10 Savings Apps You Need to Know About
I remember the last time my car broke down. I was living paycheck to paycheck, and the ball joint of my Mitsubishi Lancer had snapped. It cost around $900 cash to fix. Had my mother not bailed me out, I'd have been out of luck and out of a job.

What Writing Has Done for Me
Writing was never a passion of mine when I was younger. I hated having to write when it came to schoolwork because I never thought my writing was good enough for anyone to read. Teachers and professors seemed to give me good grades for my writing, but I could never understand why, it sucked. One paper that I wrote which was based on real parts of my life earned me a spot as a guest speaker in one of her other classes. I felt honored that she asked me to.

Leadership
Have you ever had a boss that you felt is only leading because of their position? Or you had a boss that you would do anything for because you saw they really are more than the job?

Am I Too Young to Do This?
In my first job after uni I had "gut-feelings" about challenges or short-comings in the marketing department. I couldn't put my finger on the problem and I didn't know what I didn't know. So I tried to fix it, fell on my face, and figured out the hard way how NOT to be constructive or helpful. It wasn't appreciated from someone who didn't know what they were talking about. In other words, I was too young to have an opinion or to be taken seriously.

Pick One
What do you do when you have so many things you enjoy in life? "Just pick a career!" everyone will tell you. Teachers, parents, friends, mentors, everybody. How do you pick a path in life when you love so many different things? I love nature. I love making things. I love helping others. I love things that I don't even know the category of. If you're someone like me, you know exactly what I'm saying. They tell you that you need to pour all your time into one thing, to be the best at what you do. Tell me how you pick, because I want to know.

Moving on After College
Like many of the people I went through grade school with, I had a job since I was 16-years-old. My first job ever was as a waitress at a retirement home... that's how badly I wanted to make my own money! I've always been an independent person (holding down three jobs as a full time student at one point). So, when I graduated college, I naively assumed life would continue as it always had: working, having fun, hanging out with friends, a little snip of day time drinking (no shame).
