I'm back!

Hi Tumblr! I’ve missed you. I know I’ve neglected you for months, but now I’m craving to get back on it especially since that I have something to write about! This summer has probably been my best one in my college career as of yet. Although my summer has been awesome as a whole, there was one week in particular that would definitely be considered my favorite - my medical mission trip to Honduras. For the next two days, I want to share my account and thoughts throughout the trip as a way to reflect and remember, a reminder of important lessons that I’ve gained.

Stay tuned!

I don't have the slightest clue what she's singing, but this song hits me straight into the feels.

Hi Tumblr, I miss you. Let's stay together. <3

One of my all-time favorite songs covered by this legendary male vocal group. Perfection.

This weeks theme: PRODUCTIVITY! All entrepreneurs need some tips and tricks to keep us on top of our game!

Blessed with whom I've encountered/befriended, the places I've been and the experiences I've had the opportunity to be a part of so far in my life. I'm ready for more.

Haha, I know I post a lot of these appreciative notes, but I'm sincerely grateful.

"YOU ARE MY DESTINYYYYYYYYY."

You! Yeah you! Watch "My Love From Another Star" and let your heart melt as mine did.

You got a dream... You gotta protect it. People can't do somethin' themselves, they wanna tell you you can't do it. If you want somethin', go get it. Period.

"Maybe we should live life as if the moments cannot be recorded, and to treat each as one that will melt away with the next fall of rain."

Time After Time

This song has been on repeat for me for the past few days and the more I listen to it, the more I pay attention to the lyrics. "If you're lost you can look and you will find me.. time after time." No matter where you go in life and the numerous people that you meet, there will always be the select few you can always come to for familiarity, a sense of home. It's funny because during my winter break I karaoke'd with several of my friends and one of my oldest friends from elementary school chose this particular song to sing with me. Never could a song's lyrics be so true. It seriously felt nice singing lyrics that really meant something in that moment in time (my friend sang wonderfully, btw, so that definitely added an emotional factor to the song haha). I absolutely love each and every one of my friends (new and old) dearly and appreciate all that they've offered to me - love, adventures, talks, companionship, their overall sincere, beautiful souls. I promise myself this year to never miss an opportunity to hug them and tell them how much I really do love them.

The physical barrier of some sort of screen can seriously kill conversation.

I'm going to use the holiday break to relax and reenergize not because I think I deserve it, but because my mind really needs space to breathe and reflect.

Straight-up groovin'

Food for thought.

Blessed to know (and be friends with!) inspiring, kind people.

Small Pond in a Big Ocean

For the past couple of weeks, I have almost routinely bumped into someone that I know from high school, a classmate/friend from past classes and/or a current classmate/friend. I think it's absolutely crazy to think that in such a densely populated and vast school like Rutgers, you can constantly bump into a few familiar, friendly faces and honestly, it gives me a warm feeling. It's good to know that throughout all those years and/or months and/or days, you have made connections and even strong bonds with people. In some way or form, you've made an impression on them and they onto you and whenever you bump into each other, exchanges of genuine smiles and "how are you's" always occur. I don't know, it's just lovely to have those 1-5 minutes of familiarity that remind you that you're not just an individual here but a component of a network of good-vibin', solid, natural camaraderie.
