Save the Bees!

Alright y'all, I have a confession to make. I have a new obsession with bees. It all began when I visited the Savannah Bee Company located in Savannah, Georgia. Something about the vibe of the store just screamed "me". After tasting local honey and testing honey lotions and scrubs, I fell in love. I bought…

Why do you want to be a teacher?

The title of this blog post is a question that I get almost every day. In light of what's going on in today's news, I wanted to share my journey of becoming an education major and a future teacher with you guys while also sharing my perspective on this issue. All of my life I…

San Antonio, Texas

For the past three years, my best friend Betsy and I have flown to Texas for Spring Break to visit her family (heck, they've become my family now too). The past two trips, we stayed in the Cypress/Houston area where her aunt, uncle, and cousins live (I will talk more about Cypress & Houston in…

Pittsburgh, PA

Happy Friday! We've almost made it to the weekend! If you live anywhere near me, you know that we are about to get snowed in for the next 24 (or more) hours. I don't know about you but when I get snowed in, I start planning mini-vacations in my head with a little help from…

Goodbye 2017, Hello 2018!

"Whatever happened over this past year, be thankful for where it brought you. Where you are is where you're meant to be." Wow! It is hard to believe that another year has come and gone. To some, this year was very trying and difficult. To others, this year was uplifting, exciting, and full of hope.…

Lake Windermere, England

Happy Holidays, loves! Speaking of holidays, this blog post will be dedicated to the second stop on our European "holiday" as the Brits call it, Windermere, England! After three days in Scotland, my parents and I hopped on a train (which is a very common mode of transportation across the pond) and ended up right…

Edinburgh, Scotland

Long time, no blog! I am sorry to say that I neglected my blog throughout the entire fall semester of school but now it's winter break and I'm back! Y'all are stuck with me and my obsession with travel once again! I am so excited to finally get to share with all of you a…

Destiny Rescue

Happy Friday loves! With Independence Day week ending, I find it important to reflect about our freedom. Freedom is a simple word meaning the power to think, act, or speak as one wants. Freedom also means the state of not being enslaved. Most of us, including myself, would say we have a fair amount of…

The Big Reveal

As mentioned in a previous post, I have a HUGE adventure awaiting me this summer and now it is time that I share the surprise with y'all! In precisely 27 days I am going to hop on a plane and fly to......wait on it......EUROPE! I am going with my parents to celebrate their 25th wedding…

Birthday Outing 06.10.17

"To plan for a trip is necessary. To expect a trip to go just as planned is nonsense." As I've stated before and will continue to state time and time again, travel does not always go as planned. I experienced a true example of this yesterday. Yesterday, myself and three of my friends (Betsy, Alyssa,…
