I’m officially done with grad school! It’s been two weeks since I graduated. Second semester was much harder and way more stressful. My health had some major dips and finishing my master’s project was anxiety-inducing. But I also got to go to Ireland (mostly for free!) and it was an absolute delight! I’m so excited … Continue reading second semester of grad school reflection

A Helpful Guide to Decision Making
One of my least favorite things in the world is decision making. It’s the reason I hate driving. It’s the reason I can’t have too many options.
