                                        Sunday, February 10, 2013. To Know Who You Are. I heard an old story a few years ago that has been heard around the world by billions of people, I'm sure. The author and title are unknown, but the morale of the story has always resonated within me. I think about that story often and compare it to the free agency in which we are given. ".whether the butterfly is dead or alive, it depends on you".it depends on us. it depends on me. How often do we encounter forks in the road? A home surrounded by trees as ...

                                        Sunday, April 20, 2014. So much has happened since I've last blogged. I'll get to writing about it all eventually. First, I want to share the best of the best news. I'm a proud and smitten aunt to this sweet girl! Lucky girl has two wonderful people as her mommy and daddy. I am so in love.

                                        Wednesday, February 5, 2014. My first official post living on the East Coast. I don’t really have an excuse for not updating my blog other than the fact that I just haven’t felt like it. I figured I better write this fast while I’m in the blogging mood, and before I get distracted by some meaningless task. I’m gonna be completely honest and say that moving to Virginia has been an adjustment, and a hard one at that. It’s not easy moving to a place where you know not a single soul. Excuse my wretched look&...

                                        Saturday, June 7, 2014. My Student Teaching Experience. Back in December I flew over mountains, hills, and valleys to Northern Virginia. My plane arrived at the stroke of midnight on New Years Eve, or rather, New Years Day I suppose. Good luck or bad luck? Anyway, back on topic, the reason I went to Virginia was to student teach. Why Virginia, you ask? Cue the dramatic reaction). Nonetheless, I was grateful I had the opportunity to go back East and start the beginning of the end.

                                        Wednesday, September 25, 2013. Shout out to my older brother. Earlier this month I was finally able to revisit NYC! I have my older brother, Jonny to thank for that. Why? Because the kid got into one of the top podiatry schools in the country! Way to make the rest of us look bad.just kidding. But really, my brother has crazy discipline, ambition, and the smarts. So for the next four years they will be calling New York home. Wish this kid could have been there with us, but he was there in spirit!

                                        Saturday, October 25, 2014. Life at its Finest. Saturday mornings.my favorite and most cherished time of the week. Waking to no alarm, cozying up in over-sized sweatshirts, there's simply nothing better. Today, I woke up and decided to indulge in oatmeal banana chocolate chip pancakes. It's been a long time since I've been able to just sit down and write, and I'd forgotten how much I love it. Reflecting back, I never thought I'd be where I am today. I have a job! Whitney, look how young we were! Blog des...

                                        Monday, May 4, 2015. I guess that's what initiated our breakup, the unexpected. I've come to realize that the older I get, the more things bother me. Not in a cranky, grouchy, old woman type of way, but in a, " do I really need this in my life? I understand that my break up will come as a shock to many. After all, everyone who knows me has known about us. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I'm your average working girl spending most of my days teaching teens. I'm in love with New York City.

                                        Thursday, June 4, 2015. I don't know a better way to kick off summer {and end our birthday celebrations} than spend a relaxing afternoon at the majestic Lake Tahoe. There's no place like it. Jenna and I have known each other for a whopping fourteen years. FOURTEEN! We met as awkward twelve-year-olds. She liked ballet, and I. Long talks about everything and nothing.

                                        Wednesday, August 28, 2013. I just hit a milestone in my life. Actually, two milestones. This is my last semester, yes, last semester on the UNR campus. I submitted my paperwork for student teaching in Maryland. Or dump a cold bucket of water on my head. Or find me a crystal ball and tell me everything will be okay. Cause this girl is FREAKING OUT!

                                        Thursday, May 8, 2014. These are a few of my favorite things. It's the little things in life we take for grated. Putting on clothes right out of the dryer. The first shower after camping. Crawling in bed with fresh sheets and newly shaved legs. Standing in the shower with the perfect amount of water pressure and an endless stream of hot water. Your alarm goes off, right before you get up, you realize it's the weekend, and fall happily back to sleep. Nailing the perfect messy bun on your first attempt.
