Sometimes when I look in the mirror, I can’t help but see your face looking back at me, yellowed with jaundice, Eyes puffy with lack of sleep. When you died, People worried my baby brother would follow in your footsteps, That your demeanors are the same. But I know it’s...
photo source: Favim.com I haven’t written in a while because I’ve been (a) ridiculously busy, and (b) sick with the Bubonic Plague. But I want to pause for a moment and talk about today’s obsession (been a while since I did that). I freaking love tea. I love it hot,...
I’ve officially been accepted into the Paris study abroad program at the American University of Paris next fall, and all I can think about is furniture. If that made no sense, it’s because it doesn’t make sense. I’ve recently gone through the process of signing onto my friend’s lease, and...
I mentioned before that I was on the search for my January co-op. As I said before, I applied to numerous positions and have since followed-through and heard back from many, as well. I haven’t yet been declined by any companies, but did opt not to interview with some that...

In addition to the deaths of three family members, we also have a verbally and emotionally abusive neighbor that’s been threatening my family. And sometime between the...
Oh, hello there… It’s certainly been a while since I wrote here. I have a confession to make. I’ve been cheating on this blog. What started off as a class assignment has turned into a genuine passion and interest. I’ve been blogging about organic food in Boston on my new(ish)...
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee with my touch, tongue and tummy, The way you stink up the room like bacon, For all the midnight snack sessions we shared. I love thee to the level of crazy The way your strings tickle on...
I’ve hit rock bottom. Somehow in the last week, I’ve managed to upset pretty much every person that matters to me. And the root of all my problems is that I’m working too much. I’ve been averaging a little over 30 hours per week because I’ve been feeling the stress...
