What Threat Do We Face?

In light of the recent tragedy at a high school in Florida, the debate for common sense gun violence is revived by victims and those who have lost loved ones. Unfortunately, law enforcement and those who personally knew the shooter really dropped the ball on this...

In Search of Happy News

I have zero idea of what to blog about. There hasn’t been too much going on in my world lately, as all of my graduate school applications are completed and I’ve been ill for a few days. I did go on a 5-mile hike today, which is exciting and an accomplishment within...

The Law of Attraction

Back in January, I made the New Year’s Resolution to work on myself whenever I had the opportunity. Whether it be through fitness, mental health, being open to new people and experiences, or even learning something new, I was determined to improve my person, even if...

Toxicity (#snipsnip)

The other day, a member in a club of which I am a part started discussing toxic relationships and asking what to do when with faced with one. To my surprise, not many people could even fathom facing the problem in an effective way. Given my extended exposure with this...

Spring in Seattle

For as long as I can remember, I have always spent Spring Break, or what I have always known to be Easter Break, at home with my family. I have never traveled, not to mention across the country, for this off-time. In that sense, I was a bit nervous as I was packing up...
