I am pretty sure I can guess how I would act on many TV reality shows. On the Bachelor, I would be the drunk girl, who empathizes with all the drunk girls and cries with them as they complain that…
Feel the fire of Volcan Arenal
After a few days of scorching hot weather that left me with a bit of heat stroke and inability to eat (and don’t forget the swollen fingers and toes), we boarded a van-bus and headed to Arenal. The problem with…
Spoiled. But in the best way possible
I think I have been pretty spoiled with the friends I have and the people I’ve met. During my semester abroad, I met the only other Canadian girl in my dorm and we hit it off immediately. We bonded over…
a very merry un-birthday to you!
