As a bride during the age and reign of Pinterest, I can tell you of the million wedding checklists out there. Ones for your decorations, ones for your reception, ones for your bridesmaid duties, there are so many! I could sit here and give a lecture on how none of these things matter (because they […]
I’m the first (and only) nurse in my family, so this entire road has been like a long walk in the dark. My sweet mom took care of a lot of my supplies before I actually got to school, but there were so many things I didn’t know about! What brand of scrubs should I […]
It’s easy to dream about a future career, but the actual journey involves a lot less glamour and lot more cocoa and late-night essay writing. This particular post is targeted mainly toward high-schoolers and pre-nursing students.

“What?! Valentine’s Day is this week?! I haven’t done anything!” Unfortunately, I am no planner like my wonderful sisters! Holidays always seem to sneak up on me, leaving me scrambling last minute. (Is it fair that my boyfriend is a hopeless romantic and way better at all this than me?) But Valentine’s Day does not […]
I once heard in a Seminary class that the scriptures can be like a love letter from God. Whether this “week of love” with Valentine’s Day is a time of great romance or a time of loneliness, we all have access to the greatest love of all: that of our Heavenly Father and our Savior […]
