10 Things I Hope To Do In 2019
Heaven Nash

Some may want to be a nurse, a teacher, run a marathon, or go to 50 concerts. This is AMAZING, but I want to do more before God calls me home. What does this look like?

1. Make a difference 

Making a difference in not only my life, but someone else's as well. As a future helping professional come May, there are many ways to make a difference. Leave kind words behind, volunteer your time, donate to a good cause, become a mentor, be a light in a dark tunnel.

2. Listen from my heart

Active listening is hard in a world of technology when it is easy to hide behind a screen while someone is looking for a listening ear. You never know when someone is suffering the most until you listen with everything you've got. Listen to the struggling sister, the brokenhearted, the classmate in your math class, the girl going through a breakup, whatever you do, listen.

3. Heal wounds

Wounds are hard to heal from; it takes a ton of patience and work. Nurturing my heart, knowing that my feelings are real and valid. Investing in therapy, reminding myself of who God says I am, and knowing that I am wanted and worthy.

4. Tackle a bucket list

Bucket lists already

5. Grow

6. Fail

7. Face fears

8. Never "Work" A Day Of My Life

"If you love your job, you'll never work a day in your life". We've all heard it, throughout this crazy thing we call life, I want to experience exactly what this feeling is.

9. Trusting God with all I've got

God has a plan and a purpose of your life.

10. Never take anything for granted

40 Gift Ideas for the Indecisive

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.
