After being engaged for a few months now, I've had a lot of people ask their fair share of questions. I've had a lot of questions get asked multiple times. I've decided once and for all to compile a list of questions that I have been asked and I'll answer them all.

1. "How did he propose?"

Chances are, if you don't already know the answer to this question, we probably don't talk much. We spent the day out and about and going to different places and restaurants and we ended up at Noble Park and took a walk around and ended up under a gazebo. I was looking at the geese on the water and he tapped my back so I would turn around and there he was on one knee.

2. "Did he ask for your parents blessing?"

He asked my mom for her blessing and she gave it to him, yes.

3. "When is the big day?"

We have no idea. Because we're both from different countries, we have to go through a lot more processes than just your average couple. It's a lot of paperwork and a lot of money.

4. "Are you engaged because you're pregnant?"

No, I'm not pregnant.

5. "Who are you inviting to the wedding?"

We haven't even gotten that far yet. It could be a small wedding, could be a large one. Who knows, really?

6. "Where is the honeymoon?"

We'll let our friends and family know once we straighten out the details.

7. "Are you changing your name?"

Yes, I will be taking his last name.

8. "What does your ring look like?"

I don't ever mind showing my ring, but please don't ask how expensive (or non-expensive) it was.

9. "Do you have colors picked out yet?"

We have an idea of what colors we would like the wedding to have, but there are no final details.

10. “Am I invited to the wedding?"

If you have to ask if you're invited to my wedding, then you probably know whether or not you're invited.

11. “How long have you two even been together?"

Not that it truly matters, but we've been together for a year and a half. PSA: The amount of time you've been with someone does not determine if you're ready to marry them or not

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."

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

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…

Great Value Colleges

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.
