Gain An Hour Of Sleep, Lose More Sunlight
UNITED STATES—Well, if you don’t know by now, let me remind you, this Sunday is Daylight Savings Time. What does that mean? Well it happens twice a year.

Candy Overload
UNITED STATES—Is there ever a thing as having too much candy? Well, after trick-or-treating with my nieces I think I can say yes. Why?

Finding A Work Balance
UNITED STATES—It is hard people, we can say all the time that it is so easy to find a work/life balance. We are told countless times we have to find a balance between work and our personal lives.

Get Rid Of It People, Declutter Your Life!
UNITED STATES—Clutter, clutter people, we talk about it all the time and I’m realizing once you get things organized and in order, it just makes your life so much easier.

Take A Risk When It Comes To Life
UNITED STATES—If there is anything that I am learning about life as I get older it is that things don’t always go your way in life. You’re told that if you work hard you’ll always see the results you want and I used to think that, but I don’t. Sometimes you can be the hardest worker in the world...

Being Back At The Movie Theater Was Amazing!
UNITED STATES—This past weekend was the first time I entered a movie theater in over 18 months. Yes, 18 months. For me that is unheard of because I’m a movie lover. Going to the movie theater was a ritual for me where I would go at least once a week, if not twice a month at the bare minimum....
Call It A Sick Day
UNITED STATES—It happens to the best of us, we all get sick and when we do we have to make that decision rather to go tough it out and go to work or call it a day. Well America, I had one of those days recently and I felt immense guilt at first, but my mind and body told...
Social Media Outage
UNITED STATES—If anything I learned this week it is the fact that we are way too dependent on social media. For the first time in ages, we had a social media outage and people nearly lost their minds America. Why? Well, Facebook, Instagram and Whats App was down for several hours on October 4. People were literally losing their...
Curb Debt, By Not Creating It
UNITED STATES—Debt is debt. It is something I think every American has and will have a vast portion of their lives. Why? We have credit cards, we have loans, we have access to things that can get us in trouble. With the credit card it starts off small, but before you know it you start swiping and you cannot...
