Another year has come and gone and I still haven’t made a resolution. I’m not usually one for resolutions, seeing that the majority of people give up within the first two weeks into the new year. Instead, I want to set aside five goals for the year – five things I want to (and know I can) accomplish.
It’s that time of year again. Where college students across the nation attempt to cram all of the information they should have learned through out the semester. Where college students forgo sleep in an attempt to use all of their remaining time before their demise. Where college students flock to the library to try to find the best study table like people fighting over electronics during a Black Friday sale.
In my almost four years of college, I think I’m starting to turn into a “common white girl.” I also dressed up as one for Halloween – the costume was a hit, so I guess I did it right!

My old roommate (who is also Punjabi, woot!) and I were planning on getting a triple with her sister, but the dorm was being bleh and it didn’t work out. We still see each other at least once a week and I can say that she is my best friend and basically my sister.
Story Time is a series documenting the funny/crazy things happen to me. All stories are real. Please enjoy the awkwardness that is my day-to-day life. This is the first post in this series.
Now if you know me, you know that I tend to put myself into awkward situations. A lot. Sometimes I don’t even try to, it just happens. This is one of those times.
