Recently, I’ve read this article on the Huffington Post about how marriage is celebrated as being a bigger accomplishment than doing something such as a college graduation or another professional kind of accomplishment. After reading this article, I had given it great thought, as I agreed strongly with the writer’s point of view. Last summer, I metContinue reading “A Response To A Huffington Post Article”

The Kind of Woman I Am
Lately, I’ve been thinking about the type of person that I want to be and grow to be. This goes past thinking about what I want to do with my life past December 16 (the day that I graduate). This is more of who I want to be as a person, what traits I wantContinue reading “The Kind of Woman I Am”
An Open Letter to My Ex Boyfriend
Dear Mon Cheri, This is probably the last time that I’ll ever call you or anyone that for that matter. I am writing you, well writing this for the Internet to see, simply because I thought about you today. It’s a Friday night, and usually Friday nights were our date nights. They were when youContinue reading “An Open Letter to My Ex Boyfriend”
Single By Choice?
Six months ago, I would classify being single as being a curse. I wanted a relationship, a boyfriend, a partner. However, six months and a failed relationship later, I now look at my single status as being a blessing, as now I’m taking the time to be alone and better the relationship with myself. LongContinue reading “Single By Choice?”
I Won’t Apologize
Lately, I’ve been doing some reflecting on what’s right for me (in the sense of relationships), the type of person I wanted to be and what I stood for.

On 3 a.m. Sunday morning, I woke up to my car alarm blaring. As I raced to check out the outside scene through my window, finding nothing, I thought nothing of it and went back to bed. Later on that day (or morning), I got a phone call from my mom, who had left theContinue reading “Counting My Blessings”
Why I Won’t Let My Anxiety Define Me
I remember when I first deal with the symptoms of a panic attack. It was on a Tuesday afternoon in early November, and I was having a stressful day at school where I had to pile on multiple class assignments, in addition to balancing working at a newspaper and a library. After a fight withContinue reading “Why I Won’t Let My Anxiety Define Me”
Ingredients for Happiness?
It seems like everyone out there has a recipe for how to achieve happiness. In fact, there’s literally an entire wing of the bookstore that is devoted entirely on how to make yourself happy, on how to get from blah to wow. However, who has the magic word to get there? The answer? You. TheContinue reading “Ingredients for Happiness?”
Blog Goals
Now seems like a good time to discuss my goals for this blog. It’s been a while since I’ve kept a blog, so I wanted to take the time to discuss my blogging goals. For about a year now, I’ve dealt with the symptoms of anxiety, as well as experienced numerous panic attacks (I’ll shareContinue reading “Blog Goals”
Emotional Relapses?
With any kind of physical ailment, you’re told to basically “take it easy,” by basically resting and limiting your physical abilities until you’re healed. And if you don’t do that, you basically make that wound or injury ten times worse than it was originally. When it comes to an emotional wound, however, things are slightlyContinue reading “Emotional Relapses?”
