I am old. Not really, but I have entered a new decade! Monday was my birthday and to be honest, I was not super excited about it. I wasn’t feeling that well, I have a lot of papers and projects coming up, I had an exam, and I had activities that I enjoy, but that would …

The First Snowfall of the Year!
Whether we like it or not, Mother Nature made an appearance to Holland and the greater West Michigan area. The snow is here folks, and it’s here to stay until the spring. People have and will continue to complain about, and some people will obsess over it, but as for myself, I’m in the middle. …
Stop and Listen.
Here’s where my mind has been for a while: Homework, vocal chord nodules, papers, bank accounts, and earth: 1. Kathryn: 0. As I am writing this, I just thought of another thing I have to do for tomorrow that I had forgotten about until now, and I said to myself, where is this blog post …
