I'm Living Now

Happy Birthday to the woman who's been there for me since day one. I love you mom. 😊❤🎂 #birthday #love #family #47 #summer #september

Class is officially back in session... 😧 #svsu #college #fifthyear #biology #student #organized #binders #cute

Today marks my last first day of Fall semester at SVSU. It's definitely a bittersweet feeling but I'm glad to be back for sure. This year will likely be the best one yet. 😌💜 (at Saginaw Valley State University)

Random project of the day. 📚📚 #books #old #biology #organize #clean #svsu

Adventures with the Death Squad have been amazing. This summer I'm glad @haleyvanscoyoc talked me into volunteering out at Chippewa nature center. The memories we made there were worth all the dirt and sweat. 😏👌 #cnc #chippewanaturecenter #puremichigan #friends #crew #volunteer #nature #funtimes (at Chippewa Nature Center)

Perfect night with amazing people. Couldn't have asked for a better ending to my summer. 😌💜 #shinedown #carnivalofmadness #music #dte #concerthigh #summerofconcerts #love #friends (at DTE Energy Music Theatre)

Words cannot express how grateful I am for last night. Music is a huge part of my life so I was pumped for this show. Then the night got even better when @haleyvanscoyoc had family in 5th row that gave us their seats so we could be up close for Shinedown. Truly a night I'll never forget. 😌😌🤘🤘💜💜 #shinedown #carnivalofmadness #music #dte #concerthigh #summerofconcerts #love (at DTE Energy Music Theatre)

Another good day at Chippewa. I only came out with some slight casualties today. 😏👌 #volunteer #cnc #chippewanaturecenter #deathsquad #invasiveplants #nature #biology #michigan #midland

Last week I was asked the impossible: my favorite band. After much consideration and reflection on my music library I chose A Day To Remember. I'm still just so beside myself with how well this turned out. @haleyvanscoyoc is an artistic genius. Thank you SO much for making this for me. It looks beautiful in my room and I absolutely love it. 😌💜

So I tried those bendy curl things last night. They REALLY worked. I basically looked like Shirley Temple this morning. 😉💜 #curls #hair #cute #beforeandafter #Monday

After nearly a month away from this place we got to go back and volunteer today. Even though it was a hot one we still had fun. It's always rewarding helping out. 😏 #volunteer #chippewanaturecenter #midland #puremichigan #friends #fun #biology #nature (at Chippewa Nature Center)

My inner biologist is filled with joy this Wednesday morning. 😏🔬 #reading #books #science #biology #future #career #neuroscience #nerd
