my stumbles through life with ms

Today, as I was searching through degree maps and generally planning out the next couple of semesters, a thought struck me that hasn’t in a while. Who am I? Not in that spooky existential way – that I don’t have time or brain capacity to discuss in ten lifetimes. Life…

Hey guys! I’m really excited that I’m actually getting a post out the day I plan to – here is my second installment in ‘Friday Feelings’, actually on a Friday this time! This week, I’m feeling a million things, but most of all, I’m grateful. The past couple of weeks…
