Postcards from// Sunset Walks

May 21, 2015

So I’m a bit behind (I promise to update about everything soon!!) but I’m back home and have bene enjoying the post-grad life. AKA I’ve sat on the couch for the past day and a half watching the Food Network with my cat sitting on my lap–so basically it’s been a lazy gal’s heaven.

I have, however, taken breaks from my lazy endeavors on the couch to spend time outside walking the dogs or just to enjoy the sun by the pool. Because I particularly enjoy bothering my friends and family by stopping every few seconds to take pictures that I like to pretend are very artsy, here are a few of my favorites from our last sunset walk down the block!

Wild Olive Cucina

December 13, 2014

While back home for Thanksgiving, dad and I went to dinner at one of my favorite restaurants on Johns Island, Wild Olive Cucina. We first dined at Wild Olive three summers ago and I’ve been in love with the menu ever since. The cuisine is simple and seasonal, while staying true to its Italian roots. Wild Olive is also a ‘Certified Green Restaurant’ (the first of which in South Carolina!), and not only do they buy the majority of their produce and meats locally but they also compost 85% of their compost. So awesome!! So not only is the food heavenly but also environmentally friendly, every Environmental Studies minor’s dream restaurant.

College Life Lately

Started from the bottom now…….. we’re seniors??

August 30, 2014

I remember being in the eighth grade and thinking that I was the big man on campus. And now eight years later, I’ve somehow found myself in the same situation now that I’m officially a senior. Classes at Wake started this past Tuesday and I moved into my apartment last weekend, which is so crazy because it feels like I just moved in for my freshman year.

Downtown Girls

July 25, 2014

The past few days at home have been exactly what I needed—peaceful, relaxing and sunny beyond compare. And it’s hard to complain when there’s air conditioning involved (I still don’t understand how Londoners survive the summer heat). I’ve spent most of my time either at the beach or in my bed, battling my jet-lag so that I don’t take 4 hour naps in the middle in the afternoon. Being reunited with my family and pets has been wonderful; I always forget how much of a homebody I am until I’m away for extended periods of time.
