The Skimm Life | I am a huge advocate of staying on top of what's going on in the world, despite how busy your life can get. Every morning as I rush to my classes and chew my granola bar, I read The Skimm and New York Times in my inbox. This is not only the easiest way to keep yourself in-the-loop but also for small-talk in meetings and interviews!
A Quick Word From the First Lady | One of the things that has been emphasized in my politics class this semester is that the Presidency really isn't just about the President - there are many other aspects but let's focus on the First Lady for a minute. Michelle Obama has done a lot of work over the past few years on healthy living and female empowerment - this quick video is just a small, cute little piece of it!
DC Food Tours - Where Do I Sign Up | I have followed Katie's blog for about as long as I've been blogging, and she never fails to leave me slightly upset that I don't live on the other side of the country! Warning: Don't read this post if you're not prepared to die over the sounds of the amazing food tours!
Better than the Selfie Stick? | All of the photos I have of me and my dog include her looking away or trying to lick me - not a single selfie with my pup! At one point, I attempted the use of a selfie stick with the dog and let's say that didn't turn out well... This popped up on my feed a few days ago and just thought I'd share because puppies and selfies are real baes.
The Stages of Coffee Detox | Considering the unhealthy amount of caffeine I have consumed this week alone, I thought I'd share this because trying to come off of a long coffee week is rough, especially for college kids!
Chasing Life No More | I really liked ABC Family's Chasing Life, it was a nice change of pace compared to some of their other shows. Unfortunately, after only the second season, the show has been cancelled for low ratings. To be honest, I haven't watched in a while because I've been busy, but also because I'm still a bit salty about a certain character death. Maybe other people agree?
Your Uber Driver is Rating You | In the back of my mind, I knew this was happening but it hadn't really registered in my mind until now. I have been using Uber quite a bit lately for meetings that are a bit close to campus but don't have any parking. Not sure if I want to check my score, will you?
I am ready for the weekend - are you? What are you looking forward to?

Catch you next time.
I love the idea of the Pooch Selfie Stick! I try and take pictures with my dog and it never works out! It definitely made me laugh!

I have never heard of TheSkimm! I just signed up. My husband and I got rid of cable and I'm lost without the news. Hoping it will help me stay up to date!

Great round-up!! I recently got the NY Times app on my phone (for a journalism class) and I've been enjoying the push notifications it sends to my phone.
ReplyDeleteAnd I didn't watch Chasing Life but I heard good things about it!! It did sound interesting and different as far as ABC Family shows go!

ReplyDeleteI've been drinking way too much coffee lately - it's doing bad things to my skin haha. I'll really need to detox as soon as I'm finish a big project that I'm working on!

I LOVE Skimm! It helps me keep up with the world in less than two minutes! And I consume way too much coffee. I know it, it's a problem, but maybe the detox will help!
