What Alice Forgot
I love winter break. Aside from getting to rest, relax, visit Josh’s family in Connecticut, and reflect on how amazing 2012 was, I also got to read. I love immersing myself in a good book, but somehow never seem to get around to it in-between classes and work. I love PBFingers book club and was… [Read More]
Getting Ready for the Holidays

I got to the hospital at 2:30 and met an awesome lung technician named Norm who immediately… [Read More]
