Who reading this feels that they have multiple things to offer the world. I know I do.

That's why I'm putting all these words on this page. Not to tell you that we should all be interested in a million things, but because I don't want to pick ONE thing, I don't want to BE ONE thing. I want to be creative, and analytical, a #girlboss, and a mom. I want to be kind, but I want to speak my mind and not apologize for it. I don't like being told too choose, I refuse.

Thinking that my life could end up being dedicated to one single thing for 40 years makes me itchy, phobic, and downright depressed. I have the upmost respect for people that can really commit to working/being one thing, but my personality won't allow for that.

I want to have my cake and eat it too, I want to work out at 5:30 in the morning and have a healthy lifestyle, but I still want to drink that ten precent craft until two in the morning. Balance is the word, but I don't want balance, I want a full throttle, e-brake, burning rubber to stop kind of life.Moderation is for wimps (not really, but I'm totally incapable of balance, ask my husband). I love hard, I fail hard, and I live hard. I don't think that's anything to be embarrassed about or ashamed of, I think that's something to celebrate.

Three years ago I moved to a new town after college and had no idea what I was doing with my life. I had just graduated and I completely underestimated the emotional toll that moving into a new life stage took. I had a job I was thankful for, but not happy at, so I decided to get a dog (disclaimer - he is totally awesome, but so much work, yet I can't imagine how much cheaper he was than therapy), take a night class twice a week for 3.5 hours after work, and maintain the social life I had in college. Needless to say, I did end up realizing that I have to be reasonable while "living life to the fullest"

Everyday I'm learning, and it's not by being passive, It's because I'm out there trying twelve new things a week, finding out what my passions are, living my life to the fullest. I've learned a few things along the way.

So lets go all in, and lets make sure that our legacy is "she had no idea what she was doing, but she did it all".

Be fierce my fellow humans.

Cheers

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
