Bullet Points

Just over a month ago I woke up to a man creeping into my apartment. He was at the foot of my bed, a shadow, vertical blinds sliding off of his body as he made his way into my home. I kickbox, I've taken self defense classes, and I consider myself a pretty tough chick.... Continue Reading →

You’re Not Perfect…& Neither Are You

I have always been very competitive.  Growing up with three dudes and a football coach will do that.  Not to mention my mother was also my basketball coach.  I ran a lot of laps.  The point being that I have always associated success and fulfillment through being the best of me I have to give...and winning....

The Ferris Bueller Prophecy

We have all become so very available.  We've gone viral.  Gossip travels faster than ever, social media defines us and is even requested for job applications, and the number of likes a post or picture gets is modern day validation.  While younger generations don't know the difference because it's how they've been raised, I've had...

girl problems

Being a woman is bullshit. I hate to break the news , but we aren't gonna run the world. Not at this rate. It's quite enough that somewhere along the way it was decided that we need to decorate our faces and nails but let's not forget we basically bleed to death twelve times a... Continue Reading →

Why I hate Pearl Jam (& 1st impressions)

Pearl Jam makes me irrationally angry.  The moment I hear Eddie Vedder's whiny I've-been-wearing-flannels-for-3-decades voice, I wanna smash my face into a cement wall...which I would realize all too late was pointless because I would still be able to hear the awful that is his music.  Just make it stop.  I'm a traitor to my generation....

The Disney Princess: Deconstructed

    If you managed to escape your childhood Disney free, you should buy more powerball tickets. Seriously. The odds are, if you're reading this, you had a Disney filled upbringing. And who doesn't love a Disney story? We all did.  The enchantment of rags to riches, the best friends, the exotic locale, love that... Continue Reading →

Roadtrippin’

I discovered the average price of a wedding in 2016 is $30,000.  After I had a brief blackout and envisioned Kelly Kapowski unable to attend the Prom, I thought- do you know how much of Europe I could see with that money?! If I could become a professional traveler, I would. And not in a... Continue Reading →

The House of No

Growing up we are taught to say no to two things: drugs and sex.  And while I understand the emphasis on these topics, what about...oh, I don't know, EVERYTHING else? Now, this isn't to say that you become a disagreeable hermit of a negative nancy.  This is just to open up the idea that the... Continue Reading →

Forever Young

  If someone would have warned me what being a "grown up" truly entailed, I would have taken a detour to NeverNeverLand in hopes of becoming Tink's protégé.  Fact. I, like Kevin Mcallister, could not wait to grow up and live alone. But on graduation day at Indiana University, I didn't get that grown up feeling.... Continue Reading →

In the Land of Blogs:

I've been toiling for months about what to write.  This is my grand entrance into the ballroom of blogs. My first impression in text. Normally I'd take a lengthy shower, put my abandoned hair dryer to use, smoke those eyes, and reluctantly perch myself on some heels.  And while there is nothing wrong with getting...
