  • When You’re No Longer Her Baby

    I’ve started to stop thinking about my mom. After a long day yesterday, I realized I had spent the whole day without thinking about her—something that has practically never happened before.

  • Unpacking Life, One Song at a Time

    It’s official…it’s happened. I have a severe case of writer’s block. School started a week ago, and my brain has had no time to think about writing or even figure out what to write about.
