Okay. So I think it’s time me and the women of the world…at least the literary world had a talk. A real one. Like apart from the dialogues they have with themselves in these 600-pages boo...
Ah! I’m finally back from my Costa Rican vacation, which I decided not to blast out on my social media outlets/on this website on account of the deep fear that my incessant Criminal Minds watch...
Take it from a girl who has a track record for managing to get herself deeply involved with men bound to circumstances that keep them everywhere but here, there’s not much about a long-distance...
Is it really so much to ask that I find a future job listing that includes but is not limited to the following description: Having the rap from Spice Girls’ “Wannabe” memorized, inc...
As the depressing life of being a recent college graduate begins to sink in and infiltrate my own life, I’m beginning to realize that my dreams are just going to have to take a detour for a whi...
There really are few painfully ironic things as being a senior journalism major an essay away from graduating and having to make an appointment at the university’s Undergraduate Writing Center....
This Just In: I’m about the coin a new term that a few months from now you’ll all be using casually, on Twitter and other blogs and such, and I’m writing this first paragraph to sta...
On Sunday nights, after my meetings for The Daily Texan, I like to play a really fun game to kick my week off. It’s called “How Many Lean Cuisines Will I Eat Tonight?” Tonight’...
The obsession with late-night FIFA. Shower beers. Really just anything you do in the shower that isn’t bathing yourself. How socks just pop up everywhere in every space of the house constantly....
Seriously, in Austin a Guy With Dog is almost inevitable, they are more than a dime a dozen, there are more Guys With Dog than there are Austin girls with hipster high-waisted Levi’s cutoffs...
This just in, in case you haven’t already noticed, I’m basically like a leaky faucet but instead of water droplets, it’s just a constant drip of embarrassing information about mysel...
No longer too old to know better and too young to care, I know that I’m not all somebody could ever dream of in a person. Clearly. I mean, I time things based on how many episodes of Friends I ...
Brace yourself, I’m about to get all philosophical on yo’ ass. I think we all say that we want honesty in the person we date and then we wonder how is that even after swearing to ourselve...
I’m the kind of girl whose headphones get lost in her hair. The one who stubs her toe on the same corner of her apartment weekly and each time screams out completely unwarranted obscenities tha...
You know that miserable moment when you realize that you’re going to have to get through something you never thought would happen? How is that we can all live our lives as if each day was last,...
As I sit in a hipster coffee shop that is practically offended by the fact that you’d even actually want to order coffee—so offended in fact that the baristas ask you what you want and then abr...
Like that stupid piece of hair that always falls in my face, there you are exactly where I need you, everywhere. Like you, like that piece of hair, I push you away knowing good and well that I keep y...
Thank GOD(and/or the directors of SXSW) above, SXSW is finally over! While every other student was amped on “SPRING BREAKKKK 2K12!!!” I was schlepping my apparently outdated laptop throug...
Dramatic title? Yes. Necessary? Probably not. Sorry if you’ve been wondering where I’ve been lately. I’ll have you know I’ve been nowhere fabulous! I’ve been glued to my...
Wait, are you trying to tell me that you don’t imagine Bob Saget narrating everything you do? Oh. So that, that’s, uh, just me then, huh? I mean never mind that he’s mocking me half...
I think it’s time we had a serious talk about something that’s been spreading around this campus at an alarming rate. (And no, it’s not sexually transmitted. Gross.) One of my favor...
Do you ever have one of those moments where you’re in this long line at the counter of a restaurant and you’re thinking about all of things you’re craving for lunch that day, and th...
I think there’s something about love that doesn’t want to be defined because then less of us would be able to say we have it. If we spend our lives running around, meeting the guys we thi...
Lately I’ve been developing a rather groundbreaking concept, if I do say so myself, and I think there could potentially be a lot of money in it: Dating Rehab. Apprehensive? Allow me to indulge ...
Here’s my biggest pet peeve—above carpenter jeans and worse than people who overuse the word “whatnot” though I refuse to call it a word—girls who say this: “I mean, I just wa...
In other news, if you haven’t been reading my column for The Daily Texan, the University of Texas’ newspaper, then you should check it out in case you get bored, or you know, actually wan...
It’s sad when you catch yourself watching season one of the Real Housewives of Orange County…and then think to yourself, “Ah, yes, the good ‘ole days…” photo from ...
Last night, I was out at an unreasonably hip restaurant with some friends where we sat at the bar while we waited for our table, which I think we were all praying would not be adjacent to the DJ who ...
It’s hard to imagine that after writing all day for my various writing commitments, as a senior staff writer for The Daily Texan, an editorial intern at Austin Monthly, a contributor to College...
