Why it Sucks Being a Millenial
Hi yes, hello it’s me, another 25-year-old bitching about their privileged life with a macbook and an iphone 6s next to me. I don’t earn a living wage, and I live in income-based housing, the sweater I am wearing has a hole in it and I haven’t had a real…

Tough Decisions in Pursuing a Dream
I recently made the hard choice to leave a job that I had bled into for four years. The decision was a sudden one, but one that I needed to pursue, even if it meant that I wouldn’t have my same comfort level. I don’t write this to bash anyone,…
