New year, better me

Here we are at the second day of 2019. Feel any different yet? I haven't been someone who has considered the new year a monumental moment- of course I grab my glass of champagne as the clock strikes 12 every year *insert cheers boomerang here* - but I don't view the calendar flip as a …

The power of a clear mind

Who knew that having more brain power could lead to greater levels of productivity? Sounds like a pretty foreign concept to me... But in all seriousness, I know that this may seem obvious.

Did that really just happen?

What makes me human you ask? In Kindergarten what is possibly better than time spent on the playground? Those few moments between school ending and parents coming to pick us up were the best times of the entire day; done with learning but not quite ready to part from all of our friends. Monkey bars, …
