  • If you let it shine, you can free your mind.

    LIGHTBULB. Absolute lightbulb went off in my head this morning. I have been listening to this song- Sober by Childish Gambino– for a few months now and it is such a jam. Sometimes I get stuck on songs just because and other times… it’s because they are meant to teach me something. I still remember…

  • Read me – I’m meant for you if you want me.

    Touch a life today. About a week and a half ago- on the way to rehearsals with the amazing UCD Dance Society Irish Dancing Crew, we came across this lovely note that was just waiting for someone to open it. So naturally, I opened it and read it. Well let me just tell you ……

  • Who says you can’t do that?

    Did you know today is Blog Action Day? Join bloggers from around the world and write a post about what inequality means to you. Have you ever encountered it in your daily life? Quite simply it means this- Joe has 5 apples and Paul has 3. So that is inequality. Joe has more apples- most would…

  • An extra hour to … SLEEP?!

    Good news — another hour has just been added to every 24-hour day (don’t ask us how. We have powers). How do you use those extra sixty minutes? Nooooo… I thought about it. But no. After my last rant it makes sense that if I had an extra hour in each day that I would just…

  • I have so much to say

    I have so much to say

    I just have so much to say. I am feeling super reflective lately because I am finally realizing just how much I love the life I have made here in Dublin. I’ve always loved it here… but mannnn this is unbelievable. I am also extremely happy that I have finally found a place and a…

  • This year has been a blessing.

    This year has been a blessing.

    And then we won! I couldn’t believe it! I have to just take a minute here. To be thankful and grateful and feel blessed because I am. This past week I have danced every single day (till yesterday) and I made my TV debut!! We were asked to participate in Ireland’s An Jig Gig TV…

  • Security in doing things that take a long time

    Security in doing things that take a long time

    I swear… from that moment I was determined to get to where I am today. When, on that dreadful day – February 5th 2013- I ended up in the ER with a torn achilles tendon, I knew I was on the beginning of a verrryyyyy long journey. The first ten days felt the longest. By…

  • Let your thoughts flow.

    Our free-write is back by popular demand: today, write about anything — but you must write for exactly ten minutes, no more, no less. What did I get myself into? I have been running around like a madwoman all week! This week was auditions for UCD Dance Society and they asked me to teach the hip…

  • Inspiration- Part 1 of a love story.

    Inspiration- Part 1 of a love story.

    That day turned into multiple days and weeks of fabulous friendship and sleepovers and crazy nights out and tons and tons of free-spirited good times. You should speak out strongly. Hmm, makes me think. So I will. Speak out strongly that is. Because my horoscope has inspired me. Now all you skeptics out there can…

  • Happy Birthday Babygirl.

    Happy Birthday Babygirl.

    One year ago today I was so desperate. One year ago today I was so hopeful. One year ago today I knew I would be here. One year ago today I had no idea how I would get here. One year ago today I had faith that carried me through to today. Today I am…
