If I had to share three key things about myself, the following would absolutely make the cut: I grew up binge watching "Law & Order: SVU". Like, if I were to fake sick to stay home from school, you could bet the calendar would say Tuesday. Laying around any day there wasn't an all-day marathon on [...]
Italy, Stop 4: Cinque Terre
CAN YOU BELIEVE? Next week marks a full year since Drew and I set out for our two-week trek through Italy—and I still have two stops to talk about. I am the WORST, but please don't use my procrastination to gauge the amount of fun we had. (Even though Rome is still eh in my [...]
This One’s about Hamilton

Opportunity over Change
Here's the thing about big life decisions: They're horrifying. I don't care what it is or when it happens or how prepared you think you are, that stuff is scary. Sure, it can be scary exciting, but any deviation from the norm is bound to get your adrenaline pumping, preparing your body for the unexpected. Does that [...]
