Watching the Golden Globes right now. Ah, Meryl Streep I adore you. Who else can play Margaret Thatcher and Julia Child. No one, I tell you. I am still attempting to find the great in every day on my...
The time has come to shut the doors on The Bobby Pin. There’s been a lot of change this year, and I want a fresh start. If you’ve followed me in my journey, I think you — for reals,...
I served my last shift for the San Diego Sexual Assault team this week. I could have technically done one more month, but with work plus school schedule, I decided to stop a month early. It’s b...
I write this post every year. It is fun to look back. This year was an interesting one. It’s kind of insane to think that when the year started, I didn’t think I would finish grad school ...
I went through grad school with a pink laptop. But it’s the storyline we tell little girls — that they need to be saved, versus little boys who are told that they can save the world. It s...
This was my DIY card after we opened presents this morning. I hope you made wonderful memories today. I think the best gift was a copy of my gransdfather’s journal from WWII. One of the first e...
I’M DONE! I’M DONE! It doesn’t feel real, but I am done with school. This is the problem with finishing early and moving. I did the same in my undergrad — I moved out and left...
We are in Utah. We are almost unpacked. The puppy and Cricket are in a power struggle for Alpha dog that is slightly hilarious. But now, a story. Friday night was the designated timeslot for the annu...
It’s a calm before a storm. My homework is all but complete, just a presentation and paper and I will be graduated. The apartment that we de-wallpapered, painted and lived in for three years is...
How is it already the weekend? I don’t know how this happens? How are we leaving San Diego in 10 days? I was driving up College Avenue on Thursday after presenting in class (we rocked it!) and ...
One of the best parts about the holiday season is family and tradition. But a close second is dressing up for the parties and events. My friend Beka asked me what some good looks would be for a dress...
The thankful list that didn’t get posted because my family came into town. And then we almost got ran over by crazy shoppers at the San Ysidro outlets at midnight, which was more about laughing...
Can you believe this guy had never been to Disneyland until last week? This was something we had to fix before we moved. The time between Halloween and Christmas proved to be the perfect time. Our lo...
You may have already seen this video — 600,000 people have and it was posted in May. But it was a great reminder via my friend Brooke that these issues with equality that I have are not “...
I spied this bag over the weekend, and now it is all I can think of. It’s a sign of true love I tell you. Only, the problem is that the bag is $475. It would definitely cross into my threshold ...
I have decided that I need a window nook in our next place. I’m drawn to the idea of reading something that isn’t a textbook in a pretty spot. The only time I really like snow is if IR...
We made our annual trip to Julian last Saturday. It was rainy and a little bit bittersweet because we knew it would be our last trip to the town. It’s really our only tradition — we’...
Did you wish for anything at 11:11 on 11/11/11? I must admit, I closed my eyes and wished for happiness. To find it, to relish it, and to hold onto it. Constant quest. This post kind of became a brai...
When you stop writing for a little you feel like you have to have something amazing to say when you start again. And beyond discovering that I work much better in jeans than in sweatpants, and I rece...
So after my nervous post yesterday, I’m happy to say that I rocked that presentation. I killed it. The venture capitalists offered me the most money and they all believed in my idea. If only it...
I’m presenting in just under two hours at V2, an entrepreneurship event. I presented yesterday. I am presenting tomorrow at Blogworld. (in case the attendees check out my blog during the presen...
This Friday, I’m speaking at Blogworld. Which is worthy of reporting, since this is a blog, and two years ago, I begged for your votes to win a contest to go. Now I’m speaking. How awesom...
I always wanted to know what this one did during the day while we are away. The answer? Sleep. All day long. Sometimes I look at her and get jealous. Her ideal sleeping spot is with the door open, sn...
After hearing his wife rave about them over and over, the husband has joined Instagram and Pinterest. The verdict? He’s in love. He caught the value when he saw images of the latest Aston Marti...
Have you been following Occupy Wall Street? How could you not? There are movements all over the world. I still don’t know what to think… I tend to be driven toward causes and people want...
That this… Would look great in this? And that she’d make one happy panda? Or, even better, a sad panda! The only time I ever want a baby is around Halloween. Babies in costume, does it ge...
For every girl who has suffered through a bland lunch at work, knowing just what ingredient would make the meal better, but being completely unable to access it, these are for you. Let’s all tr...
I already let the cat out of the bag — or the pug out of the bed as we like to say around here, but last week I started as a social media director in Salt Lake City. I’ll work remotely fo...
Hi world! I feel like shouting it a bit from the roof tops. Last week I went to class, then drove straight to Utah, worked, and then left at 6 p.m. on Friday and made it to class at 10 a.m. (with eno...
Light on posts lately because I have been in Utah all week. Working. It’s awesome. I’ll tell you more about it later. I don’t know about you but I think a new job definitely deserve...
