A couple of weeks ago, I posted a fun survey about a bunch of random things. Today, I’m making one about dessert. Why? Because it’s National Dessert Day. Because it’s the middle of a long week. Because I ❤️ dessert. Ready? Okay! Apple pie or pumpkin pie? I hope you know I love pumpkin (and pumpkin-spice products)….
6 Ways to Have a Wonderful (Mon)Day
Hey there! How was your weekend? Mine was great and relaxing, but I’m honestly (a little) glad it’s Monday. What? Yeah, I’m one of the crazy people who thrives on a schedule, so weekends throw me off a little. Also, I look at every Monday as a fresh start, which I think we can all use….

Hello hello hello! Happy Friday! How was your week? Mine was fast. Which is both good and bad. Good because, hey, it’s already the weekend. That’s almost like a break! Bad because it went so fast that I feel like I’m somehow behind schedule, even though I’m not. Anyway, I’m babbling a little. I say it’s time to…
Be Nice to Yourself
Last week was honestly a really good first week of school. Really. Last year, I started college and had to spend a lot of time trying to convince myself that I was loving it. Tip: If you have to explain to yourself that you love something, you probably don’t actually love it. Still, I’ve spent an inordinate amount of time…
Apples & Econ
Hey there! Happy Monday! Did you have a good weekend? I… think I did. Basically, I took most of Saturday afternoon and evening off of work and otherwise spent my time on an econ problem set. Like, 16 hours of a problem set. Let’s forget about that, though, and talk about some of the fun stuff….

Happy Friday! Did you have a good week? Are you ready for the weekend? I’m looking at homework, blog work, errands, apple-picking, and hopefully some baking. Maybe all that’s a little ambitious, but we shall see. Anyway, let’s kick off the weekend on a positive note by looking back at some of our favorite little things from…
Thinking Out Loud #30
Hey there! Happy Thinking Out Loud Thursday! My first week of classes has been a good one - not too busy and not too boring. But as the week ends, everything gets a little bit busier, so I’m going to dive right in to some random first-week-of-school thoughts. Thanks for the link-up, Amanda! 1.) I…
This or That
Today is the second day of school, so by tomorrow I will have had all my classes and can speak (write?) more knowledgeably about my schedule and what I’m doing with my life. Well, with my academic life, that is. For this one quarter. I’ll work on figuring out the rest later. Anyway, I thought I’d post…
Summer Stopped
Happy Monday! Today is the first day of classes for me, so I’ll be sure to update you on what I’m up to. First, I want to talk about how nice the past week has been. Sure, it’s been pretty busy and I haven’t had all that much sleep, but I really enjoyed the opportunity to settle…
Five Friday Favorites 09/25/15
Happy Friday! Have you had a good week? I’m quite tired, but I definitely enjoyed this week. Last year, O-Week totally stressed me out because I was so anxious to start classes, but I was a bit more relaxed this week. I’ve even started to fall into a little bit of a routine. That said, I’m hoping…
