Thoughts Of A High School Senior Vs. A College Senior

Any soon-to-be college senior will agree, entering the final stage of "the best four years of your life" is pretty dang intimidating. In high school, being a senior meant you ruled the school; every student looked forward to the day that their reign as a senior finally began. In college, it's a different story. Ever since we've been college freshmen, we remember looking at the current seniors and pitying them for the little time they had left in this glorious bubble of life. Well, unfortunately, our time has finally come. So this goes out to my fellow incoming college seniors: good luck to us all.

HS Senior: Finally, we're the kings of the school! Bow down measly freshman!

Marching Through March

Some appreciation for the month of March.

I love the entire year. Well, for the most part. I'm not a big fan of Winter, but even then, every month has something that's pretty great. November? Thanksgiving. December? Winter Holidays. January? New Year's. February? Valentine's and Single Awareness Day. May? Existential dread during finals. But for me, March has always been my favorite month of the year, and for good reason.

Dear Los Angeles...With Love,

After packing two oversized suitcases and two carryons with all the boho chic clothes I thought I needed to travel across the country for my dream internship, I quickly realized that although I may look like I belong out in the entertainment capital of the world there was a lot more to it than Free People dresses and fanny packs.

Dear Los Angeles...With Love,
September: Los Angeles

Ever since I was younger I dreamed of moving out to California. There was something so amusing about being in the hub of it all that bursts with passion and artistry wherever you look. After a trip to LA when I was a sophomore in high school for dance, I fell even more in love with this utopia of a city and from that moment on, Los Angeles was that light at the end of the tunnel.
