Being honest with yourself is, to me, probably one of the most difficult yet important things one could ever do. When we meet certain people or encounter certain situations, we get a small feeling in the pit of our stomachs. That's called intuition. Sometimes we listen to those instincts and other times we choose… Continue reading Motivational Monday: Trust Your Gut

Kermit Turns The Big Three!
Dear friends, It's hard to believe I started Kermit Says... three years ago. It seems like just yesterday that I was delivering a speech to newly inducted members of the National Junior Beta Club, an academic honor society I was a part of many many moons ago. Besides my elementary Salutatorian and high school Vice-Presidential addresses, I can't recall… Continue reading Kermit Turns The Big Three!
Kermit Says: Listen to These Podcasts While Traveling Abroad
I've been bitten by the travel bug...hard! Every plane ticket purchased and every passport book stamped has made me richer, better, and more inspired. From small, sleepy beach towns in Brazil and quiet quaint villages in Europe to bustling cities like Toronto and New York, I enjoy visiting new places and experiencing life beyond my… Continue reading Kermit Says: Listen to These Podcasts While Traveling Abroad
Wellness Wednesday: Mindful Gardening for a Healthy You
I am not a gardening person. Digging through soil, swatting away insects, and baking in the boiling sun just don't sound too appealing. It seems there's far more that goes into growing and nurturing flowers, plants, and whatever else I'm hoping to grow than I really have the time or patience for. I'd rather just skip… Continue reading Wellness Wednesday: Mindful Gardening for a Healthy You
Tuesday Tunesday: Don’t You Worry ‘Bout a Thing
Happy Tunesday, friends! Last night I finally had the chance to sit down and watch Universal Pictures' animated hit, Sing, and I haven't stopped singing and dancing since. In fact, I felt so many emotions while watching the movie and connecting with most of the characters, that that experience is what has inspired today's post. Among… Continue reading Tuesday Tunesday: Don’t You Worry ‘Bout a Thing
Motivational Monday: Grades Don’t Define You
Happy Monday, friends. If you're a student, you've probably had a few days to rest and relax before grades were publicized. If you're a teacher, you've probably been grading and stressing over submitting grades by the looming deadline (forgive my absence, but I was doing the latter). Now, depending on how well you… Continue reading Motivational Monday: Grades Don’t Define You
Wellness Wednesday: Sleep On It
Happy Wellness Wednesday, friends! We are just six short days away from Spring Break, but there's just one little thing standing in our way: finals. That's right! It's finally finals week, which probably means lots of coffee, studying, and sleepless nights. So often we decide to pull all night study sessions instead of getting a… Continue reading Wellness Wednesday: Sleep On It
Tuesday Tunesday: The Story of Tonight
Tonight's the night I've been waiting for since JUNE, friends! I'm finally seeing Hamilton! As a theater kid who has seen her fair share of theatrical productions, there are no words to describe my excitement and joy. I have listened to the soundtrack ad nauseam, memorized the lyrics, and even researched Hamilton's life. To say I'm… Continue reading Tuesday Tunesday: The Story of Tonight
Motivational Monday: Give Love
Happy Motivational Monday, friends! I don't know about you, but I had an incredible weekend, and I owe so much of that to you guys. I turned 29 on Saturday and was spoiled rotten with so many delicious treats, cards, and gifts, I've fallen into a bit of a sugar coma. One cake… Continue reading Motivational Monday: Give Love
Kermit’s Cup of Tea: Friday Findings
Happy Friday, friends! This has been such an incredible week, but I'll admit, it's also been ridiculously long and exhausting. I've been so busy, it feels like I've been running around like a chicken with my head cut off. I'm really looking forward to starting Spring Break in less than two weeks, but until that… Continue reading Kermit’s Cup of Tea: Friday Findings
