Reflecting on 2018
Another year has come and gone and so much has changed for me. In Feb. 2018 I wrote a blog about 2017 and saw how vastly my life had changed. Two years of my life have been spent away from Virginia and as I enter my third year in Cape May…I can’t help but realize how much… Continue reading

Why not write a novel?
November is notoriously known as National Novel Writing Month, NaNoWriMo for short. It’s a month where you write approximately1,666 words a day with a goal of 50,000 by the end of the month.

A day in the life
Routines are important, which is something I learned in college. I did not have a good daily routine in high school because I never consistently went to school at the same time – which I 100% attribute to anxiety and insomnia.

Farmville 2.0
It’s crazy to think sometimes that from the age of 2 you start pre-school and you often don’t stop going to school until you graduate from college, at age 22. Twenty years of schooling in the making, to put you out in the world to find a job (and probably not one in your degree… Continue reading

College lite
Before I moved here, I came to visit in October for two weeks. One night while I was watching TV on the couch, I had a moment of panic. Did I really want to move here full time? Would I be lonely and isolated during the offseason? Would I miss my friends and family so… Continue reading

Lifestyle change
I hate exercise in all forms. I’m not a huge fan of being outside, especially if it is hot. So yeah, it’s a little ironic that I’m a beach person. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not an “I’ll sit on the beach no matter how hot it is, even 90 degrees” type; I know… Continue reading

But for those who are new followers, I wanted to let you know a little more… Continue reading
