I'm Back Home... | My Last Few Days in Italy, Post-Study Abroad Depression, Getting Back Into Routine
As you can tell by the title, I am back home. Officially. Once again. After an entire month. Of living a literal dream. I don’t know how to feel about it honestly. I’m excited because I get to see all of my friends and I can get back into a normal routine and NOT TAKE ANY CLASSES FOR A COUPLE WEEKS. But then I’m also gonna miss that Italy weather and being able to go to a different country every week and eating gelato. I don’t know; there’s a give and take for everything. Now, if you’re a little confused right now as to what’s going on, I studied abroad in Florence, Italy for the past month of June. I took a Global Brand Management course where I had classes four days a week (quite frankly don’t even know how I survived that) and on the weekends, I would try to explore the city, explore Italy, explore other countries, you get the picture. Tune in to hear about my last few days studying abroad!

I Spent 48 Hours in Switzerland and Here's How It Went...
Soooo, I went to Switzerland...You may be thinking, of all places, Switzerland????? Yes, hear me out lol. I actually have a cousin who lives in Switzerland and before I even went on this trip, my father kept telling me that I HAD to visit her. I mean, think about it, when am I ever going to be this close to her again? So, I took the opportunity. I told my dad to give me her phone number, which he did, and I called her up. I asked her if I could visit and she said that she and her husband would love to have me. Don’t get me wrong I was super excited to visit her, but I immediately thought to myself ‘free housing!!’ Idk maybe it’s just the broke college student in me talking… Anyways, tune in to the full episode for more on my Switzerland adventure!Let's stay connected: https://linktr.ee/atallgirlspodcast Leave a review and let me know how tall you are: https://atallgirlspodcast.com/reviews

A Weekend Abroad | 24 Hours in Paris, Day Trip to Venice, Got Catcalled at McDonald’s??
As you can tell by the title, I’ve had quite the weekend. But before I get into that, I just wanna share that I finished my midterms not too long ago?? I’m halfway through this program?? ALREADY????? (just for context, I'm currently studying abroad in Italy for the month of June) I’m sad but not too sad, if that even makes any sense. I like being able to travel to different places, take this class, and meet new people, but I also like having my own kitchen, not waking up early to go to class, and seeing my friends back home. I just don’t know how to feel about that. On the other hand, I got a 98 on my first paper! So I’m so glad about that. I’m hoping that I can get the same grade on my midterm exam. Spoiler alert: I didn't aHa, but it was still a good grade! Tune in to find out how I celebrated!Let's stay connected: https://linktr.ee/atallgirlspodcast Leave a review and let me know how tall you are: https://atallgirlspodcast.com/reviews

I’m in Italy??
I’m just gonna cut to the chase; as you can tell by the title, I am in Italy. Like right now. Like physically in Italy. What the heck???? This is so unreal. But I’m not here to vacation though (unfortunately). I’m here to study abroad at one of the universities and I’m taking a Global Brand Management course. And this course credit transfers back to my school, so it will indeed impact my GPA. Meaning, I need to be on my grind lol. So, what's been happening the past couple of days?? Tune in to this episode to find out!! Also, a little sidenote, I completely butchered the name of a garden I visited lol. I kept saying Bobogoli Garden when it's really Boboli Garden. Oopsie. Hopefully, Italian natives don't listen to this episode ahA Let's stay connected: https://linktr.ee/atallgirlspodcast Leave a review and let me know how tall you are: https://atallgirlspodcast.com/reviews

Growing (Literally and Figuratively) Can Be Scary...
A few days ago, I visited my high school. Again. Yes, I’m one of those who, even after 3 years, still visit their high school. But what can I say? Even though a lot of bad, borderline traumatic events happened there, I still consider it my safe space…for the most part. When I’m in the right offices with the right teacher(s) and right staff, I feel better. But anyways, it was during this visit to my high school that I had some kind of revelation. It really hit me that I'm GROWING UP. These teachers have seen me when I was 15, 16, 17, and even 18, and now all of a sudden I'm 21???? HOW does that even work? Am I ready to start truly adulting? Am I doing enough? Am I doing too much? I don't even know what's going on lmfao.

Can We Go Back To Doing Things For The Plot?
Let's face it...we all get scared to do things. Especially the big things. The things that are outside of our comfort zone. And I'm right there with ya. Now that summer's here (sun's out, buns out ahA), there a lot of changes that are coming my way and boy, am I TERRIFIED. I genuinely can't stop thinking to myself "what if I fail?" or "what if I look stupid?" and it's so overwhelming dude. But something that really calms me down is saying "it's for the plot." Yes. As DUMB as it sounds. I gotta keep telling myself that it's just for the plot lol. So are we doing this for the plot together? Tune in and we'll see ;)Let's stay connected: https://linktr.ee/atallgirlspodcast Leave a review and let me know how tall you are: https://atallgirlspodcast.com/reviews

Alright y'all, I made someone mad. Not like MAD mad. Just aggravated, agitated, irritated.I didn't even do it intentionally :/So, you know how you’re in a group of people and you vibe with most of them (aka you’re cool with them), but there’s just that one person or those 2 people that are a little sus? Like every time you talk, breathe, or exist, they just seem irritated? That’s exactly what happened here.
