I admire people who have known each other for years and years and years and still consider themselves close. Growing together isn’t really an easy thing to do. I’ve learned over the past 6 years of my current relationship, that it’s necessary for a successful relationship. And it’s a great thing! While we all go…
Ah yes, the buckets of life. The family bucket. The friends bucket. The alone time bucket. The relationship bucket. The work bucket. The fun free time bucket. They all need to be filled, and when one empties another one inevitably empties as well. And when one is far too full, another is way too empty.…
Last year I changed my job, got a new job, got engaged. It was a lot of change around me, but not necessarily inside me. Since then, I’ve been through a lot of growth periods that have just been a bit overwhelming to me. Sometimes I just feel like my old self is stuffed inside…
It’s officially summer! Here’s my June in photos.
I'm not really a "let it go" kind of person. You can pretty much ask anyone I've ever dated, they're probably like why the heck does Rosie still reference me in some of her blog posts when we broke up almost 10 years ago?! Things just stick with me, I wish they didn't. I get…

I’ve been writing letters to myself on this blog for a while now. When I was 25, I wrote this letter to my 29 year old self. And here I am again, just days away from turning 29. I love looking back at this because I wasn’t exactly hopeful for turning 29. But I can…
I haven't been able to get myself to the gym more than once a week lately and I always feel guilty about it. But there are times when you want to go to the gym and you're too lazy and then there are times you just don't want to go. And I just don't feel…
This month I turn 29, my last year in my 20s. Insanely enough, I started this blog when I was 21. So I’m creeping up on 8 years writing on this blog. In that time, we’ve had a name change from Hookup Culture to Rosie Culture. I was a recently-dumped broken-hearted sorority girl trying to…
