Almost two weeks back home now and I've been catching up on my reading lists little by little. By now, I've read at least 2,500 pages between about 5 books, added far too many quotes to my quote wall, and found one book that I am discovering so much in that I just had to…Read more How to “Do Good Work”

Farewell to Freshman Year
They say that time flies when you're having fun, and this year… Well if nothing else, it has been an absolute whirlwind of classes, new people, far too many names, and of course, countless nights of fun to collide into what I now hold dear as the memories of my freshman year. Just like that,…Read more Farewell to Freshman Year
What it means to have Pride
Welcome to June, the month I finally get to begin my (short) summer, the weather really starts heating up, and the world gets to celebrate something very important. Welcome to Pride Month.

We are now over halfway through our final quarter of freshman year here at Cal Poly and the atmosphere is starting to change ever so slightly. You know those moments when…Read more Time Flies When…
Eighteen going on Ninteen
“And there are people who forget what it’s like to be sixteen when they turn seventeen. I know these will all be stories some day, and our pictures will become old photographs.” A week ago, I pinkie promised Nick that I would not throw him a surprise party for our birthday. So what did I…Read more Eighteen going on Ninteen
