How to Date Without Breaking the Bank
Welcome to the first entry of "How to Date Without Breaking the Bank." As we all know, dating can be hard and expensive. Dating in DC can be expensive if you’re trying to have an eventful outing.

How to Truly Compromise
"I hate the fact that people think 'compromise' is a dirty word."- Barbara Bush Comprising can be a difficult thing, especially when you've worked so hard to make up your mind and validate your opinion. Compromising with a loved one is easier, but can still lead to arguments and feeling like one of you hadn't gotten what they wanted.

Kindness =/= Weakness
I’ve been the nice person all my life. I can’t help it. My mother is this way, my grandma was this way, and I’m pretty sure every woman on my mother’s side was or is this way. It’s in my blood. I grew up with friends from all different cliques and groups because I was always an approachable person. I don’t think I could be an asshole even if I tried.

How to Spot a False Friend
A false friend pretends to have interest. They walk up to you first, demanding friendship. In high school, I simply made better friends after that, I hung out with kids from my old school more than kids from St. Francis. Finding better friends is really easy, spotting a bully or manipulator is also easy. You have no idea that the manipulator will go for it because they are skilled at hiding themselves. They pretend to befriend you but really this is because they want to figure out how to manipulate you. One such bully was manipulating me into throwing out my lunch freshman year.

How I Escaped My Comfort Zone
After coming home from family vacation, I found myself struggling to be excited about the last two weeks of summer. Normally as a student I hold on to that precious chunk of time before school starts to catch up with friends or to cram in every activity on the "Summer To Do List" I make each year but never complete. But this year I'm in a different situation. With university coming up and the realization that a part time job may no longer be possible to juggle, stress has hit me hard.

Long Distance Relationships
1. Text or call whenever you are able to. That doesn’t mean that you have to spend 24/7 talking on the phone (even though that’s somewhat what I did), but at the same time you have to have time for yourself and your partner must have time of their own as well, even though you may not see that now.
