Going to George Mason University is pretty darn cool. But, when I first signed up back in January of 2008 I was full of resentment; I hated that I was commuting, I hated that my parents chose the school and not I (good decision though) and I hated GMU because a lot of Northern Virginians […]

Writing about politics is something I never thought I would do. I’ve just never been into politics. I have my own opinions of course, but I’m definitely not a political know-it-all. If you asked me about politics two weeks ago I probably couldn’t have said much, let alone say anything at all about Pennsylvanian politics. […]

I’ll just say it. England isn’t happening anymore. It feels almost unreal to say it because I’ve been planning to go for so long now, but yes, it’s not happening. I guess you want to know why and I can’t say I completely know why to be honest. It’s a mixture of things really. It’s […]

As you probably could have guessed, NYC was amazing. My whole life I’ve always thought D.C. was the greatest city in the United States, but NYC could quite possibly take that honor. On the first day, my sister on several occasions compared to D.C. to NYC, but really they are very different cities, culture wise. […]

In about six hours I will be departing my house in NoVa and heading to the big, beautiful city that is New York City! I’m beyond excited! I’ll be heading up there via Bolt Bus with my sister and my good friend Marcela and staying at a decent hotel near Times Square. I’m not exactly […]

Today was a very bittersweet day for me. Today was perhaps, if not the last, one of the last days, that I will spend at the Office of Student Media until I get back from England in December. Even then I probably won’t visit until January sometime. Although the office is new (we only moved-in […]

Update, Sunday, May 22 at 2:15 a.m.: I added an image to the bottom of this post after reading this week’s PostSecret. Quick update on my life: I’ve finally found out what day I’m starting my internship–June 13! It’s the perfect timing because it will give me a full week to get ready for London […]
