Spring Cleaning & Nightly Wisdom

Well it's been a while, but I'm back! Now, I know it's a bit too early to be thinking about spring but yesterday was so warm and gorgeous outside it might as well have been springtime. So I spent the last few days doing a little mental spring cleaning. Unfortunately I didn't get to do any actual cleaning so... I still have that to do.

Flashback to 2012

I'm back at school! I missed everyone over break and it was so nice to catch up this past week. I'm settling into all my classes and hopefully this semester will be even more eventful than the last. As I heard about everyone's Chrismas and New Year's Eve stories, I couldn't help but think back to last year's "winter break" in India. It was the first Christmas/New Year's Eve I had spent away from home and my parents so I was fully prepared to do something bold and have a ball but it didn't quite end up that way.

Parenting in a Nutshell

I'm not a parent, not even close, so I can't say this is from my personal experience. But from the many fights and arguments I've had with my parents as a teen, I can now look back and see how they struggled with my "angsty" years. This new year I'll be entering my 20's as my sister begins her teen years. It's going to be another 7 years of teen angst for my parents with constant "why's" and passive aggressive non-violent protests of various rules.
So here's a poem to all parents, guardians, older siblings and friends. The madness will end...eventually!

Photo Blog!

In addition to being a fabulous writer, I also take pictures. ;) I just re-did my old photo blog from high school and will keep that updated as well. Take a look!

Thank you and enjoy! 

Goodbye 2013!

It's been a fantastic year - I can't believe how quickly it's gone by! It feels like just the other day that I was ringing in 2013 in India last year...

Happy (late) Thanksgiving!

I'm like a week late but oh well... it still counts. I don't think I've enjoyed or appreciated thanksgiving as much in the past as I did this year. In previous years, it used to be all about stuffing my face and becoming a giant dumpling while wearing nice clothes. It still is, but I loved this thanksgiving significantly more...
