We just don't give ourselves enough credit. I spend all day on Instagram looking at celebrities and wishing that I could look like them. I look at other bloggers and wish I could have as much of an impact as them. I read about my friend's lives on Twitter and Facebook and wish I was…

Give Independent People Time To Miss You
People that have fully embraced independence just don't function the same as an average person. Independent people fully accept being alone, their personal space, and doing things on their own. They don't expect help from anyone. They don't expect anyone else to come around and encroach on their personal time. It's not like they don't…
Your Ex On Social Media
It's almost the first thing I do after a break up. I unfollow my ex on Twitter and Instagram, I unfriend them on Facebook and Snapchat, get rid of their pictures and their online existence. They call me out on it. They say I'm acting childish, immature, bitter, and petty. But really it's the only…
I Hate Texting
It's no secret that everyone is glued to their phones. Some people love to bash the way we use technology. They get aggravated over cell phone use at dinner and kids always taking selfies. But really, it's no different than when we used to plop ourselves down in front of the tv or spend 45…
Stop Feeling Sorry For Yourself
I'm a notorious complainer. I'm never happy with what I have and I always have something negative to say. So basically, I'm super annoying and I know it. But it's something I'm working on.

Why I’m Happy That You’re Happy
It's hard to imagine that every person that we pass on the street has a complex and intricate life, just like our own. You don't know them - but they have their own web of lies they've spun too. They have people they care about too. They have problems too. And those people you left…
One Year Blogiversary
It's been one year since I posted my first Hookup Culture article on WordPress and I couldn't be happier!! Hookup Culture started as a school project for my New Media Concentration. I basically just wanted to create a space to openly talk about all the things we normally talk about with our friends. I never…
Why You Should Probably Delete Tinder
I don't think there are many reasons behind why we use social media. Sure, you can use it for your branding, to meet people, to read the news - but we mostly use it because we're bored. Tinder is no exception. My generation loves instant gratification. We love getting likes on our pictures and retweets…
The Annoying Single Friend
Disclaimer: I'm the annoying single friend. Not all single people are annoying. But there comes a time in our singleness where it becomes more of an affliction than just the status of our love life. It literally becomes ailing for us to see other couples making out and we spend our nights swiping through Tinder…
