Musings from the Quarter Life: Trying to write when there are no words
http://musingsfromthequarterlife.blogspot.com/2015/07/trying-to-write-when-there-are-no-words.html
Sunday, July 5, 2015. Trying to write when there are no words. Today my life changed, I am sure of it. This post is a bit hard for me to write, because what I experienced today is very hard to put into words. It’s something that I would encourage anyone and everyone to experience for themselves. Even so, I feel like I must at least try. I decided to visit to the 9/11 museum. By the Naudet brothers (a film everyone. Another part that I found so incredible was the photography exhibit, “. 160; This p...

Musings from the Quarter Life: The Opposite of Loneliness
http://musingsfromthequarterlife.blogspot.com/2014/04/the-opposite-of-loneliness.html
Tuesday, April 22, 2014. The Opposite of Loneliness. I’m writing this because I can’t stand not to do so. In less than 24 hours and 208 pages, my life was changed. After hearing about Marina Keegan. Via a beauty-shop text from my mom, I bought her collection of essays and stories, The Opposite of Loneliness. As a young, aspiring writer, I related so deeply to Marina and feel some strange connection to her that I can’t even begin to explain. Lection, yet writes in such a descriptive, detailed manner. ...

Thursday, July 30, 2015. The Things That Feel Most Personal. Originally published by Quarter For Your Crisis. This summer, it seems like my friends. People again, as we like to joke. As I hailed my gals a cab back to Penn Station, I was reminded of a particular quote, which I eagerly shared:. 8220;The things that feel most personal are often the most universal.”. Although each of us walks a unique path, it’s isn’t it comforting to know that we aren’t ever really alone in anything? Trust me, I’m stu...

Musings from the Quarter Life: Deciding To Be Different
http://musingsfromthequarterlife.blogspot.com/2015/08/deciding-to-be-different.html
Monday, August 3, 2015. Deciding To Be Different. This summer, I've spent a lot of time talking with a lot of different people about corporate America. After a series of internships separated by semesters of school and holiday breaks, it's feels strange to think about starting a job without an end date. In fact, it's downright terrifying to think about hopping on the corporate wheel. Where did that time go? It's no secret that I adore Marina Keegan. At Yale, she’s worked hard in pursuit of these go...

adventures in overthinking: May 2014
http://overthinkingadventures.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
My journey to enlightenment. Tuesday, May 20, 2014. I have a lot of stuff rumbling around in my head, so if you're here, be warned: My mind is a crazy place. I often share too much, but in my family of origin no one talked about anything unpleasant. Everyone pretended everything was fine. You know how effed up fine is, right? Why did you talk so much when you should have been listening? What on earth made you tell that story? Why would you divulge THAT in a five minute exchange of pleasantries? When I am...

Musings from the Quarter Life: Thanks for being my sunshine
http://musingsfromthequarterlife.blogspot.com/2015/06/thanks-for-being-my-sunshine.html
Sunday, June 28, 2015. Thanks for being my sunshine. Competition has never been my thing. I’m not a big fan of flaunting possessions or talents, and I think my biggest competitor is myself. To feel like you don’t measure up or can’t keep up. Making decisions that feel right or smart can also be confused with making decisions because they are comfortable, which adds a whole new level of doubt. Did I choose this option just because I’m too scared to take a risk on the other? Feel her pain. I know she w...

Musings from the Quarter Life: Big Girl Life
http://musingsfromthequarterlife.blogspot.com/2015/07/big-girl-life_3.html
Friday, July 3, 2015. This is one of my favorite pictures from the big girl chronicles: My friends Grace and Catherine. Celebrating our first successful attempt at making family dinner! Minimal amount of Googling, maximum amount of giggling). I spend a lot of time thinking and talking about what I’m so eloquently referring to as “big girl life”. My friends and I have resorted to screaming, “so this is what it means to be a twenty-something! I think there must be magic in the air, because lately my life r...
