{via} Welcome, back! These past few weeks have been super busy but I am happy to begin blogging again. Please stay tuned for some fun posts coming up soon, I will make an effort to post every week. After surviving my first school week, it's surprisingly nice to be back on a schedule. Before I get ahead of myself, let me give a...
Hi, all! In honor of the new school year, as promised I am sharing with you on today's blog post some of my favorite (and fun) items to bring to college! Some are more practical than others, but it seems that no matter how much I age back to school shopping never gets old. With my internship finishing last Friday, the last thing...
Today marks the last day of my internship. It still feels a bit surreal. Driving to work today was strange in itself because I knew this would be the last time I would be commuting this route every morning at 7:30 AM. During the course of over 10 weeks, I could recall my summer in one word: busy. A full-time internship taught me...
Happy August! With less than two weeks till I head back to school, I could not be more excited. The other night, my boyfriend and I talked about it and we agreed that it will be nice to be on our own schedules. We will not only be able to hang out more easily with our friends, but with each other. Before I...
Sometimes we all need to feel uncomfortable. Whether it's beginning a new school, relationship or meeting new people being uncomfortable is normal. Taking risks is something I shy away from, but this past week I took a risk which was well worth it. For the first week of August, I was one of five students selected to be a part of my university's...
Makeup is a topic I am not very knowledgeable about. Ever since I was younger makeup had always seemed foreign to me. I do not know how to properly apply eyeshadow or mascara, and honestly I am perfectly fine with that. Makeup should accentuate the features you have, not hide them. In opinion, the more the makeup the less I feel like myself....
Although I may be preparing to live in a tiny dorm for another year, gallery walls have been on my mind, as of late. Gallery walls can be such conversation starter in the room. They can often brighten up the space and add some color to a blank wall. For a more "grown up" look in my dorm room this year, I decided...
To kick off this Monday, I am publishing my first back to school post to celebrate! As many begin to finish their summer jobs, classes, and trips- now is the time to begin to create a college checklist before it's too late. Part of my back to school series, I first wanted to share my favorite items you to keep in your college...
As previously discussed in my blog, I have been keeping busy this summer with my internship. In fact. it inspired me to create my blog in order to learn more about my job in digital marketing. Last week I received an email from the Human Resources manager in charge of my internship program, explaining that we must give a presentation on the summer...
Happy Hump Day! Hope you all are enjoying what's left of this summer because I definitely I am. A month from today I will yet again be packing my bags (however, to be fair some of my bags have yet to be unpacked) and going back to school. Another tidbit is that a exactly month ago, I wrote my first blog post. Crazy...
The term "personal brand" is such a new concept but very necessary in order to succeed in today's work force. Those who are close to me know that I am a huge advocate when it comes to personal branding. From updating my resumé to building my digital portfolio- these type of things make my heart do a little dance in my chest. One...
I cannot express (even this blog post) how much I love Heinen's! Between Giant Eagle, Walmart, Wegmans (shoutout to Buffalo/Rochester), I will forever be a Heinen's shopper. When I was younger, there was a store about 10 minutes from my house. After school or during the weekends, my mom would drag me grocery shopping since then, the rest is history. The family -...
I am the type of person who LOVES giving gifts. It could be a teacher, neighbor, friend- I enjoy surprising people with something whether it be planned out or impromptu. Luckily, my gift giving skills will be put to good use with my dad's birthday coming up next week. While I hate this term, some may call me "daddy's little girl." It's evident...
TGIF! Can we please ask ourselves again how is it already July? I have to pinch myself sometimes- the idea of returning to college in the fall is bittersweet. While staying at home is relaxing, I miss being on a schedule. There are moments this summer where I often do not know what to do with myself. Being productive and keeping busy is...
I am still shocked by the number of restaurants in CLE. As a young professional, convenience is everything. While I do enjoy cooking and discovering new recipes, I don't mind dining out every once in a while. And living in Cleveland, the options here are plentiful. In fact, last year Cleveland was ranked 7th in the nation on Time.com's "Best Foodie Cities" list....
