Sometimes it seems like people have a mold that you are supposed to fit in. Not only fit in but a mold that someone else decided defines as the boundaries you can not cross in your life. If you do all Hell breaks loose.

This is not talking about a parent child things but more to the friend end of the relationship spectrum.

It becomes like a battlefield…. You are told to “Dare to be Yourself” and “Your Inner Self is Beautiful” but then find yourself on a landmine being ripped to pieces because your feelings on as little of one subject remains different than the friend that you had otherwise had a good relationship with.

Sometimes it is like we run into people who nitpicks at our current beliefs like its a friendship breaker when before that we always had gotten along. 

I haven’t been updating here much recently. Here’s why:
 
1. School is time-consuming! I just finished my last exam and its been great. I think during the summer, I might blog more often. As much as I used to? Maybe not, but more than the last couple of weeks. Really though, I haven’t had much time to even journal. School is stressful! 
 
in a Journalism program, therefore its a good idea to start building up my portfolio.am2. I’ve been more into writing journalistic articles- which is the responsible thing to do: I mean, I
 
3. Facebook. Yuck I know. I spend way too much time on that site. It’s gross. Half of the time, I don’t even know what I’m doing and then it turns out a whole chunk of time has gone by. I like looking at pictures. It’s such a mindless activity, its almost like a destressor for school. Going on Facebook doesn’t require much thinking and I think that’s why I like it. Oh and I can’t forget responding to friends’ comments and commenting on posts. Yikes! So much time is consumed!

Anyway. I wanted to share with you (all 3 of my regular readers, yes you! haha) why I love reading blogs. 

We all get em and give em. Question is what DO we spill out once that mouth is opened?

So I decided to make a list of some of the worst compliments I ever received in my life.

Ready, set, laugh:  Continue reading →

I don’t know if you’re there yet since there is no way I can take a pregnancy test, but if you are in fact inside of me, and you’re the one making me crave chicken caesar salads, making me puke everything that is remotely sweet, and causing my feet and hands to swell, and making me walk like I have a backpack attached to my stomach and that your making me want to kill your father sometimes then I want to tell you I love you.

Even if you may or may not exist, even though I’m feeling deja-vu the exact same way your older sister made me feel, if you exist, and I will write this the rest of the way for the hope that I am in fact pregnant, with you.

You have an older sibling, she was only 5 months older than you are. Continue reading →

Dear Uterus,

I get it, okay? 

You really want to have a baby.  I completely understand, seeing that babies are so cute and pinchable, but I’m not ready to have a baby!  In fact, I’m not even going to consider having a baby in the next 10 years.  I’m glad to know that you’re trying to show me some responsibility by making a nice and comfy home for a baby every month, but when I say “no babies,” I actually mean “NO BABIES!!!” 

I’m trying to be nice here, but it’s getting difficult, considering how you decide to completely flip out every month when no potential babies are delivered to your door. 

I’ll be honest- I hate how dramatic you are.  Continue reading →

Weather, accents, slang all differ from coast to coast. Different areas within America have different fads, interests and even styles. According to trendsetters the first place a new style hits is Los Angeles, then New York City and then other major cities and finally trickles down to the suburbs and small towns within America.

But, I was wondering how does fashion really differ from area to area?

New England is known for classic preppy styles like polos, nautical stripes, and argyle.  

Southern California has a much more casual look than New England with cut-off’s, jeans, simple flip flops and over sized sunglasses. Think Laguna Beach.

The english language is a complex thing with nuances that even native speakers find difficult to master. However, some basic language rules ARE NOT that hard, and if you’re in college, you should know how to use them. So this is my list of grammatical errors that make you sound stupid. 

So basically, my social skills are non-existent, which (I think) is why, at 20, I’ve never had a boyfriend, never been on a date, and in fact have never even been asked on a date or to be someone’s gf.

We’ve all heard of the Freshman 15, but I am now implementing the College 20. Yes it is true, many freshman experience gaining a significant amount of weight in their first year of college. This is usually due to the unhealthy dining hall diet, lack of exercise and sports most of us have participated in high school and the new experience of college drinking. It is no wonder that the Freshman 15 was created.

What many people don’t realize or tend to overlook is that once freshman year ends the pounds don’t shed; in fact they tend to add up.

Humans don’t understand forever. They are not like the stars and the moon and the sun, they are not like Spring, Summer, Autumn or Winter,.. they don’t understand eternity and they fear their heads might dissolve should they ever try to understand it, to grasp the true and pure meaning of ‘forever’.

Whether we believe in the after life, heaven or not, here on earth; our lives are small, fragile and so very short. In this world, forever is like an expensive gift card with an expiring date which basically removes the whole point of it being for forever doesn’t it?
