MARCH THE VOTE!
It's unfortunate that as a society it has taken us this long to realize that what we do today impacts our earth in serious ways and all of those who will be living in it in the future.  I know that I don't want my children to live in a world with little trees and clean air to breathe. Gl...

How do you measure a year?-Part 2
In inches: Sometimes you gotta give a little. I've learned that when I'm in a fight or disagreement with a friend, sometimes it's impossible to get both people on the same page. Sometimes you have to give in a little in order to keep the peace. Friendship is important enough that each perso...

Terrapin Leadership Institute!
When I first started at the University, I somehow found out about the Terrapin Leadership Institute (TLI). I'm not quite sure why I decided to sign up for it, but I did.

I admit it
I admit it...I judge people...everyone, whether they're my best friend or a random person walking down the hall.
