  • Home is Wherever I'm With You

    Travel Journal from United States Virginia, United States | Mon May 20, 2013

    Well, the jig is up. I arrived home on Monday the 13th with a brilliant plan - to surprise my family with my arrival. The only one who knew was L, my 16-year-old sister, who would pick me up from the airport and take me home - we would giggle and sleep before surprising my parents in the morning.

  • Five Weeks to Go

    Travel Journal from United States Alabama, United States | Thu May 09, 2013

  • Thinking about the Future

    Travel Journal from United States New Jersey, United States | Sun Apr 21, 2013

    Over the last year, I've flirted with the idea of graduate school, trying to figure out the best way to go. Do i want to focus on a career in marketing? How about business? Maybe communications? No matter what I choose, the purpose for it would be to further my education and increase my marketability in the real work job market. Let's be real about something. I've almost never look at …
