Well, hello there, beautiful people! The holiday season is coming to a close as we welcome the new year and it's really a bittersweet feeling. I'm kind of happy that the holidays are pretty much over because I am so over the stress of holiday shopping. But it kind of sucks because school is going to be starting back up again soon and I am loving my vacation so far. Saying goodbye to the holidays also means saying goodbye to the family members that you only get to see a few...

               Well, hello there, beautiful people! Last week was the start my first official week of Winter Break from school so I spent the week doing absolutely nothing with simple, carefree bliss. It felt great to have no obligations for a week, but I'm not a person who can sit at home for an entire month and do nothing. Though the idea of bumming it for a month does seem inviting after a long semester, it's actually quite boring. As I've learned from past years, if I'm not productive over break, I'm...

                             Well, hello there, beautiful people! By now, I'm pretty sure you guys are all done with finals (at least I hope so) and that's definitely something to celebrate. So a quick disclaimer: I want to apologize for putting up this blog post up so late in the day; it has been a crazy few days. For starters, I TURNED 21 LAST THURSDAY!!! Needless to say, I've been celebrating my birthday for a few days. I've also been spending time with family, doing some Christmas...

               Well, hello there, beautiful people! It has been a crazy week, but I am finally done with classes! However, this week is finals week, so I can't sit around and do nothing just yet (but almost). So last week I blogged about some study tips I had to help you guys kill your final exams. I had a pretty big list and I didn't want to make one huge blog post that was the length of a Harry Potter book last week, so I decided to split my list up into...

               Well, hello there, beautiful people! I'm sure that Thanksgiving break was a very much needed break for most of you; it sure was for me. But unfortunately, the semester isn't over yet (even though it's so close to being over) and most of us college kids still have final exams to worry about. I know... it sucks to think about. But worry not! After a few semesters of being pretty clueless when it came to finals, I have finally been able to come up with a list (which I've broken up...

Well hello there, beautiful people! QUICK NOTE: I'm currently listening to Pentatonix on Spotify while writing this post and they're giving me so much life right now! I just needed to share that...                So I know that I've been gone for a while now (about two months, to be exact). I know, I know! That's terrible. Please don't judge me (though after two months, you have every right to). I promise you that I did NOT forget about this blog; I've actually been thinking about it quite a bit. This semester...

               Hello there, beautiful people! I cannot explain how excited I am to finally be writing my first post on this blog! As you've probably guessed from the title of this post, I'm going to be talking about college backpack essentials, which are crazy important in college! I don't know about you guys, but when I was in high school (which feels like forever ago), we weren't allowed to carry our backpacks to class. We had to haul our heavy textbooks up and down the stairs all day and it was horrible....
