Recklessly Thirty

Since starting my blog back in May of this year, I have begun to follow a few fellow twenty something bloggers. There is one specifically that caught my attention because of the way she writes and the topics she chooses to speak upon. This young woman is a twenty something in the midst of her own struggle of an adventure to thirty like myself. Being one year younger than me, I can relate completely to her blog, Twenty Everything. After reading one of her posts that hit me close to home, I reached out to her to give her my positive feedback. Next I asked her if she would mind me featuring her blog via my blog. Gladly and gratefully, she agreed! I put together an e-mail of random questions to ask her. Some meaningful, some just for no reason at all! In doing this, I learned that my fellow blogger, Sarah, was more like me than I even realized! Without further ado... Q: Why did you start blogging and what prompted that decision? A: " I have always loved writing! It's a

That's right, I have gone and done it again! I never cease to stop surprising myself with all of the silly things that I say or do. Back in September, I compiled a list of the random things I find myself doing  sometimes . It wasn't anything special, just my way of letting people know that I am one weird, funny, normal human being and it's ok for all of you twenty something's to feel the same way about yourselves! Sometimes I ...Make lists upon lists. I say this with no exaggeration to the fact that I will literally make a list of things to do and then a separate, individual to-do list of how to get the first list done. Some call it OCD, I call it organized!...But for real, that's OCD, I know! Sometimes I ...Eat potato chips in bed. Yeah, I said it! I will lie in bed and be on Pinterest or watch tv on my iPad and eat an entire can of Pringles. At times I forget that I even did it the night before and wake up in a sea of crumbs and wonder what happened. I am in n

The majority of you twenty something's will end up making your New Years resolution something along the lines of losing weight and dieting better. Maybe you'll try to quit smoking...again! Perhaps you will try to drink less. Lets face it, you'll work out for a month at most and give up because it's a lot of work. The fried foods call your name loudly. Hey it does my name too, that's why I don't work out...ever! If you're going to quit smoking, just do it already. Enough with the electronic cigarette bullshit! Man up and cold turkey it! Just quit. It's gross!! As for drinking? Well let me put it this way... After the New Year, it's February, which means Valentine's Day. As a single woman, I will be home with a glass of wine! Did I say glass? I meant a bottle....or two! Ah hell, let's face it. I'm not quitting on the drinking any time soon! 2015 for me is going to be a major change in my lifestyle!Allow me to begin with this year. If you&

With Christmas quickly approaching next week, I find it very fitting to talk about what I want... My two front teeth ...  No, I have those! What I want is to share with you a list of things I plan to do for my Christmas 2015. That's right, next year. This year, things have been quite messy, so I am planning on making next year fantastic! Not only am I sharing that list, but I'm filling you in on what I like to do on my favorite holiday of the year! Christmas morning as a child, I remember my brothers and I would have to sit on the staircase while mom took a spray bottle to our bedheads and dad got the video camera ready for our excited little faces. I would open up present after present of Barbie Dolls, baby dolls, and other toys from dear old Santy Clause.  One of my favorite things to do as a kid was to pile into the car and drive around looking at the Christmas lights on all the houses. I like doing that with a giant hot chocolate and the Christmas music blaring in my ea

Dating in your twenty's is one of the most difficult things to do. At least I find it to be. The way it was to date decades ago has turned into a slew of one night stands, awful dates, no creativity, and terrible communication between two individuals! I am no stranger to the dating world. Sure I have had a few serious relationships here and there, but lets not forget some of the most terrible nights or weeks I spent spending time with certain guys. Allow me to share some of the funny, annoying, and heartbreaking stories of mine. Let me remind you that not all of these fellas ended up being boyfriends. Some were just dates and dear Lord, some were just big fat mistakes! The Confused Runner Lets go back to my very first date ever... I was 15 years old and crazy about this boy from another school whom I met while running track and cross country. He was taking me to a movie. I remember I wore this God awful, brown and gold glitter top with dark jeans and brown tie shoes and my majo
