Hello World! Today was my first day in D.C, and I had an exciting first day in the city. One of my roommates and I decided to venture out this afternoon to find the location of the place where she would be interning, and it was quite an experience. We had to use the metro and found it to be a unique experience all on its own. There were several people begging for money that would often try to approach us or others, so we had to be cautious to avoid them for our safety. When we finally made it on the metro, we were super proud of our navigation…

Hello Word! It that time of the year when everything is due, and all of the extra time you thought you had is gone. Yesterday, I found myself registering for yet another semester of college classes. At this point in my life, I feel as though everything is in super-fast motion. I am 20 years old and am theoretically going to be graduating in December! How does this happen?
