I just got back from a 10-day trip to Europe, which included Paris and Vienna. Whenever I travel, I try to keep my bags to a minimum because I hate carrying luggage! I will avoid a carry-on at all costs because I don’t like lugging it through the airport or raising it above my…
Fighting in Marriage Before I got married, I was a little fearful of what was to come. I don’t know why, but I thought that when you get married, you start to fight over everything! Maybe it’s because of the media, I’m not sure. I just thought that when you get married, you suddenly become…

The Desert of Unemployment Lately, I have been struggling with this season in the desert of unemployment. Yes, everyday of unemployment is a struggle. I am sure many of you understand that.

Don’t mind the hair and raincoat…it was a rainy and windy day in Massachusetts! This is the Romantic Blouse from Zara. I am normally…

Hello Friends, I figure, since this is supposed to be part fashion blog, I should probably start to post something on fashion. This is one of my new favorite t-shirts from Topshop. It’s kind of short/cropped, but goes perfectly with high-waisted black jeans. Generally, I don’t like t-shirts because I think they are too casual,…
The Calm Before the Storm I have to admit, I’m not always the most prepared person when it comes to natural disasters. It’s hard to prepare for a disaster when everything outside looks calm. So, I asked several of my friends if they had ever been without water or electricity. Several of them said, “Yes!…
