The Last Text My brother sent me the link to this video that shares the stories of several young people effected by texting & driving. Some are still alive, some are not. I know I am guilty of doing this sometimes, though I’ve really made an effort to stop. However, after watching this for ten [...]

2010 was one of the warmest years on record, tying with 2005. Check out this photo gallery chronicling the biggest climate impacts of 2010, including the gulf oil spill and countless other weather anomalies. These events should remind of us the importance in doing our part – recycle, support clean energy, and educate yourself on [...]

Gotta love this site, even though I don’t live in an apartment – big houses still need creative decor and organizational tips! : – ) Though my Google Reader stays pretty full, I do my best to keep up with all the great blogs I follow, and this is one of them. While browsing this [...]

You can make them public or private, tag them with information for organization, and have easy access to your uploads from [...]

What a cold, gray day we’ve had (and I’m not just talking about the state of politics after the disappointing midterm elections). This is perfect weather for a sleepy nightshift girl, but not so much for a day full of classes, errands, and projects. The bird tree provided interesting scenery during my post-workout lunch break [...]

I am often finding little things here and there, whether it be a new food item (like this week), a new store, a new concept, or a new TV show. I always like to share cool new finds, because that’s how I’ve come across lots of can’t-live-withouts from others making the effort to share a [...]
