  • Singles: You MUST hear this (marrieds, you should too)

    Absorbing media aimed at singles has become my own version of gambling. Pull the lever and hope luck is on my side! Will the media be insightful? Encouraging? Laughable? Completely cringe-worthy? You never know until you jump in! This weekend when I heard my friends’ church was doing a topical sermon on the subject, I…

  • The 10-Minute Test

    As a psychological experiment, a friend challenged me to dialogue to him about anything that came to mind for 10 minutes straight. The catch? He would not react or reply. It would be just me and essentially dead silence as he listened. Then, we would swap places and he would dialogue for 10 minutes in…

  • Going Offline.

    It’s so easy to be completely wrapped up in all things digital. I make my living by operating a large company’s social media. I keep in touch with my family through the internet. Many of my dearest friends exist within the constraints of Facebook Messenger due to the miles that limit our in-person visits. I…

  • Blogging (For the wrong reasons!)

    I haven’t been blogging much in the past 12 months. For years it had been near-instinctual for me to be producing frequent web content. Ever since I moved to North Carolina last year and got into the marketing world, I had just assumed I no longer desired to create blog posts and such because it’s…

  • What We Can Learn From Nerd Weddings

    As I’ve watched friends get married over the past several years (and watched other friends plot what their dream weddings would look like), I’ve come to a conclusion…   Nerds have the best weddings. So much of the time, every wedding feels the same. Flowers, candles, sometimes bells. Fancy outfits and food, elegant yet serious…

  • Internet Friends: How to Keep Connected From Afar

    As a child I grew up hearing horror stories about all the creeps from the internet who would kidnap young ladies. I had all the warnings that many 90’s/early 2000’s kids got about how one should never meet anyone from the internet. Yet somehow, despite all of this, I now find myself in the year…

    Freelance Photography: A Newbie’s First Journey

    This past week I landed my first-ever freelance photography gig!   Well, technically, I’ve had others. I’ve done small-time paid photo shoots for people ever since I was in high school. However, this one is special. This is my first gig for someone entirely out of my social circles.   The opportunity: product photography. Specifically,…

    Finding Joy in the Small Stuff

    These days, most people are stressed. Most people are busy. Most people feel they have no time to slow down, even for just a few minutes. Even when folks are physically slowed down, mentally they are running through their to-do lists and plotting their next move. I get that feeling. I find myself sucked into…
