The Art of Letting Go
Last week Friday, I walked (skipped) out of my final day of work at Kohls incredibly excited to have an entire week off from work. I had so much planned, most of which included my book signing, sleeping, playing music, hanging out, and reading, because it was my last week in Folsom and I wanted…Read more The Art of Letting Go
A Little Goes a Long Way
Back in 2012 when the song "Little Things" by One Direction came out, I remember thinking of all the people I cared about and the small things they did that I loved about them. I also remember thinking of all the things I have done for people, of how small some of them were. A…Read more A Little Goes a Long Way
How to ride a bike
When you first learned how to ride a bike, what was the hardest part about it? For me, it was this idea that we could start moving our feet, the wheels would then follow, and somehow we were supposed to avoid falling over while we moved our feet even faster. How were the wheels supposed to keep…Read more How to ride a bike

A Life Worth Living
As we grow up, it's fascinating to watch as our circle of people grows larger with every new direction our lives take. We start off with our family, then a few friends, and from there we make that 360 degree ring larger every step of the way, from preschool to high school and beyond. Along…Read more A Life Worth Living
End Of Summer, Beginning of a New Chapter
It seems that summer is winding down as schools in the area resume next week, meaning that this week is the last full semana of summer. I would like to say that for most people, it has meant spending as much time with friends and family as possible while enjoying the time while it lasted, but…Read more End Of Summer, Beginning of a New Chapter
Give Me Love
For the past few weeks now, my friends and I have all been watching the Bachelorette together. Every Monday night, we meet up at someone's house and just watch it, all the while eating a lot of food and talking a lot of crap. Over the course of about two months, we have watched this…Read more Give Me Love
Find Your Own Independence
This week, I finally sent my final manuscript into the printing process. Only one thing went through my mind: I'm almost there. For the past eighteen years of my life, I have been told to dream out loud and find something I love to do, to find something that I know will always be a…Read more Find Your Own Independence
