All great changes are preceded by chaos. --Deepak Chopra Do you want to know something about 2017? Well, if you take a recap from last year, I turned eighteen, graduated high school, committed from one great college to another, published my book, and started my freshman year.

From Food to Family– Holidays Through the Ages
After successfully eating far too much food yesterday and continuing to munch on leftovers throughout the day, there’s nothing quite like the holidays. We all have our own traditions, like decorating the house for Christmas the moment Turkey day is over, or filling the house with Christmas music a little early because it’s never too…Read more From Food to Family– Holidays Through the Ages
Big News and a Few Haikus

An Open Letter To College Freshman
It wasn't until I had a conversation with an old friend yesterday that I realized I'm going into my second year of college— I'm not a freshman anymore. To look back on the beginning of college last year, it's odd to think of myself as two different people; the me then and the me now. But…Read more An Open Letter To College Freshman
Inside Out– A poem
Today’s the day— Nick and I are moving into our first house this weekend. As summer classes start Thursday and we make our way towards sophomore year, it seems that a lot of things are changing.
