Welcome to my brain dump!!!! There has just been A LOT going on recently, which is always fun, but it’s always good to recap and dump the thoughts out. I’m starting back two weeks from today, where I ran a cyber comp that went really well, but you can read...

The day of the White Out game started like any other weekend, my roommate and I were out, enjoying some time together before heading to work at 6 PM. But when we got to the store, the door was locked, and People we didn’t recognize were inside, closing up. After...

A lot of us in PLA are very go – go – go. For those of us who took Honors 301, Dean Mather taught us a lot about our Saboteurs. Mine was Anxious Achiever, along with some others in the class as well. It makes a lot of sense – I am anxious to do the...

Yesterday was my first time playing Catan, and as someone who enjoys strategy games like Chess or social deduction games similar to Mafia, where you must read opponents, anticipate moves, and act proactively, I found it immediately engaging. These types of games...

This week, I am going to continue my discussion of National Parks, focusing on the first national park I ever visited: the Grand Canyon. A lot of people are familiar with the Grand Canyon because of its beauty and geologic wonder. When I was much younger, I went with...

This week, I really tried to embrace the idea that to lead well, you have to take care of yourself first. This semester, like all of them, has been busy. Between scholarship applications, thesis writing, and leadership roles, I’ve had plenty of late nights despite a...

This week, it was my very-best-friend-forever’s (VBFF) twentieth birthday. I spent a few hours trying to compile the best collection of all of our best moments in photos over the seven years we have been “very best friend” status. While looking at...

We all know that the success of learning new material is not only because of the study method you use, but also because of the area where you choose to study. The study space that you use can make or break how productive you are when studying. Now, everyone knows of...

Lately, I’ve been living in a constant state of in-between. Located somewhere between deadlines and dreams are my to-do lists and long-term goals. On paper, my life looks structured and intentional. In reality, I often feel like I’m just trying to keep up. I’m...

This semester has been one of the most overwhelming periods of my college experience. Between school, extracurricular activities, and leadership responsibilities, it feels like time is slipping through my hands, and no matter how hard I push, I never fully catch up....

Today I wanted to talk about some of the things I enjoyed doing this week. I got this idea from a similar blog I read a few weeks ago, which talked about all of the things that entertained them (I don’t remember who it was but if you’re reading this…...

Hi, all! Today, I wanted to discuss the recent successes of one of the student organizations I head! We’ve been struggling since two years ago, when nearly everyone in our organization left (not kidding, all but me and one other person remained) and our advisor...

I drafted the below Saturday morning only for James Franklin to have the most embarrassing loss of his Penn State career hours later—how fitting. The UCLA game was inexcusable. I feel that my thoughts may now be in the minority. Regardless, I still stand by much of...

With watching any sports team, it is certainly expected that you will face stress at some point. Not every team can be good for years at a time, but being a New York sports fan is definitely interesting. As many may know, New York has two good baseball teams, one good...

I am the type of person when walking who stares at the ground. I don’t know what it is about the floor, but I find it easier to mind my business that way than keeping my head up. While I might miss out on some sights, it is interesting because I’ve started...
