#RealDeal: Relationships are more than just a status or a plus one
I sat up in bed yesterday morning for two hours before my alarm was set to go off. Instead of trying to count sheep, or will myself back into a slumber - I grabbed my headphones and put on my favorite playlist (which is a collection of love songs).
I smiled looking over at my still sleeping boyfriend as Spotify shuffle had selected "our song." (Which is actually too personal to post.) I then closed my eyes still trying to go to sleep.
#NerdsUnite: Tips to discover if the guy has an existing relationship
It is necessary for every girl to find out if the boy that she is trying to date has an existing relationship or not. This is very much essential so that she can have a wonderful and romantic life. Being a woman, no girl would like to portray herself as chasing the man, instead of the opposite. Hence, asking directly this question to the guy would be a wrong way to portray oneself.
#ThatAwkwardMomentWhen: You become a fish out of water
Without too much of a backstory (as I tend to ramble) … earlier this year, I went on a dating detox that actually lead me (at first reluctantly) into a pretty specfuckingtacular relationship. He's not only my best friend … he is like a sensei. Outside of my parents who taught me my ABC's and basic morals, I've never learned so much from a single person.
#TrueStory: My Conversation With A Spider
After getting out of the shower this morning, I saw a small-ish creepy brown spider trying to get out of the sink. Instinct kicked in and I turned on the water and started rinsing him down. He fought it hard, and my empathy kicked in. “You’re right, that was rude, I’m sorry.” I literally said that out loud as I turned off the water.
#RealDeal: Burdens of a Bouncer
I haven't been a bouncer for long. Lord knows I have far less stories to tell than the average seen it all bouncer at any bar. I can only say that being a bouncer puts you in another world. A world where you are what stands between the drinker and the drink they want.
#NerdsUnite: An ode to my 28th year
As I stare down the barrel of my 29th birthday, my personal growth over the last year is coming into focus. And for the first time in maybe my entire adult life, I’m happy with me.
28 started the way any good birthday should - in a drunken haze with my best friends. But this one was different. I was circling the drain on several friendships - longterm, beautiful, happy friendships that I valued. But still, they were failing.
#ThatAwkwardMomentWhen: A Fetish Goes Horribly Wrong
There are nights in college that you will never want to forget. Nights that help you achieve a god-like status among your peers. This is not one of those nights ...
It all began when I had the great idea to set up a party with a sorority while I was bored in Art lecture. It was a Friday, the weather was halfway decent, what could go wrong?
Apparently everything.
#ShitGotReal: Well, this good news was certainly unexpected ...
I don't even know how to write this. A part of me is so deliriously excited, but another is just calm and extremely grateful for even just this present moment.
My life has changed a lot this year. It was rather unexpected, but these last few months in particular have been some of the best of my life.
#RealDeal: The worst thing I've ever said to a woman
(Parents- Mother in particular. Please don't read this)
I was recently asked about a failure I had and why I don't write about those. Honestly, it never occurred to me. Here goes modesty, and here goes my ego ...

#NerdsUnite: Pussycat ball turns hairy
I consider myself to be a fairly open minded person despite my upbringing. I had what I would call a “conveyor belt childhood” where I grew up in an average sized town, in an average sized house, with average adolescent experiences. I graduated high school with average grades and attended an average 4 year university afterwards.
