Yes, I have scars. I bruise like a peach. I can't walk in heels to save my life but I wouldn't want to be anyone else other than myself.

As a Woman, I feel like we are expected to be perfectly poised beauties. However, that is not always the case for us natural clutzy girls. We might try to act like we have it all together, but the reality is we can trip over any flat surface in the blink of an eye. Here are some facts all clutzy girls know to be true

1. Cooking is a full blown safety hazard

If anything can accurately describe a clutz in the kitchen it has to be this gif. If you give me a knife there is a 50/50 chance that they will nick/cut myself. I don't know why, it just happens. I've even cut myself with a butter knife before.

2. Walking becomes an Olympic Sport

Especially in heels. Being that high just takes you off guard. It's just not natural! Give a clutz flats and I bet she is still going to find a way to fall. I guess we can hang up our Victoria Secret wings because we won't be an angel anytime soon.


3. If there is a corner, your hip will find it

It's like the hip just knows when you pass by a table and is like, "Hey I need to hit this" and when you do you feel the burn of a thousand suns. You might feel like you've just been shot but cry it out girl. It get's better.


4. This also applies for your head

If there is something to whack your head on, it will find it.The worst feeling in the world is hitting your head on a desk. Which in school happens a lot. Ouch, dude.



5. You lose all ability to properly hold anything

When you drop it sometimes you just stand there and look at the floor followed by an audible, "awwwww." Sometimes you pick it up, other times you wish you just had duct tape so you could actually hold something in your hand for once.


6. You go through phone cases like crazy

A girl's worst fear is cracking her phone. Load up on cases and buy a good quality one. Otherwise, you will be spending most of that hard earned cash on another phone case.

7. The Most Heard Question, "Where did that bruise come from?"

I just woke up like this. It's almost like some sort of voodoo magic. I go to bed fine and I wake up with twenty bruises.



8. Followed by, "How did you get/ Where did that that scar come from?"

Honestly, I have lost track of my scars. Majority of them are literally from the silliest things. Instead of racking my brain for an awesome story I mostly just sigh and give my best Trump shrug. I just don't know anymore.



But Don't Forget ...

Learn to laugh at yourself

Yes, laughing is totally something learned. I can't tell you how many times I have fell walking to class and I just lay on the ground and laugh until I am in tears. It's easier to laugh with other people than to have them laughing at you.

It's OK to not be perfect

Everyone loves you with all of your "flaws". You might not be the best cook, and you might set off the smoke alarm, but it's okay to not be the best at everything!

You might be a mess, but you're one beautiful mess!

Yes, I have scars. I bruise like a peach. I can't walk in heels to save my life. However, I wouldn't want to be anyone else other than myself.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.

Christmas is literally so close. We can almost taste it. But there is just one thing standing between you and the big day: FINALS. It's not the studying, lack of sleep, last minute cram sessions or crappy food intake that is the worst... but the fact that you cannot focus because, well, CHRISTMAS. How do professors expect you to focus when Christmas is soooo soon. For all my fellow Christmas lovers out there, I feel your pain.
