Nugget 'O Wisdom

Pondering

This a.m. I woke up pondering the idea of what to do after college. After talking with my German professor yesterday after class, I've decided to look into the possibility of teaching English...

...in Germany.

The Lucky Ones

At 5:43, my waking thought:

The right thing at the wrong time is still the wrong thing.

Oh, but they're the lucky ones. At least it was right in some respect.

A First Time For Everything

I'm home. And home means a ton of food, bizarre (hilarious) conversations at the dinner table, and opportunities for domestication.


I stuffed a turkey today.


Merry Christmas!

Starting Somewhere




I totally believe in second chances. There's just something rewarding about fixing things up and breathing new life into them. Even in the midst of a quarter-life crisis, this silly notion remains in the back of my head that someday (when I'm out of college) I'll start my own business selling modern, one-of-a-kind pieces of reupholstered furniture.

(I guess the first step would be learning how to reupholster furniture.....hmmm).

Well! You know what they say: "Ya gotta start somewhere."

Here's my first humble attempt at a leather office chair my roommate found by the dumpster the other night. One small step at a time.
