One of my final courses in college was, ironically, Introduction to Literary Studies. It’s actually been a course that’s given me much more than I’d expected; by procrastinating, I wound up taking a course for reflection at the very end of my undergraduate career. On our first day, we were tasked with reading Mark Edmunson’s […]
It’s great to hit the ground running. But, honestly, the past month has been all running non-stop 100% of the time. If you sneak a peek at that agenda, you’ll know just how much I’ve been running. And I needed a break. With two papers to write, applications to submit, a full-time job, an organization of 1,400 […]
It’s a little over 365 days around the sun because I’m late, as always, but let us wish [Read:Twenty-Something] a very happy birthday! I started this blog back in Cambridge, wishing something new would walk right into my life this year and realizing that I had to make it happen. It took the direction of […]
[read: currently in Boston, previously in Sarasota, that’s the clear answer] Here’s the longer one – moving back and forth so much in the past month had me taking a break and reconsidering a bunch. Like a lot. Never fear, though, I’m here to catch you up on the happenings of the past month! Leg […]
Meet long-time best friends (it’s about time, sorry there’s definitely inside jokes in here and I’m in all these photos, but these are the only people who read this blog so): Alexis ‘Homie’: current FSU student, is available for extended periods of time or bust, could just as easily end up on SNL as could succeed […]
The Comet of our family is a bird. Her name is Coco. She loves my dad and hates me with the passion of a thousand suns. It’s funny how life works out when you’re the one who supposedly she loved and brought her home but the tables turned and now it’s a story of betrayal, […]
I’ve been watching Full House since I was in the womb. No, really. In the year of 1994, my mom was pregnant and a strict follower of the show. Pretty certain my theme song at birth began with, “Whatever happened to predictability…” I know, that was predictable, to be fair. Both my parents have instilled this love […]
I love the Backstreet Boys. Who doesn’t love the Backstreet Boys? I mean, one time I was driving with my dad and the radio was playing 90s hits mixed with rap songs (Florida radio stations). It’s a normal day, the sun is shining, we’re going to Costco, when suddenly I hear my dad singing along. “Quit […]
I have not gone to the movies in at least 2 months. Which is revolutionary, really, for an AMC Stubs Card Member. So when Phoebe needed to go see Inside Out for her class, I jumped at the chance. Sidenote: when going to the movies to see a Disney film, though, one must be conscious of […]
Meet squad in Cambridge, UK: Dominique ‘The Klepto’: current Harvard student, enjoys cottage cheese and nothing else, likes hitting up multiple museums in one day (History major), calls herself the ‘spider wrangler,’ once fell asleep wearing khakhis for warmth as these buildings don’t have much insulation (they’re actually older than the United States of America, […]
