    What’s in My School Bag

    October 8, 2018

    With the beginning of school comes the school commute! After three years of being in the same apartment (pretty far from campus), I have finally perfected my school bag.

I added a Madewell sash to the strap to give it a refresh for the new school year. The bag is exactly the right size for my laptop, which then…

    How Defining Ideal You Can Make Her a Reality

    September 20, 2018

    Happy almost fall my quarter system sunshines! With only a few days before school starts, it’s time to get those brand spanking new planners out and think about what you want to accomplish in the coming year! We’ve spoken a lot about how to set goals, but today I want to share a little more about that first step of the process: visualizing your future! This summer, I started a meditation practice and often the guided meditations I listen to talk about manifesting your destiny. I’m not sold on the idea of manifestation, but I do believe in the importance of clarifying your long-term goals and finding ways to keep…
