What makes you feel nostalgic? I’m old I guess. It doesn’t feel like I’m old but simultaneously I’m reminded of it when I think of something that I thought wasn’t that long ago and realize it’s been 20+ years.

Think back on your most memorable road trip. I can’t pick just one memorable road trip. Ever since I was little, we would pack up our suitcases and drive the two day drive to Florida or the Carolinas. Sure we flew sometimes, but my mom tended to get sick on planes, so we usually chose…

It’s new years as shocking as it might be, yet another year has passed us by and boy do they seem to fly faster and faster. I like to say that I usually don’t fall for the typical New Year’s resolutions bandwagon, only to give up after a few weeks. But this year is a…
