things i don’t want to forget about cuba

January 13, 2019January 13, 2019Leave a comment

In December of 2018, I had the extreme pleasure of taking a cruise with one of my best friends (and two of her closest friends from college) that docked in Havana, Cuba for one day each.  The world feels large and unconquerable when you survey it swaying in the middle of the ocean, but I … Continue reading things i don’t want to forget about cuba

festival fashion basics from a not so festival basic

August 25, 2017November 28, 2018Leave a comment

Before I went to Firefly Music Festival, my good friend Alexa told me she could not wait for me to have the experience because as a seasoned festival-goer, she has not found a place that makes her feel more self-assured and at peace.  Alexa has a vested interest in this scene and I wanted to get … Continue reading festival fashion basics from a not so festival basic

on being present

In an effort to make my online presence as a writer a bit more cohesive, I will be taking pieces of mine published on various platforms and adding them to my LipLiner portfolio.  Next up is a piece originally published for HerCampus SUNY New Paltz in December 2015 -- "on being present".  Enjoy!   Though Vincent Van Gogh’s grave … Continue reading on being present

my grandma is the best

November 14, 2016November 14, 20162 Comments

My grandma has lived with my family for as long as I can remember. She actually used to live in the room that is now mine. But during the winter months, she goes to Virginia to visit my family for the holidays. The other day, I was scrolling through Facebook and the most adorable photo … Continue reading my grandma is the best

a short anecdote to tell you we’re all learning

September 12, 20161 Comment

Happy Monday, everybody! To help you ease into the new week, today I present to you a nice, short ditty.  I'll cut the preamble and get right to the part I want you to remember: A couple of days ago I was training someone at work, and throughout the duration of the shift, she hit … Continue reading a short anecdote to tell you we’re all learning

cheap + local: barner books

August 29, 20161 Comment

So about the title...I guess local is relative to your location-- let's call this segment cheap and local(ish).  Moving on... Coincidentally, on the first day of the Fall 2016 semester (aka the reality of my graduation officially being cemented) I found myself in New Paltz visiting a friend. While roaming around, I wandered into Barner Books, … Continue reading cheap + local: barner books

let’s daydream

August 22, 2016August 23, 20162 Comments

Today's Monday just really feels like a Monday.  I'm tired and the day has barely begun for me.  I don't want to focus on the fact that I have to be at work in 45 minutes, or on this blog post for that matter.  No, my mind is focused on days where I wasn't eye-level with … Continue reading let’s daydream

we’ve got a lot to learn from little kids

August 10, 2016August 11, 2016Leave a comment

The past two days were spent on the beaches of New Jersey with two of my closest friends. Towards the end of the night we decided to take a walk on the boardwalk and go on some of the rides.  I've grown up on family vacations to amusement parks and have always looked forward to … Continue reading we’ve got a lot to learn from little kids
