Hello There! For as long as I can remember, I’ve been “Bee”. Sometimes I’m Brit, Brittany when I’m in trouble, but always Bee. Allow me to reintroduce myself, I’m Brittany Bee. For many years, I felt like I had nothing good to say. So I let this blog drift off into the darkest corners of […]

Packing Panic (?)

Things change quickly. Sometimes more quickly than we can process immediately. Here’s a fun fact for you: 96 hours ago I wasn’t moving. 96 hours ago, I was sitting on a stool, reading a book. Then the phone rang. In ten minutes on my phone, it was decided that I’m moving. So here I sit, […]

Post-Graduation Confusion

“Send” Button Anxiety

You click the “send” button. Suddenly your temperature spikes and there is a butterfly riot in your stomach. Anxiety. We all know that feeling. I recently sent off a couple of emails, in hopes of getting an interview. I know what you’re thinking, that doesn’t sound so bad…right? A few things I have learned from […]

Being Different

Remember your first college class? It’s the same drill every time: name, major, something interesting about yourself. So let me guess, your name is _____.
