Kermit Says: Surviving the Holidays
As much as I adore the beauty and majesty of the holiday season, I realize that this can be a terribly difficult time for others. In the midst of the glowing lights and cheerful dispositions, the holidays can also stress you out, remind you of experiences you've worked so hard to forget, make you… Continue reading Kermit Says: Surviving the Holidays
Wellness Wednesday: Quench Your Thirst!
I know so many people who avoid drinking water like it's the plague. In fact, NPR reports that "one-quarter of a broad cross-section of children ages 6 to 19 apparently don't drink any water as part of their fluid intake." I've heard so many excuses as to why: It's too cold. It's too bland. I… Continue reading Wellness Wednesday: Quench Your Thirst!
Motivational Monday: Make the Most of Your Break!
Whether you're in middle school, high school, college, or beyond, one of the best parts about school is going on a well-deserved and much-needed break.

Kermit Says: 2016 Holiday Gift Guide
It's the most wonderful time of the year, friends! While I encourage you to shower your friends and family with love and appreciation throughout the year (especially with non-monetary gifts), I understand that holidays (and birthdays) are oftentimes the perfect opportunities to give and receive presents. Can you believe we're just two short weeks away… Continue reading Kermit Says: 2016 Holiday Gift Guide
Wellness Wednesday: Electric Smoothie
I know this week we've been talking all things patience, and I oftentimes feel as though the morning rush is really testing said patience. With sleep still covering my eyes and drool fresh on my pillow, making breakfast is the last thing on my mind. In fact, it's not even on my radar. If this… Continue reading Wellness Wednesday: Electric Smoothie
Tuesday Tunesday: My Shot!
Theater has always been a huge part of my life. I can vividly remember putting on plays for my family members and forcing them to attend, sitting on the steps at home belting out lyrics from The Bodyguard, playing Mrs. Potts in my elementary school's production of Beauty and the Beast, performing in my high school's… Continue reading Tuesday Tunesday: My Shot!
