Did you know college can be hard? Well, last summer I started this blog, intending to carry it on through the school year. However, at the start of the Fall 2025 semester, I was working a LOT, and very heavily involved with several organizations at my university.
I plan on writing more posts in the future to reflect back on my time at Wright State, sharing what I learned from various classes and the numerous leadership positions that I held in my time as an undergraduate. In other words: my biggest life update is that I’ve officially GRADUATED! I now have my degree in English, with a concentration in creative writing and a minor in Deaf Studies.

I think these were the fastest four years of my entire life, and I can’t believe it’s already over. That being said, I am so excited to start my new, big girl job in August of this year. I will not be writing my job on this website, because I’d like to keep it as private as possible. However, I may share the time commitments and other basic information about it, especially as it relates to my writing.
We also moved recently, and am still in the process of that. My cat, Lulu, has been very stressed out by this (in fairness, so have her humans), so I have also been working to make her (and us) comfortable in our new home. She was so stressed she began scratching herself until she bled, so it has been a high priority of mine.

Tomorrow marks one week since my graduation, and I have been taking some time off to simply relax and adapt to a college-free life. As of right now, I have a lot of free time, most of which I’ve spent reading books or wasting my time on social media. I’m trying to get away from the latter, although I am also hoping to post more on TikTok and Instagram over the summer. Since I don’t start my job until August, I have the summer to get into a better routine of writing creatively and creating content for this website and my social media pages. My hope is to share my passions and grow a viewership and, most importantly, a readership that I can carry into my goals of writing novels and stories. My social media content will focus on these goals, as well as book reviews in shorter form than I write them here on my website.
Anyways, writing about my silly self was simply too much to keep up with when I was also completing my coursework, writing for The Wright State Guardian (read wsuguardian.com if you don’t already, there is so much great stuff there. Yes, I’m biased, but still!), and being involved in other organizations, like my sorority and The English Club, which I helped found. Is that a great excuse? Yes, actually, it is; there were times that I felt like I was hanging on by a thread.
However, this website is very fun and therapeutic for me, so I am ECSTATIC to be back at it this summer! Please subscribe for more content about little old me, books I’ve been reading, college stories, writing tips, possibly some article-adjacent stories to let me reminisce on my college journalism career, and more!
Thanks for reading!
