I made the mistake of not giving the cute guy my number and I’ve regretted it ever sense. As I thought about my small mistake, my perception... Read more »

I’ve never been to a Corona choir concert and I hate Taylor Swift. I’ll be honest. Her music reminds me of all the reasons why I support the Dark Side in all those Star Wars films, so I wasn’t exactly thrilled when I saw her song, Today Was A Fairytale, on the song list.

Got to love how quick people are to jump to conclusions. I was recently faced with a situation where this conclusion-jumping led me to think I was going to be knocked out cold with one swift punch.

September 10, 2010

It’s an age old argument; movies vs. books. But what about those books that are made into movies? Which version is better? Recently, in one of my bouts of boredom, I was reading through lists of books that were eventually made into movies. There were many more than I expected, a lot of movies that... Read more »

The cure to insecurities

September 2, 2010

Insecurity is something I have suffered with my entire life. I remember even in elementary school thinking that I wasn’t as pretty as the other girls or that I didn’t have as nice of clothes as my classmates. These feelings of inadequacy only grew as the years passed. I became more awkward and isolated.... Read more »
