I think it's important to reflect on things that happen in life. If you don't remember your own history how can you move forward? Or even more importantly how will you remember years from now when this year seems so long ago? Here are 17 things, that though may not necessarily be greatly good or …
Paris: Pastries and Disneyland
If you had to sum up my 21st birthday trip to Paris I would use two words: Pastries and Disneyland. While my parents, my best friend, and I all took a hop on- hop off bus guided tour first day to make sure we saw all the important landmarks Paris had to offer, these two …
4 Things I Learned from Studying Abroad
Study Abroad. These two words were a giant mishmash of exciting and terrifying to me this August.

The Gelato Blogs
I've decided that while I'm in Italy for the semester, to catalog every great/memorable thing that will make me happy to read in the future. No surprise here, gelato (Italian ice cream) will definitely be one of these things!! Now I don't know if it's because I'm in a foreign place with new people or …

Helloooo people of the universe! I've decided to try and give blogging another shot.
