If you're somehow involved with the field of education -- students, teachers, parents -- you know the pandemic has posed challenges we never thought we'd encounter. Students, especially younger learners, are prematurely left to manage their own schedules during the week. All teachers are in year one again in many ways, desperately trying to adapt … Continue reading Teaching in a Pandemic

Then
This is long overdue. My blog is not active. I'm not on social media to promote myself. Maybe it doesn't matter. It's a rainy evening after the first day of (virtual) school, and I'm listening to Piano in the Background.

22 Things Your Senior Year of College Teaches You
You don’t have it all figured out, even if it feels like you do. But God does. Your natural hair actually looks decent (or does it?) after X amount of days of ditching the blow-dryer, wand, and straightener, and you wish you could go back and tell your high school self not to waste the … Continue reading 22 Things Your Senior Year of College Teaches You
God’s Will and My Choices: A Relationship

I’ve only hit my goal of going to the gym 4 times a week 3 out of 10 weeks so … Continue reading God’s Will and My Choices: A Relationship
