So as some of my readers may know, I made my way to Austin, Texas for Thanksgiving break where I had a less than enjoyable (and certainly emotional) experience in the middle of a tattoo parlor. My micro-breakdown aside, my time in Austin was an absolute blast. Having Melinda’s home as a base made for… [Read more…]
Thus far, my life can be appropriately divided into two The Deathly Hallows-sized chapters. The first, lasting from the time I was forcibly cut from my mother’s womb to about age 16, and second from age 16 until this present moment. The first chapter of my life consisted of an irrational fear of … well,… [Read more…]
Like most negative emotions I’ve processed in my life, I’m all for getting them out of my system in one fell swoop. Why diddle-daddle for a week as fun-loving 7th grader about not getting straight A’s when one solid emotional breakdown can get it all out! That being said, I managed to purge all cultural… [Read more…]
In the midst of starting senior year (insert quarter life crisis), interning (“You take sugar with your coffee?”), and life, my blog has gone by the wayside for a better part of the last few months. But it’s a new year which means a new start for all of my hobbies. Yoga, blogging, and my… [Read more…]
Well, I’m at last moved into my apartment and finally into the swing of my life as an unpaid intern and starving student. But it’s time to get back to business and tie up the loose ends of my time in Europe. Where we last left off, we were leaving the posh streets of Paris… [Read more…]
Hi readers! Sorry for the delay for the lack of posts over the last week, after moving back to Boston, it’s been a whirl wind of loan applications, moving, and eating out because I have no kitchen supplies as of yet. But I promise tomorrow I will begin to recap my Europe adventure before the… [Read more…]
To those of you who may have studied French in high school, I’m fully aware that the above title makes no grammatical sense. But humor me for one moment will you? It’s hard to be completely original when coming up with a write-up for Paris. It’s the city of love! It’s the city of dreams! It’s the… [Read more…]
Chocolate. Waffles. Belgium cut fries. These are the three words that come to mind when I hear the word “Belgium.” And perhaps rightfully so. During our two day stint in the country, we explored the cities of Ghent and Bruges and it wasn’t hard to come across some of Belgium’s staple treats. Most of our… [Read more…]
Ok, let’s cut to chase. Amsterdam is known for weed and hookers. Loaded tourists come with a heavy wallet and in their eagerness to empty it, spend the rest of their time in the Netherlands baked out of their mind with a call-girl named Tootsy. Americans especially love the fact that weed is “legal” and… [Read more…]
It wouldn’t be a true European adventure without some kind of strange bodily secretion story. I’m happy to say that it was neither Michael or I who ended up doing something… err, embarrassing. Rather, we were the victims of the aforementioned fluid attack. Let me preface this story by saying that we had a wonderful,… [Read more…]
