This summer has been rough off and on. As I’ve mentioned, I’ve stayed pretty busy with jobs and internships, which is perfect because I love to stay occupied. However, it has also been a summer of loss. In June, I had my Great Grandmother’s funeral service. She passed away back in December during my finals, […]
The summer rapidly comes to a close. I finished up my last shift at Culver’s for the summer and have begun the grueling process of packing and planning the semester. My family demands my time as I wrap up last minute internship things and important details for this last semester. But with any start of […]
Currently, there exists a plethora of different laptops and laptop brands. Apple, Dell, Spectre, Lenovo, Google, and Asus are a few of the brands that stores offer. When trying to decide on what to buy, it can be a little overwhelming. The store clerk shows you the array of options and tells you a little […]
June passed by in a blur. Now it is suddenly the middle of July. Where did all the time go? First it went to Culver’s. I work on average forty hours a week, which is nice. I truly love the people I work with, the guest I meet and say HELLOOO to, and speak with. […]

Being home for the summer is always strange. It feels like an untethering from reality. I fall back on nostalgic notions, doing chores around home and trying to spend time with family. In between hanging with family, I work on remote internships, preparing for life post-graduation. But I don’t feel completely like an independent adult […]
College is just around the corner, which means the headache of purchasing a laptop. Stores spout out brands, facts, and prices, but it’s all drowned out by the dribble in your head. What should you even be looking at? Best Buy provides a list of the top picks for laptops. They divide the devices by […]
For next semester, I have taken on another presidential role as the President of Omicron Delta Kappa, the leadership honor society. I was not expecting it, but I am excited for the opportunity to help run and improve the society. We do a lot, and I would love to allow for more chances to get […]
Motivation is key but illusive at the end of the semester. I am not someone who usually lets the end of the semester stress me too much. If you allow the semester to send you into a panic, then it’s going to annihilate you. If you remain calm and set aside moments to allow yourself […]
Because I am graduating in the Fall, I am already having a lot of “lasts.” Last Spring Break, last Easter Break, last Spring Fling social events, and now last Literary Awards. As these happen, I know in the back of my head that this won’t happen again, yet I don’t feel as nostalgic as I […]
