After a long grueling semester, I am finally done with my sophomore year of college. I took several interesting classes and several that were not so interesting. I want to talk about the strategies I have found that help me learn best,, and hopefully this will help someone in a

I will just go ahead and get the usual speech out of the way: long time no write, I’ve been busy and kinda forgot I had a blog for a bit, yada yada. Either way, I am here now, and that’s all that matters! I have gotten mostly
Intro If you saw my Instagram post yesterday, disregard this first bit. I have fallen behind in posting for the past month because I got incredibly busy with finals and tennis. Either way, I'm back now (until I get busy again, which is very likely). Today I wanted
Introduction As you can probably tell, I am a big fan of mechanical pencils. Until February, I’d had the same three fountain pens sitting in my desk for several years. I would get them out on occasion, but I never really saw the utility, or more so the majesty,
