This is probably the hardest piece I’ve ever written. I’m getting really personal and really raw here, so if you are in the mood for something a little bit cheeky or a more light-hearted, I would definitely recommend going back to my Indiana Jones-esque vault and skipping this one or waiting a couple of days…

Cue the Staind because it’s been a while (which I actually had to Google because I would have bet money Creed sang this) . First and foremost, I’m sorry, my dear readers. For the past month and a half, I let a lot of things come before my passions. Some good, some bad. I need…

Life consists of picking and choosing your battles. KP always taught me to choose when and what to fight in order to save your strength for the battles that matter. Right now, I’m learning the significance of her words. Sometimes life is unfair and cruel, but without such struggles, we wouldn’t appreciate all of the…

I never thought the day would come, but I have finally rejoined the world of Tinder. I could totally lie and say it’s completely for writing material, and I probably should, but it’s not. It’s simply me wanting to see what’s out there. It’s also me not having enough time for dating and needing to…

I know I know. Long time, no write. I was in a creative rut. Heck, I was in a life rut. But I’ll get more into that with my next blog post. For now, I want to talk about couples. Before I get into the meat and potatoes of this post, I want to set…

I’m embarrassed to use a play off of the Uncle Kracker song I was listening to, but it happened, so let’s roll with it, shall we? Fall has always been a cyclical time in my life. Some variation of the same events happens every single autumn. I usually start falling (pun only slightly intended) for…

For the first time ever, I actually feel a change with my age. Yes, I am well-aware I’m only 23, but I’m also self-aware of the things going on around me. I have friends in relationships that are living together. I have friends who have started calling their jobs their careers. I have realized there…

Yeah, I know it isn’t the wittiest of titles, but I’m also on day five of my seven work day bender, so be kind here. Recently, the “People You May Know” section of Facebook has simultaneously been the most painful and enthralling part of my life. The other night after work, two of the squares…

With my 23 birthday having come and gone, I thought it was only fitting to hear from little baby Baillee on her 13 birthday. As a reminder, all of the names have been changed to pop culture references from my youth, and the points don’t matter. To avoid confusion in this particular entry, my commentary…

Visit three different states: I’ve only been to Oklahoma and California, and I want to change that. I want to get out there and travel the world and get new writing material. Maybe I’ll even get detained at LAX again for bringing my homework on a plane. Who knows? Stop letting others define my worth:…
