My apologies for the last post, but I’ve had a few technical difficulties this week, i.e. having no electricity. Lovely. No, I wasn’t a victim of Hurricane/Superstorm/Frankenstorm Sandy (but in all seriousness, by heart goes out to those who were). My problems were caused by issues I’d rather not divulge, mostly to avoid writing my … Continue reading »
A love/hate relationship
It’s official. My phone and I are now frenemies. For those who don’t already know, a frenemy is “an enemy disguised as a friend.” In my opinion, my phone, laptop, TV, car, etc. should all be my friends — basically anything that requires a power outlet or a battery.

Here goes nothing…
I must be having deja vu, because it feels like senior year all over again… Just when I felt like I was being pulled away from the path my education set me down, I’ve been throw right back on it. Thus far in my internship, I’ve spent most of my days either on social media … Continue reading »
