to get lost in the minds of potential students. There are so many factors that play into this decision. There areContinue reading “An Unfaltering Love”

Just a hug. Sometimes, that’s all it takes. Anyone that follows me on any social media platforms or has caught a glimpse of me speed walking with a purpose around town as of late (generally looking like a lost soul torn between wanting to be a corporate professional and wanting to drop everything to backpack through Europe i.e. heels,Continue reading “Just a Hug”

Maybe it’s the weather, maybe it’s the quickly approaching graduation date, or maybe it’s the “grown up” things I’ve been doing lately (i.e. not over-drafting my bank account). Whatever the cause, nostalgia has been the farthest thing from a stranger the past few days. The classic nostalgia symptoms have set in. I have looked atContinue reading “Remembering You”

How many times over the past few years I’ve thought to myself, “I’m just really tired, I physically have to skip class” or “I’m exhausted, the gym is not an option” is, to be blunt, pathetic. Lately I have been in attendance at basically every obligation I have, regardless of if I feel like goingContinue reading “Sleep is a Necessity, Not an Excuse”

We all have role models. We all have people that we look up to, people we want to be like and people we aspire to emulate in our every day lives. I am fortunate to have many role models that I look to for guidance and motivation in my life. It’s a good thing, toContinue reading “Someone Looks Up To You”

Yesterday I laughed so hard that I cried, something I used to do almost daily. As the tears started forming in my eyes and eventually streaming down my face, I felt a sense of nostalgia come over me. I like to think of myself as a laid back person. I enjoy laughing, smiling and tryingContinue reading “Laugh Until You Cry”

Some people think I’m rather emotionless. This is most likely due to the fact that I have an average crying rate of 1 tear-up or solid cry per year (four since I moved to Reno in 2010- close enough), I’m decently laid back and I generally don’t argue or fight with anyone. Lately though I have been gettingContinue reading “Accept the Inevitable”

I want to be single for life. I want to be able to do what I want, when I want. I want to feel no obligation toward anyone. I want to do exactly what pleases me. I want to be independent. I want to make it on my own. I want to be mine andContinue reading “Why I Want To Be Single For Life”
