Hello, blog readers! I’ve actually lifted my head from my mass media law textbook to show some long-overdue TLC to The Darcy Diaries. The countdown to graduation is just about as nail-biting as it gets, but I’m remaining optimistic as I keep my eyes peeled for post-grad opportunities and soak up my (numbered) months of […]
I recently returned to swampy Florida from my bagel-filled summer in New York City, and there’s so much to unpack — aside from my hefty duffel bags of clothes, that is. This summer, I spent two months as an intern for The Style Line and its agency CONNECT(ED)ITORIAL. From photoshoots on brownstone-lined Brooklyn streets to inspiring […]
This morning, I crammed myself onto the 1 train to Canal, and I somehow got wedged in one of those horrible spots that’s an awkward distance from any handrail. It’s happened to me before on subway commutes, but this time was different. No matter how many times I shimmied to the right or left or […]
Films that fall under the romantic comedy genre have long been regarded as purely frivolous, fun and feel-good — but the rom-com genre has a rich history, and though its peak era ended in the early 2000s, it’s a genre that has a place in American film culture. In case you’ve been living under a […]
Hello from the corner of junior and senior year! I’m in disbelief that, aside from an exam (and just a couple more papers), I’ve completed my third year at UF. My good friend Marla, who’s been studying in Denmark all semester, recently wrote a blog post where she talked about how hindsight is 20/20. In […]
When I was little, I had a Barbie music box that played an instrumental version of a Simon & Garfunkel song, “The 59th Street Bridge Song” (also known as “Feelin’ Groovy”). Of course, when I was 6 or 7 or however old I was when I fell asleep to the lazy tune and semi-creepy spinning […]
On a rainy day in 2004, I went on what I thought was a typical movie date with my mom (aka the best kind of movie date there is) to the Sandusky State Theater (which smelled like mothballs and typically hosted obscure cover bands, but sometimes showed movies). That rainy movie day turned out to […]
Hello from the corner of happy and humid! I’m back in Gainesville for year three, and though it’s just the beginning of the semester, there’s already lots of work to be done and stories to be told. Speaking of beginnings, about two years ago, I wrote my first blog post as a freshman at UF. […]
Just like that, my time in Boston has come to a close. Since I was early (as usual) to the airport, I scoped out the free WiFi password, and I’m coming to you live with lots of thoughts (26, to be exact) about this unforgettable summer. Here we go! A is for Always an adventure […]
Each week seems to fly by faster than when the Red Line T races past me on the tracks and makes my hair go everywhere. It’s crazy to think I’ve now been here for more than a month—which, in the grand scheme of things, is a relatively short time—and how much I’ve done and learned […]
