Hey y'all! For the first 14 days of February, I am going to be doing 14 Days of Valentine's Day! I was reading my friend Emma's blog, Dash of Serendipity, and she recently did something similar. She did "24 Days of Dash of Serendipity" for the month of December! It was incredibly clever and I ...
My Post-Grad Plans
I never thought that this day would come. It’s really odd that in 5 months, I am going to be a college graduate, a Samford alumna, an officially adult. If I’m being honest, it’s scary.
