Just days before my 21st birthday, I am embracing a new year and a new me.

​It’s been a long time coming but I can finally share that I am transferring to Rutgers University next Fall! I will be pursuing a degree in Public Health at the Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy.

This was not an easy decision to make and I will miss Georgia Tech dearly. I’ve made some lifelong friends and have grown tremendously as a person, leader, and entrepreneur in my two years there.

I know that it’s the end of the semester for a lot of people and many are studying for exams right now so I thought I’d share something about anxiety, specifically test anxiety. 

Exactly a year ago, all I wanted was to give up and not study. I really didn’t want to take my finals thinking that I was gonna fail them anyway. In fact, all I wanted was to fly home and just take an Incomplete for the semester. 

And I totally would have, if it weren't for the support of my mom and my closest friends in Alpha Gam and at Georgia Tech. 

TO MY GRAND LITTLE, 

Welcome to the family! I'M SO GLAD TO BE YOUR gBIG AND I LOVE YOU ALREADY!

Being 2500 miles away didn't stop me from giving my gLittle Lia a "Welcome to the Fam" package.

What's crafting without a little bit of canvas pun? I mean, fun. 

From Big/Little to Grad Gifts, I sure did a lot of crafting last summer. I'm not kidding when I say I went to Michael's every week. I wish I was, but no- my bank account says otherwise. 

Anyway, here's two of the pun-tastic canvases (one's actually a clipboard) that I painted. 

​Enjoy!
