Hey hey. Happy Friday! It’s especially happy because I’m writing this post-finals and at home. Having birthday week (<- giveaway post!) during finals week made it a weird one, but it was ultimately a pretty great week - and I have an awesome weekend planned. I’m pretty freaking excited and I can’t wait to share it with you Monday. But…

Happy Friday! What are your exciting weekend plans? Mine include studying for a midterm, applications, and homework! Yay, student life! I intend to make it as fun as I can, though. It’s all in your mindset, right? What do you say we start the weekend off with a positive one by looking back at some of our favorite little…
My Hotel Home
I do about 75% of my studying in my dorm room. I can get up and move around and listen to music and snack in my room (now apartment). Maybe 15% of the time, I study in our house lounge or the beautiful economics building for a change of scenery and some extra socialization. But the other…

Happy Friday! Did you have a good week? A good Thanksgiving? Any big plans for the weekend? I wanna know! I’m planning to enjoy a weekend of baking and hockey and college football and family time before I head back to school and get in full finals-studying mode. I’m pretty excited for the post-finals Christmas break…
Thinking Out Loud: Thankful
Hey hi hello! Happy Thanksgiving to my friends in the US and happy Thursday to everyone else! After wrapping up some school stuff, I flew home yesterday afternoon and spent the evening shopping with my mom. Today, we’re headed out for a nice Thanksgiving lunch/dinner and some relaxation with my grandparents and great uncle. It’s a good day…

Hey hi hello! Happy Friday! How was your week? Aside from my cold (which I think is getting better), mine was actually pretty nice, and my workload for the weekend looks lighter than usual. And next week is a short week because of Thanksgiving! Life is good. With that established, let’s take a look at some of…
A (Wonderful) Whirlwind Weekend
I apologize for that alliteration… and my propensity for them. Anyway, hey there and happy Monday! Did you have a good weekend? I so did. But it went super fast and I think I’d already like another one… Oh, well. It’s back to the grind today, but I want to share my lovely weekend with you…

Happy weekend! Do you have exciting plans? I have “exciting” essay-writing plans. Basically, I’m going to spend a good chunk of the weekend in the company of Karl Marx and Adam Smith. I know you’re jealous. 😉 Don’t worry - I’ll manage to have some fun, too, but this is the home stretch of my…

Hey hi hello! Happy Friday! Do you have big weekend plans? I do - if studying a lot counts. 😛 It’s midterm season, after all, and everyone is kind of in the same boat when it comes to having lots of work to do. I’ll be sure to make some time for fun in there, too. Whether…
Day in the Life #7
It’s been a long time since I did a day in the life post, but I’d like to get back in the habit of it. I’m a nosy person, so I always enjoy seeing what others are up to, and I also like being able to look back at what past-me was doing. I think I’ll do a few…
