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…
I once read that 82% of people meet their future spouse before they even turn 16. I tried doing my research on this one to find out where it came from and everything was unconfirmed. This is basically a made up statistic. Yet, it resonated with me and sticks with me to this day -…

While job searching, I've felt strongly that I've pigeonholed myself somewhere that will be pretty hard to get out of.

I haven't spoken to these people in like a week...I hope I still work for them. They said be in at 9 right? I think so, let me check my email 100 times before I leave. Shoot I'm an hour early... I have no idea what I'm doing. Okay, I kind of know what I'm…
For a very small part of this summer, I thought graduating was the best thing that happened to me. I was very wrong. College, without a doubt, was the best four years of my life. I couldn't have asked for anything more from the school I chose. I left with a degree that I felt…
