I'm a journalism graduate looking to start my career as a writer or an editor. Currently, I'm enjoying my hobbies, spending time with my cat, and blogging about things I'm passionate about.

What To Do if Your Plants Have Fungus Gnats

Over the past few years, I've developed a decent-sized plant collection. I started out with cactuses and succulents and eventually expanded to tropical plants. Going from having plants that rarely need to be watered to ones that actually need consistent watering has been a struggle for me. I'm always worried about my plants drying out and dying, so I end up giving them too much water. As a chronic overwater-er, my house is a fungus gnat's dream.

Every Disney Princess Ranked From Least to Most Sheltered

I like to watch familiar movies to help me fall asleep, and I've been watching a ton of Disney movies lately. ​I grew up watching Disney princess movies, and I still love them. When I was a kid, I just enjoyed the pretty dresses, fun songs, and inspiring plots. I still enjoy those things, but recently, I've thought more deeply about these movies while lying awake at night, and I've noticed a common trend: most of the princesses are very sheltered and naive about the world around them. ​

​A Very Large Expanse of Sea Review

​I had a very hard time putting this book down. The story is compelling, and Mafi’s writing is as beautiful as ever.
​
​A Very Large Expanse of Sea is a YA romance novel, but not a typical one. It focuses on real social issues and has a main character unlike one you’d typically hear from. Shirin is a 16-year-old Muslim girl starting at a new school in 2002. Islamophobia is at an all-time high post 9/11 America, but it’s nothing new for a hijabi like Shirin.
