Kermit Says: Check In
I’ve recently been obsessing over the British pop band One Direction. I just can’t stop listening to their music! Now don’t get me wrong, I haven’t been living under a rock. I’ve known about 1D for some time now, but if I’m being completely honest, I previously only paid attention to their looks (mmm…Zayn), and since… Continue reading Kermit Says: Check In
Kermit Says: Refuel Your (Metaphorical) Tank

Born in Georgia in the 1920s, a courageous woman named Rosalind moved to Chicago in hopes… Continue reading Kermit Says: Think Pink and Fight!
Kermit Says: Find the Good in Goodbye
“My boyfriend cheated on me.” “My girlfriend is embarrassed to be seen with me.” “He said he’d hook up with her when he’s done with me.” “He got really angry.” “But I still love her.” In 72 hours, at least five students have shared less than stellar truths about their relationships. And while their overall… Continue reading Kermit Says: Find the Good in Goodbye

Kermit Says: Nobody’s Perfect…And That’s Okay (Trigger Warning)
Growing up, I often felt as though my knees were buckling under immense amounts of pressure. I’m not saying I didn’t have an amazing life filled with some pretty amazing people, but there were times when the need to be perfect outweighed everything.
