My biggest pet peeve is when someone talks about something they are unhappy about in their life that they have the power to change, or make better. This may be in any aspect of life, from where you work, your state of mind to relationships. Chances are, there is something you can do to alleviateContinue reading “Make It Happen”

Life, Post Lent
It has been three days since Easter came and went. My fridge is stocked full of all kinds of Easter treats, but that’s not the only thing the bunny was able to bring. Easter marks the end of Lent, which in turn means that I am now able to buy books once again. Post LentContinue reading “Life, Post Lent”
The Importance of Enjoying Life
Recently, I read the book Home to Italy by Peter Pezzelli. As I was reading it, it got me thinking about something. From what the book said, life seemed completely different then it is in the U.S. Every afternoon, the entire town shuts down for a while to rest and eat lunch. Here in America,Continue reading “The Importance of Enjoying Life”

Ignore The Numbers
When it comes to your body, it seems that everything is measured in numbers – how much you weigh, how many calories you burn or consume, and what your pants size is. By using numbers as a method of comparison, it is easy for those to compare their numbers to others. There is so muchContinue reading “Ignore The Numbers”
Why I Refuse To Be A Victim
Raise your hands if you’ve ever been broken up with or suffered the cruel effects of heartbreak. Okay, now keep them up if you met someone new, but still nursed the effects of a broken heart – and, as a result, caused you to keep them at a safe distance away. Relationships – and lifeContinue reading “Why I Refuse To Be A Victim”
The Little Things
This past weekend had some of the nicest weather that we’ve seen in a while. I’m talking about the sun finally coming out of hibernation, and for the first time, it truly felt like spring. While I was sipping on my Starbucks Pink Drink (for those of you who want to know what exactly theContinue reading “The Little Things”
Lent Update 3
I can’t believe there’s is only ten days left of Lent. I also can’t believe that other then one cheat day that I actually stuck with the whole not buying books thing for 40 days. For a bookworm like me, that is actually quite impressive. Of course, I’ve been tempted. I’ve been getting so many couponsContinue reading “Lent Update 3”
Attracting Positive Vibes
In life, there are some people who just seem to be negative, and weigh you down instead of lifting you up. Those are the people who often spend their time looking at the glass being half full instead of empty, using the social media as a blank canvas for their complaints, and insert negativity intoContinue reading “Attracting Positive Vibes”
The Art of Being Present
Last week, I visited my college campus to pick up my diploma (long story, but my original one was damaged in the mail). And, it got me thinking. Lately, I’ve been thinking about my time at Southern. When I was in college all I could think was oh, how I can’t wait to graduate. I pictured myContinue reading “The Art of Being Present”
