Hello there. It’s me again. I know you all thought I dropped off the face of the earth. Well, I hate to disappoint, but…I didn’t. Here I am! Anyway, I’ve been pondering relationships lately. And recently, as I was standing in my shower reflecting on the mysteries of life and love and the universe, I [...]

Donna requested, about two months ago, that I write about new beginnings. So that’s exactly what I’m going to do. Let it never be said that the mPower bloggers never did anything for the people! Change is an interesting thing. It can be exciting. It can be scary. It can be welcomed. It can be [...]

Oh, Charlie Sheen hype. It has been a constant source of entertainment and ridiculousness for my little brother and me over the past few months. Like, honestly, I don’t think I’ve gone a day without saying “win” or “winning” in a very long time. (So I’m a nerd. Whatever. Lol) But seriously, dude, I love [...]

I was talking recently with someone very, very dear to me. I forget exactly what we were discussing, but he said to me, rather unprovokedly, “You’re one of the most amazing women I’ve ever met.” And I sat there completely dumbfounded. I expressed my shock, and asked him why on earth I fit into that [...]

…the boyfriend! (Note: if you can tell me where that song comes from, you will go down in my Book of Awesome People until the end of time. Family members don’t count because a) you’re already in the Book and b) that’s kind of cheating because…well, it just is. Just sayin’.) See, I’ve been pondering [...]

I had a brand new experience lately. Early one evening, I started feeling this funny bloated feeling in my abdomen. It didn’t go away. It became more and more painful. So I did what any logical person would do when experiencing a medical problem: I called my mother. I described my symptoms, and she told [...]

I was looking over the cafeteria menu at school recently, and at the top of each day were the words, “Today’s Special!” (complete with exclamation point, which made me very happy, because I love exclamation points), indicating what the extra-snazzy offering of that particular day would be. Now, what they meant was, “the special of [...]

I had a morning recently where I completely acted like a 12-year-old. I had gone to a party the night before, where I sat and watched television and my friend played with my hair. The next morning, I slept in, ate Kix cereal (my favorite) for breakfast, and did not go to class. I wore [...]

So there was this event at school recently where all the students on campus and all the faculty and staff were invited. At this event, we get all dressed up and go to this fancy venue, and they serve really nice dinner and there’s live entertainment and dancing and everything. There was no part of [...]

Dear Everyone, I have not posted an entry in a RIDICULOUSLY long time. Sorry. Like, I’ve gone awhile without posting before, but I think this is a new record. And the dwelling upon my blog-related unreliability–because there has been much self guilt-tripping before this, trust me–stops…now.  See, my mom has always had this “rule,” which [...]
