I have finally done it. After four years wishing it was over, I am two months out from graduation. More importantly, however, I am five months away from moving to the most magical place on earth, practically even bunking with Cinderella herself. I am working for Disney World. Perhaps the most exciting part is that…
I mean if you truly think about it, what other group of people would enjoy saving money without having to leave the house/ dorm? Not only does Black Friday limit those who don’t have cars on campus, but more often than not the Cyber Monday deals are better than the in store Black Friday ones. …
Despite the expensive rent, mobs of people, rare silence and utter chaos, I want to move to New York City. Each year on Thanksgiving my mom, sisters, and I sit in front of the television and watch the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade while silently kicking ourselves for not going yet again.

A college senior? Over college? Why isn’t she failing her classes to stay? Switching her major to force her to stay for longer? Could she really want to be kicked off the payroll? Live by herself?

> The only time I’ve willingly spoken in public was during my Dad’s funeral when the thought of his casket in front of me and the life without him ahead was scarier than the 70 or so people sitting in the church and the possibility of mispronouncing Ecclesiastes. However, apparently, that technically wasn’t the…
(Jenny G. & Dad: skip the intro.) It’s that time of the year where the stressed out blog posts are easier to write than the ten page paper due next week. I’m cursing my beginning- of- the- semester- self for allowing me to be too confident in myself about my abilities to make it out…
Spring break of our sophomore year of college and I’ve realized there’s a trend to our get togethers. I figured a few people might be able to relate… Thus, read on. 1. Prom talk Believe me when I say we remember that the DJ sucked and liked the weekend at the beach more than the…
