Costa Rica!!!

Spring Break is literally around the corner and I need it like melons need water. . .

Costa Rica!!!

After just over two months of what was arguably the worst time of my life, spring break is coming to save me. Honestly, university has become such a stress! I can't go a day without worrying about an upcoming assignment, due date, midterm, or job shift. Am I doing too much? Probably, but I can forget about it all in a week!

If it wasn't already obvious, Costa Rica, here I come! I am seriously so excited to travel to this new destination. It was never on any bucket list but that doesn't mean I am not entirely stoked to go. Get out of this crappy Los Angeles rain that has plagued us for months now. Ugh! I feel like I complain about the rain here so much despite being from Ohio. It's probably because I came here to ESCAPE the crappy weather. Alas, my efforts have failed me.

Luckily, the forecast for Costa Rica appears to be clean, clear, and sunny! Everything I need for a week of relaxation. I have a bunch of cool things planned to do with my family like rain forest hikes, waterfall visits, zip lining through the tree tops (oh yeah), and just beaches, beautiful beaches. This post feels more like a blog post or the script to a young Youtube vlog video, but I felt a change of pace was necessary. This will also be short, but expect a HUGE review post after I come back (maybe with a little update in the middle).

Point is, I'm happy I have this opportunity to spend some time with my family in a beautiful and luscious foreign country that isn't too far from home. I'm not entirely a fan of really long plane rides, or at least my behind isn't a fan (stiff seats). I can't wait to come back with plenty of fun memories and exciting experiences to talk about with my friends back in what I hope to be a nicer L.A. We'll see. Well, cheers to the first half of Spring semester being over and good luck to all traveling for their breaks!

Love Lost

Being the girl that is falling for the boy is never easy.

You constantly text my phone telling me that you want to see me and hang out, even though we may not have sex we cuddle and that’s intimacy in its own. I’m tired of buying you food and being there for you like a girlfriend when you consistently tell me you aren't ready for a girlfriend. I am constantly feeling I’m getting slapped in the face because I’m doing all these things and getting nothing in return. Every day I feel myself liking you more which is just crazy because why would I even waste my time liking someone there isn’t a future with. I just want you to be honest with me and with yourself, tell me how you feel from your heart, stop just saying you aren’t ready. You are wasting time telling me you aren’t ready because while you are “getting ready” some guy somewhere else is telling me that he likes me and thinks I’m beautiful and wants to date me. I’m not asking for much, but I at least want exclusivity because you ask me for all these things but in return you give me nothing.

Pretty Little Liars

From reading the books in eighth grade to watching the television show all throughout high school, "Pretty Little Liars"basically defined my teenage existence. I was completely and totally obsessed on all accounts. However, even though I loved the fact that the books and the show are starkly different, there are simply just some ways in which the books are much better. Let's take a look:

I just want you to know you are loved. You are loved so very much.

To The Girl In The Back Row

Recently I was blessed to be a counselor at a wonderful camp, secluded in a cornfield somewhere in Virginia. I consider myself to be a seasoned camp counselor, as I have not only been a camper for most of my life but have been privileged enough to work multiple camps with all kinds of different facilities. I have worked camps with multi-thousand dollar facilities, with zip lines, rock walls, ropes courses, and boats. I have worked at camps with amazing water sports, camps with paintball, camps with canoes and paddle boats and floating blobs or trampolines in the middle of the water. I have worked at camps with in ground pools and camps without any pools, and even some camps with go-karts. I've had problem kids, kids who refuse to listen to anything I say, kids who sneak out after lights out to meet a significant other, and kids who are every camp counselors dream.

Why The United Nations Is Key For The World

The United Nations (UN) has been in existence since June of 1945. Since then, the world has come together to work on and solve some of the harshest problems that face the Human Race. Be it children in societal ills like Human Trafficking, natural issues like Deforestation, or issues of extreme poverty, the UN has worked together in an attempt to make it a better place for us all. It's the only organization in the history of the world to bring people together in a willing, peaceful way; a feat that not even the League of Nations could do in the Post- WWI era. Why was it that one organization failed, and the other one is still going strong, 72 years later?
