I will no longer apologize.

It has been a while, but since you have last heard from me, I have moved into an apartment, visited home once, recruited an amazing pledge class, had my first assignments due and have dealt with a constant cold-like sickness. It has been quite the month. In my absence I realized I apologize too much....

Final Reflection

As I sat in class in early January 2018, I thought this day would never arrive. I was terrified of the requirements of the course and can honestly say I had no clue how to conduct a situational analysis, had only limited experience designing, distributing and analyzing data, and had no idea how to build...

March Reflection

I cannot believe there is only one month left until presentations are to be given. It seems only yesterday that I was nearly pulling my hair out due to stressing over how to start this monster of an undertaking. Two months later, I am so excited to have just finished analyzing our data and begin...

February Reflection – Research Process

Research is a vital part of every campaign. I approached this semester with an excited air, as I thought that having done research with Florida Prepaid last semester would make this semester much easier. To an extent, it made the preparation of the background knowledge simpler, but the research is proving to be much harder....

Client Meeting Reflection

Today I had the privilege of taking part in my first professional client meeting. I am thrilled to be fulfilling the position of account manager of a team of talented ladies. A few critical things I have learned so far include, but are not limited to: 1. It is important to take notes during a...

American Horror Story: Cover Letters

Writing a cover letter is the most difficult assignment I have ever received. As someone who was raised to always choose humility, a one-page bragfest is nearly impossible for me, even if my attributes perfectly align with the job or internship to which I am sumitting the letter. Whilst writing one last night, I thought...

A Birthday Makeover

Dear Friend, Two years ago today, this journey began as a passion project. I had so much love for the entertainment industry and I simply HAD to find an outlet to express such a love. I began this blog as an entertainment journalism blog, as that is what I was sure I wanted to pursue...

Who needs a boost?

I know I do. To say that the past semester/six months of my life have been an absolute test would be the grossest understatement of all time. While there were some definite highlights (looking at you, PR program and All-Night Yahtzee), the majority of it was unbelievably difficult. I lost a grandparent, my classes were...

I want to talk Chess.

Chess? Those of you who have seen the show might have recognized these lyrics from the musical Chess. Though a concept album was released in 1984, Chess first played for London audiences in 1986. It eventually came to Broadway in 1988, but unfortunately ran in New York City for only two years. As one might deduce from its...

An inspired playlist.

First of all, I love my Yahtzee family. Boston was the time of my life. I'm still recovering. Let's do it all again next year. Greetings all. Checking in to say that this semester has gotten the best of me and I'm fifty shades of exhausted. I had a particularly draining weekend--physically, mentally, and emotionally....

One of My Best-Kept Secrets.

I am and always have been a private person when it comes to my favorite media content. I seldom share my favorite things because it seems telling others somehow makes them less mine. This is ridiculous, though, as I do not own this content and beyond that, it is my favorite for a reason: it...
