Life Updates


Hello friends - did you forget about me?

I'm so sorry for being MIA for the past two weeks. As you all probably know, being the busy, wonderful people you are, life can get in the way sometimes, and I've just been slowly piecing everything back together to feel like myself again. I'm trying to get back into the swing of things, and I can finally feel myself pulling out of the deep funk that I wrote about back in March.

Since I came back from Arizona, everything has kind of hit me like a ton of bricks, which is no excuse, but is the main reason I have been scrambling to catch up. It has been a lot of late nights, a lot of laughter, and a LOT of coffee.

So much has happened in the past two weeks, and I am excited to share it all with you - both the good and the bad.

How to Survive Tag-a-long Travel


My family is always traveling. You see, my sister is very active in both dance and soccer, and when the weekend rolls around most of the time they will be packing up their suitcases, gearing up for another dance convention or soccer tournament.

As a result, before I went to college I always found myself being dragged along on these trips. Now, don't get me wrong - I'm not ungrateful for the opportunities I've had to travel, but early morning sports games, sitting in the hot sun, or having to just go along with whatever your sibling/family member wants to do can be draining.

However, even if you do find yourself tagging along on a trip, there are ways to make the most of your little adventure. After all, you are traveling - because of dance & soccer, I've been able to visit Boston multiple times, see the Hollywood sign, eat ice cream under the LINQ in Las Vegas, and even visit Arizona, where I'm currently blogging from today!

Here are a few ways to survive "tag-a-long" travel and still make the most of a trip, even if it isn't meant to be a vacation:

March Favorites


I would be lying to you if I said I wasn't happy March was over - truthfully, it was a pretty rough month for me, and I am so looking forward to what April has to offer. (A trip to Arizona! The Tribeca Film Festival! Almost the end of the school year!)

However, there were a few things in March that I have to say I am a fan of, and in typical blogger tradition, I am here to share them with you today.

Here are my March favorites - I hope you enjoy!
