Not Tonight Dear, I Am Having A Panic Attack: Anxiety and Dating
As a person with anxiety, it is safe to say it has had an impact on my relationships. When I was in my previous relationship, it was when my anxiety was in full swing, and panic attacks were a regular occurrence.

A Letter To Those Who Doubted Me
Dear all, Guess what? You didn’t break me. You didn’t cause me to stop trying, to stop shooting for the stars, and to reach my goals. You may have inflicted doubt on me, which caused me to believe that I am incapable of reaching my goals, but despite your attempts, I will never give up.Continue reading “A Letter To Those Who Doubted Me”
A Letter to the Guy Who Wrote the Total Frat Move Listicle
To the author of the Total Frat Move Article, I appreciate reading your list of what makes the perfect college girlfriend.

Defending My State University Education
For four and a half years, I have called Southern Connecticut State University my home. During that time, I blossomed and grew into the woman that I am today.

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.

Relationships – and lifeContinue reading “Why I Refuse To Be A Victim”
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”
Learning to Forgive
In my 22 years on this planet, I’ve had my share of hurt feelings and wrongdoings — broken hearts caused by my few exboyfriends, friends who thought it was okay to talk behind my back, and so on. You know, all of the drama that you would see on a reality show. Lately, I’ve beenContinue reading “Learning to Forgive”
Lent Update 2 — Cheat Day
Sixteen days in, and I cracked. Okay, well cracked is a bit harsh. So, let’s call it a cheat day. With that being said, I had a good reason. I swear! Let me paint the scene for you. Last Friday, after a week of bed rest, drinking a terrible concoction (a.k.a. Pedia Lyte), and terribleContinue reading “Lent Update 2 — Cheat Day”
