This I Believe
“Everything about us supports the Yankees, we bleed blue.” These words echo through my childhood. We are Yankees fans, tried and true. Growing up the morale of my family was based on how the Yankees played; if we won, we celebrated, if we lost the whole family grieved. The Yankees were our only excuse for […]

YOU Have a Story To Tell
As I explored the WishDish site with a friend of mine, she immediately told me, “This seems like a cool idea, but not sure if I have anything to share. I’m not a good writer anyways.” As I have seen throughout high school and college, many of us have this same sentiment when it comes […]

Losing My Virginity
“Well, you’re not a virgin anymore,” he said. It was hot outside. He had blue eyes. Charming. Tan muscles built on a farm. This isn’t what I asked for. What if I get pregnant? What just happened? I’m shaking. I need to pull over. Wait, no…what if he’s following me? I’m only 17. This shouldn’t […]

PLEASE READ

When I was 16 I attended a leadership conference where I was told to write down a goal and mine was that I wanted to be a […]

Write Up My Alley
I hated writing.  If you told me growing up that I’d be doing it for fun after college, I absolutely would have rolled my eyes!  Writing was a chore.  But…in my third-year-writing class, I completed a 20-page research paper on looping and tracking in education (one of my nerdy passions), and I realized how much […]

Baton Rouge: A Catalyst Since 1953
I was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, during the turbulent Civil Rights Movement in 1968, the year which epitomized the era with the assassinations of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Bobby Kennedy. The Red Stick has always been a catalyst for change, even if she was often times an unintentional participate. The Baton Rouge I […]

Everyone Wants To Be an Entrepreneur
Ask around, and most people will tell you about their great idea or how they “thought of it first.” A lot of people on the “outside” believe if they wanted to pursue an entrepreneurial idea, they could just do so. But, most people never pursue that path, and those that do often fail. I think […]

Pressure Forms Diamonds
Since the summer before my freshman year of college, I have worked in football recruiting for an SEC school. When I first started I was somewhat awkward, extremely uncomfortable with public speaking, and was somewhat content with just being involved enough to have a full resume. Never all in.  As I became more involved and […]
