  • Late Night Conversations

    It’s impossible for me to sleep tonight. I just took my first STEM course exam in hopes of setting myself up to one day enter a PhD program in observational Astronomy. Before I get to that you must know. . . I wasn’t always interested in science. But a couple of years back, during what…

  • Sex in the City and Me

    6 seasons of Sex in the City and a hand full of job applications later . . . It’s October and I’m in between the in between career change. Six months late to be exact. It’s taken me some time to understand that a full-time job with benefits does not define me. Neither should a…
