The past few weeks in Boston have brought lots of writing, editing, exploring and intern adventures. Here’s what I’ve been up to, what I’m thinking about, working on and looking forward to! My days at the Her Campus office are very busy—and so much fun. Every day is a little different depending on my schedule […]
If my life were a movie, this would be the overly dramatic punchline: “After months of mental preparation, 20-year-old college girl from Florida arrives in Boston with three duffel bags of Space Bag-sealed clothes, her laptop and a dream.” Okay, key phrase: overly dramatic. Since my life isn’t a movie and I don’t go about […]
Two years ago, I was a high school senior on the cusp of graduation and a whole lot of new beginnings. Now, I am less than two weeks away from being a rising junior (!!!) on the cusp of so much more than I can imagine as I write this. With my sophomore year at the […]
From Sarasota to St. Petersburg (and a few places in-between), I visited some fun cities over spring break and captured the experiences through my eyes. Though the idea of calling a new place “home” is still an adjustment, it doesn’t hurt to be in a region brimming with culture, gorgeous views and lots to explore. Friends, family and random […]
Last month, I visited St. Thomas and St. John in the U.S. Virgin Islands. The islands are home to incredible beaches and nature, rich history and vibes so laid-back, I found myself questioning where I was in the world (when, in fact, I was technically still in the United States). I’m back at school now, so writing this and looking through […]
Some goodbyes are difficult – like saying goodbye to close friends or family you know you won’t see for a while, while others are not so hard – like how I felt about saying ‘peace out’ to my Astronomy class as a freshman. The goodbye I am thinking and talking about today is the au revoir to my […]
Some parts of this semester did feel like a dream. In the intense, laser-focused atmosphere of finals week, it’s easy to get so caught up in the stress of studying and the excitement of wanting to be done with exams that the memories from the semester mesh together in a blur. Remember in elementary school when the […]
Just like that – my first full month of sophomore year has come and gone. September has brought exams, lots of writing and a lot of sweat, to say the least. It’s “fall” in Florida – a.k.a. people are excited about eating, living and breathing pumpkin spice everything and wearing jeans (a death wish), but it’s actually still 90º. […]
The past few weeks have featured a whole lot of chaos, countless laughs, a couple pairs of ridiculously uncomfortable shoes, a few hangry moments thrown in there for good measure – and very little sleep – but, here I am, back in the Gator Nation with a new blog post! It’s still pretty Greek to me I recently took part in formal […]
As I sit at the airport gate to head back to Gainesville for my sophomore year, I am flooded with thoughts and memories about my busy but special summer. I knew this moment was approaching – but I just cannot believe where I am today vs. where I was a little over one year ago. (I was actually […]
