A Glimpse Into the Past
While I feel that my case of senioritis kicked in during my sophomore year of high school, I’m still struggling to wrap my head around the fact that I am almost done with a 13 year chapter of my life. When my dad was cleaning out the garage, he came across a bunch of old…
I’m Stronger Than I Thought I Was
Taking a leap of faith has allowed me to grow as I have completed goals that once seemed so far away.
Why I Love Flying
Driving for me can be a huge stress. Traffic and construction make me antsy and rude drivers make me mad. While flying may still have its issues, I have always preferred it. Patience is a virtue and it is a virtue I am still trying to became worthy of having. While flying may be the…

A Busy Summer
Going into summer means a bit of a transition from my normal posts. This summer, (like all of the past ones) I am going to be traveling a ton! I may not be going outside of the country like last year, but I am travelling to some interesting places. With all of these trips I…
