You Are Enough.

You Are Enough.

By Nailah on June 13, 2011

I am constantly battling the syndrome of “Not Enough.” I’m that girl who is juggling bowling pins while balancing spinning plates on her nose and still feels like a slacker. Right now I’m a wife, a daughter & little sister, a best friend, a coach & a blogger, a Grad student, a day job worker, [...]

Air Quotes

Air Quotes

By Nailah on March 14, 2011

I slept until 9am on Saturday morning, which for someone whose eyes regularly pop open at 6am is quite a feat. I was pretty pleased with my accomplishment and so naturally I decided to tweet about it: I “slept in” until 9am this morning. Feeling refreshed! Image Credit: Szift I was about to hit update [...]

The Ugly Side of Ambition

The Ugly Side of Ambition

By Nailah on February 21, 2011

I’ve always been fiercely ambitious. It’s a part of my nature to always be looking towards the next step, the next big thing. Because of this ambition, I often take even fun hobbies and turn them into some sort of competition. If I set out to do something, I want to be the very best [...]

Happy Friday Folks! It’s been a busy week around these parts. I’ve been playing a bit of catch-up this week after my digital sabbatical last week.

Friday Wrap-up: The Happy Halloween Edition

Friday Wrap-up: The Happy Halloween Edition

By Nailah on October 29, 2010

I love Halloween. I always have and probably always will. Yes, I am that person who coordinates their costume with their spouse (we were nerds last year). I also have no problem with the whole ‘girls taking everyday, unsexy objects and turning them into slutty costumes’ phenomenon – slutty cat, slutty bumblebee, slutty stapler. It’s [...]
