I love to travel, try new foods (both simple and "exotic"), ingest caffeine, and watch political news coverage. Im a big pop culture junkie who isnt afraid to say she loves "In Touch" Magazine! A social marketing expert and psychologist by training who works in the public health field trying to bring a little common sense to it all.
All the world is my television and I like to provide commentary on it.
Cheers
I’m not usually one to get dizzy from news headlines, but this one gave me a touch of vertigo just reading it. The Huajiang Grand Canyon Bridge in southern China has officially opened, and it’s now the world’s tallest bridge standing 2,050 feet above the Beipan River. That’s […]
I have a question that’s been nibbling at my frontal lobe lately: Why do brick-and-mortar banks still exist? No, really. Every time I pass one, it looks like a set from a post-apocalyptic finance movie. There’s the eerie fluorescent lighting, rows of perfectly aligned cubicles that sit as […]
Apparently, cherries, kiwi, and grapes are the holy trinity of sleep. Yes, you read that right. Not melatonin gummies, not sleepy tea, but a fruit bowl away from a full REM cycle. According to an article I stumbled upon, these three common fruits (emphasis on common) can help […]
What’s your #1 priority tomorrow? Ah, Sunday. The day I solemnly swear to “sleep in,” only to find myself wide awake at 6:42 a.m., staring at the ceiling like it owes me rent money. My brain, ever the overachiever, is already conducting a preemptive staff meeting about the […]
Tell us about a time when you felt out of place. I am an extroverted introvert. Yes, we exist. No, it’s not a riddle. It means I can work a room with charm, banter, and enough social pizzazz to look like I was born in sequins and confetti. […]
Imagine walking into your boss’s office in the U.S. and announcing: “Yeah, I’m just not feeling it this week. I’ll see you in ten business days.” In most workplaces, HR would descend like a pack of caffeinated hawks, fluttering policies, paperwork, and possibly pink slips in your direction. […]
Some people celebrate October 1st as the beginning of the fourth quarter. Others mark it as pumpkin spice season. Me? I declare it the official beginning of the Month of Halloween. Yes, a whole month. Don’t argue with me. You can keep your one-day Halloween party and your […]
Scrolling through Facebook the other day (yes, I still do that so don’t @ me), I came across a random comment that stopped me mid-scroll:“Soon the internet will just be AI bots responding to each other, and then we can all go do something else.” Reader, I giggled. […]
Confession time. I am not a cookie person. Yes, I said it. Spare me your gasps of horror. I don’t like peanut butter cookies, oatmeal cookies, sprinkled cookies, gingerbread, shortbread, or those overly sweet macaroons (are they even real cookies or just coconut imposters?). Keep them all. But […]
The other day, flattened by a stomach virus, I did what any rational human would do: I curled up on the couch with Gatorade, saltines, and a show about trauma, deception, and redemption. Because apparently, The Great British Bake Off was too wholesome for my queasy insides. Instead, […]
