My Blogiversary – Still Kicking It After Three Years!

Today marks the third year anniversary since my first ever post on this blog! It’s certainly been a weird ride too. Originally I started out thinking I would be using this blog to chronicle my journey through law school and into the law profession, but unfortunately life has a tendency to poop all over my…

Spend, Spend, Spend! I’m my own economic boom, baby!

I’ve been going on a spending spree ever since paying off the last of my debt earlier this month, but don’t worry, most of it has been for necessities such as work shoes, which literally had gaping holes in them and were over 2 years old (you could see my toe-sies!) And believe me, you…
