I'm pretty picky about the places I call home, I also think I approach it a little differently than most people. I can attach the word "home" to a place where I genuinely felt love, felt welcome, and felt comfortable. I've had a lot of homes in my life. And I've had a lot of…
I was challenged by Bill to share some birthday memories! My birthday was on May 31st, so I'll share what I did as I turned 27 as well as some highlights from past birthdays 🙂 My birthday can be a bit weird, sometimes it falls on Memorial Day. And I've never really had an over-the-top…
Today's my birthday! I turned 27 today and man do I feel old. I've written before about I feel perpetually stuck at 22. I don't know why, but I always just feel like I'm in that 22 year old mindset. New to the world of adulting, still young enough to understand the world, but old…

When someone says to me a year like 2012, I think oh that wasn't long ago. It was just a year or two back, right? But in 2012, I was in my freshman year of college. 2012 was 8 years ago which actually is a lot. I can't believe how much time has passed since…
This may be a weird thing to admit, but when I was younger I always had a hard time picturing my future. Like I never thought I'd make it this far. Maybe I'd die young and leave a bittersweet memory, maybe I'd just vanish. But here I am, about to be 27 years old, with…
I don't want to speak for all millennials, but I think we view careers a little differently than the older generations. When I first got out of college, all I knew is that I needed to get a job. I took what I could get but it was really entry-level and I knew I could…
