When I started graduate school I put on unwanted weight for the first time in my life. I didn't own a scale and I lived in an apartment with no full length mirror. As such, I didn't even realize the weight was there until the fateful day I went swim suit shopping. This is the... Continue Reading →
How much fun can you have seeing how the unimaginably rich live? The answer: A LOT. I read Kevin Kwan's Crazy Rich Asians more than a year ago and adored it.

I received the cutest calendar for Christmas that tells me something I can celebrate everyday of the year. Yesterday was Women Rock and so I attended a showing of Georgia O'Keefe's paintings, photography, and fashion. Today is National Trivia Day! My Dad got me hooked on trivia as a kid and I love it.
