Rumor has it that 23 is like the worst age-year ever. (I don’t know if “age-year” is actually a thing but whatever lol) You’re no longer 21…or 22…but still not quite 25; most likely out of college and adapting to the “Real World”. You are probably in your first job that is nothing like whatContinue reading “goodbye 23.”

Its moving week! And I’m soooo excited; ya’ll have no idea (see my southern twang? LOL jk) Song of the week, for me, is to help me relax during this SUPER hectic time. So sit back, relax, and enjoy!
the millennial struggle. social media.
“I’m like do it for the gram ho, do it for the gram ho.”- meek mill. I have a love/hate relationship with social media as a millennial. It’s such a great resource, great networking tool, and obviously a great way to get the word out about things I need masses of people to know about.Continue reading “the millennial struggle. social media.”

“Do you wanna…do you wanna be…happy?” “Do you wanna…do you wanna be…free?” Yes, J.Cole; actually I do. And this week just so happens to be filled with steps in that exact direction.

Scrolling through Facebook one day, I noticed an increasing trend of posts about how things in pop culture were designed to distract you from other things happening in the world. For example, the claim was that Drake and Meek Mill’s beef was designed to get you to ignore what had happened in Texas with SandraContinue reading “the millennial struggle. being pop-culture savvy while still being socially-conscious.”
song of the week.
I love music. 90s R&B is my favorite. In fact, you can pretty much figure out my musical tastes by listening to the Attractions & Distractions : Freshman Year and Junior Year playlist on Spotify.

why summer 2015 was the greatest summer ever.
Anybody who knows me knows I love to travel. Like…I’d drive around in a RV for a year straight if I could. But since real life duty calls, I have to sneak in trips when I can.
