  • REI 1440 Project

    REI 1440 Project

    I know I’m super late to the party on this one, but I stumbled across this REI 1440 Project on Twitter, and I love it! It’s about celebrating every minute spent outdoors. There are 1440 minutes in the day, and the site catalogues the photos people submit into the minute that it was taken so […]

  • The Key to a Happy Life (After Graduation and Beyond)

    The Key to a Happy Life (After Graduation and Beyond)

      I’ve had some realizations about life recently. First, I am not in this strange in-between period between semesters or even degrees. I have no current plans to return to school. I have my bachelor’s degree, which I am content with for the time being. This is a strange feeling since I have been in school […]

  • Fall is in the Air!

    Fall is in the Air!

    Good Afternoon! So it is officially September (where did the time go this year?!), and the first signs of fall are in the air. When living in Florida, fall for me was just a sign of not ungodly hot weather and maybe some fall festivals in the area. Living in Utah, autumn brings mixed feelings […]

  • Ragnar Relay: Florida Keys

    Ragnar Relay: Florida Keys

    Where did the month of February go?  Last month was a pretty hectic month for me. From snowboarding lessons to Florida to Arizona, I felt like I was going the entire month. (This explains my slacking on my blog posts– sorry everyone!). I’m going to catch up on my blogging slowly but surely. Let’s start […]

  • Ice Castles in Midway, Utah

    Ice Castles in Midway, Utah

    As part of my Utah winter experience, I went to visit the Ice Castles in Midway, UT. In a word: astounding. Entirely made out of ice and water, the structures were pretty large. They had various activities, mostly catering to families but still entertaining for adults. There was an ice maze, ice canyons, live Elsa and […]

  • Tubing at Gorgoza Park

    Tubing at Gorgoza Park

    Today, I got to cross another thing off my bucket list! I went tubing at Gorgoza Park near Park City, UT. Basically, it’s just like sledding on a tube. There were not too many people my age going without kids, but hey! I am a kid and I have no shame. The weather was pretty […]

  • Sundance 2014

    Sundance 2014

    While I am here in Salt Lake, I am lucky enough to be here during Sundance Film Festival. I am no movie buff in the slightest. I’m actually probably rather behind on mainstream movies, but I felt like I should try to take advantage of my opportunities while I am here! I decided I was […]

  • Floridian, meet Snow

    Floridian, meet Snow

    As I settle into my new home for the semester, I am exploring the Salt Lake and the new environment. I’ve never lived in a snowy climate, so many things are new to me. Katie and I walked to the park near my house and took in the sight of a winter wonderland. We saw […]
