No one wants to get hurt. No one wants to put their heart on the line when there's a possibility of it getting smashed. Unanimously, we can all agree that we do not want our hearts broken. But when it comes to breaking someone else's heart, there is so much less thought put into it. We…
I recently wrote about how I feel like I’m always on the defense and trying to prove myself. Sometimes I do so to such a fault I lose a sense of humility and being grounded. I just get so tired of being doubted or questioned that I no longer believe that I could be wrong…
Social media is a place where we constantly see new relationships forming. Brittany is now in a relationship with Bob on Facebook! Look at their kissing pictures on Instagram! Look at them tweet relationship goals at each other on Twitter! Look at her pin date ideas on Pinterest! I grew up with an obsession with…

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…
I honestly can't stand all of the articles I read that are like "You're in your 20's! Quit your job and open up an ice cream shack in the Bahamas!" or "Don't worry about getting a job - backpack through Europe and find yourself!" Come on, in my early 20s I lived with my parents…

In March 2020 I was 26 years old living in New Hampshire, only had one dog, and a completely different job. Now I’m 28 (almost 29) back in New Jersey with 2 dogs, engaged, and 2 jobs past that job in 2020. I don’t think I’ll stop talking about COVID any time soon. It has…
The longer I work in a corporate field, the more I realize that I define success much differently than some of the people around me. I've always known that I view life a little differently than most people. Growing up, my parents were sticklers for good grades, for me going to college, and for me…
