It starts with magazine and moves to book, and let me tell you, it never gets any easier.
It’s Fine
My FAVORITE meme on the Internet is the dog sitting in the room full of fire and acting neutral about it. Why? Because I think that’s how a lot of us feel.
When I graduated last May, I had four days between coming home and moving to New York for my grad program. These four days were spent unpacking and repacking (not successfully, sorry mom and dad) while trying to do the assignments I left until the last minute. Then, I got to New York City, started and completed my program, and moved to an apartment on the Upper East Side for three months. Finally, I came home. Did I expect to? No. Did I want to? …it’s complicated. Continue reading
An Egg-cellent Easter Brunch
Easter brunch has been a tradition in my family for as long as I can remember, and this year, while we tried to find a brunch spot in the city, we could not find a menu that suited our needs. Paging through both á la carte and buffet options, each one was more disappointing (and shockingly expensive for food that didn’t even sound good) than the last. We had the idea to make brunch at home instead! After searching through spring dishes, Easter classics, and more, we came up with a simple but delicious menu.

Glossybox January 2016
This January’s Glossybox was okay. Five products, but only one that I got really excited for. I thought they would have switched it up a little bit since they’ve been sending so many creams, but it seemed a little bit like more of the same. The products are good, but I think I would have preferred a body scrub or another sheet mask over the hand cream.
Senior Thesis Survival Guide
My Google search bar contained the phrases “How to survive thesis” and “Is it possible to die from stress” far too many times last semester. I tend to put a lot of pressure on myself, and while everything turns out just fine in the end, in the midst of the craziness and stress I go a little wacky, so you can imagine my mental stability while working on my senior thesis last semester.
Cheers to 2015: The Best Year of My Life
Studying abroad, finishing my thesis, and spending an exorbitant amount of time learning about myself and what I want from my friends and family has led to my conclusion that this year was the best ever. So, thank you. Every single person from this year has really and truly impacted me, and I can’t think of a cheesy enough Instagram post or Facebook message to explain it. Continue reading
Christmas Saver: The World’s Best Sugar Cookies
Don’t you hate having to make cut-out sugar cookies? So did I, but I changed my tune right after making this recipe for the first time.
City Days
Sometimes fate shines down on you and you win concert tickets at the end of a really hard week. Luckily for me, that happened to Jack! He won tickets to see the Chainsmokers, and we met in the city for a fun day off together before their insane show that evening.
Glossybox November 2015
Glossybox, once again, came through in my time of need. My skin has been freaking out. I’ve had breakouts everywhere, and I think it’s because all of the hydration has been sucked out by the dry air and fickle weather. This month, Glossybox was all about hydrating.
