Happy day-after–Bad Bunny–halftime-show. I woke up to a FLURRY of chats on my high school thread (52 to be exact) and at the end of that thread I had to ask, “Wait…WHO won the game!?!?” Times like that are when I FEEL not living in my country.

In My WorldOne of my Business Storyprenuers gave me a casual anxiety attack yesterday during our office hours when she said there are like 20 more days of summer. My actual reaction when she spoke. This summer isn’t the one I envisioned as my first one living abroad (and I’m at peace with it) but after our […]
