After nearly a month of procrastination and countless “I’ll do it tomorrow’s,” I finally checked my test score. I got a 510. While I’m grateful to have made some improvement (and overall have a much more balanced score), I did feel *slightly* disappointed in myself, and couldn’t help but to feel as if it was …

Some Life Updates…
So we meet again. Sensing a pattern yet? Once again, I find myself taking a moment to reflect out loud (or at least in writing) on the past few months since I last wrote, where I’m at currently, and where I hope to be/how I hope to grow in these next few months. This might …
On Survival Mode

Election Night
Let’s get political, shall we? I expected today to be stressful, but I didn’t exactly expect *this*. Currently, I’m in my room, struggling to make a dent in the studying I somehow have to accomplish before my exam in 3 days because like many other Americans (and frankly the rest of the world), I’m simply …
On Deadlines
Life is funny. Just when it seems that you have a grip over reality, something turns up and flips everything upside-down. That’s life- it’s funny like that (or at the very least, it thinks it is). Growing up, my aunt had a rule: never say the words, “I’m bored.” In the case anyone slipped up …
