What Came Across My Desk This Week

Identical twin sisters announce they are both pregnant with identical twin brothers — hey, to each their own. So, I guess these couples met at a twin event, fell in love, got married together (was filmed for cable TV), live together, and are now pregnant together. I don’t know; this seems like a lot to me. I would have to assume there’s a lot of confusion and frustration living with two sets of twins in the same house, but maybe I’m wrong. Interesting read.

Signs of Deep Love — Ok, so I think this exists in romantic relationships and in friendships as well. We all shoot for our romantic relationships to be a deep connection with “deep love” but physicality aside, you can have this kind of love with your friends as well. Check out the characteristics of a deep love relationship and let me know what you think.

My Writing:

A Kid Can Dream: Coming out of the Pen — As a kid, I always had this dream growing up of making it to the big leagues. The same dream would play over and over; here is a look into that dream.

How to Be Human: A Series — An updated introduction to the How to Be Human Series This is everything you need to know about the direction of the blog.

How to Be Human: What Does it Mean to Be Human? — It’s finally here! Story one is out. This piece sets the stage for the remainder of the rest of the series. We need to establish what are some of the key characteristics of being human to start a discussion.

From the EventHub Marketing Department: A Look into the Marketing Internship Program — Our summer internship program is over. Our interns killed it this summer. Here is their reflection on what they learned!

New Music Friday — 8/14 — Wasn’t the best N.M.F., so we made up with it with some old tracks that still bang.

Things that make me smile — Sometimes, you need to write down a list of things that make you smile. It felt good to sit back and reflect on all of the things that regularly make me smile. Life is good!

PUNK ROCK IS BACK

It just is. Get with it. I never stopped being angsty, so this gives me a great reason to act angsty again. I could not be more excited that there is a lot of new punk rock coming out here soon. I will have more on this, I promise.

The Week Ahead

This week is the final week of the 30 posts in 30 days challenge. Honestly, thank god. It has been tough to put out content consistently. There were days when I struggled to get anything out there. There will be a couple of reflections and lessons on that this week. That aside, we will be migrating the blog this week. I want the blog to be solely focused on ideas surrounding the theme of the How to Be Human Series. More on this soon.

Let’s have a great week. The summer is coming to an end faster than I anticipated. Make the most of it while you can!
