[amber waves of grain..] I am absolutely horrible at this regular blogging thing, aren’t I? As usual, stressful things happened and I just haven’t been in the mood to keep up because of that. So, right now I’m trying to find a virtual volunteer opportunity. Websites like VolunteerMatch.org and Idealist.org have them – it could […]

20 Questions Day Eight: Middle School

By Lauren | Published September 20, 2012

What were you like in middle school? What were your clothing/music choices? Ooo, this is a fun one! Well, middle school puts me around the years of 1995-1997.

By Lauren | Published September 19, 2012

What’s something on your “bucket list”? You can see my actual bucket list here, but the one thing that stands out for me right now is that I would love to learn how to snowboard. I know it’s hard, but it really appeals to me, and it seems like it’s more my thing than skiing. […]
