For the last couple weeks I’ve been trying to decide on a domain name for my blog. It hasn’t been easy because, I’ll be honest, I’m not creative whatsoever with names. I’m still really attached to my blog name ‘Press Play’ because to me, it’s about more than just the literal meaning that it can [...]
I often wonder to myself how the decisions I make each day affect my future. I also often wonder how the decisions my friends & family make affect me- yesterday, today, tomorrow, and every day that follows. Sometimes, I see the way my life is playing out and I try to rewind and figure out [...]
Last week I wrote a post called “If you don’t succeed, try & try again” because I was feeling kind of hopeless about figuring out what I’m supposed to be doing in my life. The great thing about blogging stories about my successes and my failures is that I am always sincerely amazed at the [...]
I think one of the reasons I’m constantly doubting myself is because I feel like I’m always trying too hard. Some people have the ability to be amazing at anything they set their mind to, and yet when I pour my heart & soul into something I don’t often get the results I’d hoped for. [...]

Two weeks ago I wrote about my experience as a vegetarian for one week and said that I had a post about the lessons I learned on the way. Well, it’s a little bit late- but better late than never, right?! As of today, I’ve cut meat out of my diet drastically. It was never [...]
I’ve been debating whether I wanted to keep this weekly feature or not for a few weeks now. Since my Post A Day 2011 challenge is over, I can freely take weekends off my blogging schedule (yay!) but I think every once in a while I may bring this back and share some of my [...]
Hope you’re all having a lovely weekend! Here are a few things I’ve been loving this week. -This weekend, YouTube has been hosting something really awesome and special called ‘The Project For Awesome’ which is basically a time for people to create videos supporting their favorite charities and collecting money from donations via YouTube.
