Happy Snow Day to all my east coast people! I have some time to kill today, and a lot of people lately have been curious about this "new diet" that I am on. So, I felt it was time to write about my journey over the last few months to finally feel healthy again. Let me just begin by saying that when I was a kid, I literally ate whatever I wanted. Lots of junk food, lots of soda. Like most kids, honestly. I was also a kid before everyone went crazy with the "organic" and "gluten-free" stuff...

Every year around this time, I see a million gift guides popping up all over Instragram and Facebook. Most are targeting women shopping for their loves one - boyfriends, husbands, children, girlfriends, parents, etc. And every year, I think to myself how most of these are, well, generic.

I never really do New Year's resolutions, or at least not in a serious way.

I can reinvent the rules; always tempt the edges of what I am doing. Don’t take things personally. When I feel off-balance, use it....

Over the past 6-7 months, I've been shooting footage of my every day life. Mostly ordinary stuff. I was hoping to give people a brief glimpse into me and what's been going on. Below is the video I created for the first half of 2016, with a part 2 to follow at the end of this year. It isn't perfect. Obviously, it was difficult for me to always have my camera for everything, and I definitely missed some big moments (my graduation, in class, more showcase stuff and Othello). My exhaustion got the better of me sometimes and...
