Acting on My Dream

Wednesday, May 22nd, 2013

I’ve never considered myself an entrepreneur despite majoring in business. My reason for wanting to head a personal business isn’t even money, but self-fulfillment.

I’ve been having an exciting this summer preparing for my role in Evolution Theatre Company’s modern day production of Oscar Wilde’s A Woman of No Importance. We have been working since mid-april and it opens tomorrow (!). Columbus has a vibrant theatre scene and I’m excited to perform with all of these talented actors.

Three Months of Freedom

The Life And Times Of A Summer Student, Part 1

Saturday, May 11th, 2013

For the first time in my life, I can say I’m happy to be taking summer school. High school me would faint if I said those words. I’m only taking two classes, but with how my life is going right now I feel like I can take on the world.

Tuesday, May 7th, 2013

Whoa it’s been a while. Blogging is back in my life once again. Sophomore year was insane. Everything from work, to school, to changing majors, to my faith life, I’m happy to say that my sophomore year has been the best, out of my first two at least. I’m not going to trouble you with [...]

After only a year at The Ohio State University, I am proud to say that I am no longer the student I was in high school. Though some things have dropped, I am confident that the path I am on now will prove to be most rewarding for me in the future.

Summer Anxiety

Tuesday, April 23rd, 2013

Perhaps it’s because I am now a student in college, but summer vacations no longer equate to long hours lounging in the sun and doing nothing. In fact, as summer approaches I am feeling more and more desperate to fill my time with productivity.

Ingredients for Absence

Thursday, March 14th, 2013

I have been absent from blogging for a lot longer than I am okay with. I know people don’t usually like it when people complain about how busy they are, so I’m going to make it sound as awesome as possible.

What I Learned After 15+ Interviews

Wednesday, February 27th, 2013

Over the course of the last year I have had the pleasure of being interviewed more than 15 times. Most were for college admissions, some for scholarships and others for work. Regardless of the context, however, there seem to be recurring trends in the types and structure of questions asked.
