When I gave my landlord notice, he immediately had the Craigslist ad up and viewings scheduled. I told him what times worked for me, and when I would be out, so to just knock and if I’m not there he can just come on in.

I hate going to the liquor store anytime in the week surrounding my birthday. That seems silly, right? Going to the liquor store around one’s birthday says that you are doing something fun for your birthday—drinks with friends, a party, something other than eating ice cream on your bedroom floor alone.

This week I had to go renew my driver’s licence. Now most people would agree that the photo is the worst part, and don’t get me wrong, I have had some beauties over the years: the sweaty looking one, the double chin one, and of course the one where I wore no makeup and people question if it’s me.

Last year for Super Bowl XLVIII (48, I Googled it) I decided to host a Super Bowl party for my friends. I originally came up with the idea based on a combination of Pinterest boards and a few drinks one night while watching a game. I will be the first to admit that I am more interested in the food and drinks that accompany sports, rather than the sports themselves.

The beginning of the semester is an exciting and terrifying time when you are in college. For me, the fresh start of a new semester is eclipsed by the sheer terror of starting over. All of a sudden the comforts of last semester are gone and a new routine must be formed—including the meeting and remembering of fellow students’ and professors’ names. It’s a lot of pressure—my memory is the worst.

Let me just preface this story by telling you how much I love Disney. The movies, the music, and the magic—it’s all good in my books. When Frozen came out last year I was hooked; it was old-school Disney—the animation didn’t make me cringe, and don’t even get me started about that soundtrack. Amazing.

So, my parents went out of town the last weekend before school started, which meant that I got the house to myself. I was super excited because with the house to myself I could have my boyfriend Jason stay over—this would be the first time my parents went away since my brother moved out.

I recently decided that I was going to give online dating a shot—lets face it, it’s been a while, and a girl has needs. I burned through all of the usual free suspects: Tinder, POF, stalking friends of friends on Instagram, but nothing stuck.

Did you forget to wear a shirt today? Did you wear too many shirts today? Were you so hungry after lunch that you found yourself eating barely-trash Timbits from the cafeteria garbage can?
