the millennial struggle. four things school never taught you.
Being an adult is tough stuff. But…it’s definitely a lot tougher when you realize school didn’t prepare you for half of what adulthood consists of. I mean, we heard about everything (at least on this list) but we weren’t really taught how to handle them. Feel me? Anyway! Here are Four Things School Never TaughtContinue reading “the millennial struggle. four things school never taught you.”
song of the week.
“Do you know what today is….” – Tony! Toni! Tone! LoL terrible reference cause it’s definitely not my anniversary… WELL…actually, it’s kinda my anniversary. My Life Anniversary. Yes, your girl is a whole year older. 24 to be exact. And it wouldn’t be right if we didn’t celebrate with the birthday song. Not the standard.Continue reading “song of the week.”
the millennial struggle. the moment you question if you have your shiz together.
Scroll through any one of your timelines and what do you see? Your friends and their newborn babies. Your friends and their engagement rings or wedding photos. Your friends in their master’s graduation pictures. Your friends traveling the world. And then there’s you…
goodbye 23.
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.”

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.”
song of the week.
“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. Last day at the job. My last weekend in the hometown. Saying goodbye to everything comfortable. “They say that dreams come true andContinue reading “song of the week.”
about senior year.
Ah. Well. Here we go. Let me tell you a little bit about Attractions & Distractions : Senior Year. Or better yet, tell you why it’s not out yet. Writing the final piece of a series is hard. Like super hard. For one, you have the pressure of sending the readers off with fond memoriesContinue reading “about senior year.”
the millennial struggle. being pop-culture savvy while still being socially-conscious.
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.”
