Post Grad

I graduated from high school on May 21 and I feel no different. Some part of me feels like in the fall I will see all my friends again walking the halls that we didn't really act like we owned even if we were the "big dogs on campus". Highschool was always interesting to say the least; other peoples drama, friends parting, and relationships. Being involved with the arts in school made it that much harder to part with but surprisingly I didn't find myself in tears as I walked across that stage & saw the friends I was leaving behind with the impressions we made upon eachother but smiling and happy. Now I'm still not sad but I am going to miss everyone as we move on to bigger and better things. Good thing there is always facebook:)
peace, love, & flowers

College Series: After Acceptance

Once Accepted into college/ university or trade school there will be a flood of paperwork coming at you. A lot of it will probably be online while other stuff will come in the mail. Do not let it overwhelm you, just stay organized and take things as they come. I suggest a binder with dividers or an expandable wallet, letter (these are water proof and already have gaussets for separation). You can get them at staples or wal mart. Keep records of everything just in case! When you submit something print out the summary pages and the proof of submission pages, you can never be too prepared in college. Print off contracts and invoices from payments. Once I started school I even put school reciepts (like book purchases, returns) in the college binder so if there was any discrepencies I had prove. File all of this stuff. You can organize it however you want. I did it by finances (financial aid, bills, reciepts), housing (contracts, requests, assignments), and acad...

Roommate Series: Going Green

One of my roommates is pretty "go green", save the earth, eco-friendly and so I started recalling some of the many videos I have seen about clever uses for things or life hacks reusable items. Even without a market where you can bring your own containers, fill them, and pay by weight (bulk bin places) you can still make a few changes. There are other changes that can be made like those reusable menstrual cups for women to reduce waste from tampons or pads but in my opinion, that's not as easy of a change to make. Here are some of the easier ones I've found that require a little effort but will save particularly on plastic, some can even save you money in the long run. Another perk with making your own is that the chemicals used are what you put in them so you can make them more natural if that's also a goal for you. If you are more of a visual person there are links to videos at the bottom. There are so many videos out there but here are a few that I reference. ...

College Series: Partying

       I wasn't a huge social butterfly in college. My roommate and I pretty well stuck together. We had movie nights and scraped together enough change to buy a pizza. We did have a friend that was more into the party scene and in turn that took us to a few. From those experiences comes these words of wisdom. Have a plan before you go out. If there is going to be alcohol and there most likely will be decide who all is going to drink and who is going to stay the sober "mom friend" (if you don't trust your friends enough, be the mom friend). Their job is to keep the intoxicated friends safe and from doing anything they will regret. Decide who is going to be DD (designated driver), which can be but is not necessarily the mom friend, or how else you're getting there and back. Have an idea of how long you want to stay. Have meeting places and times if you are going to separate. Don't assume that you'll figure it out later while you're out and about. Kno...
