What now?

After a month or so since my last post, I've finally narrowed down on what I would blog about. Thanks to my Facebook friends, who have known me for years and years, I'm  blogging about books, traveling and food. I might post about topics not listed because I don't really have money to travel often …

Brand new year

Hey, guys! It's been a while since I posted something  on here and I have a great reason why: I wanted to change what my blog is about. I wasn't that into writing about my newfound independence since my moving to college. I mean, I'm growing, constantly changing, but I wanted to focus on other …

Harry Potter and how it taught me to grow up

Take some time off

Responsible people have busy schedules. They’re typically juggling work, home and/ or school. So with that, it’s pretty rare to have free time to relax and enjoy a day free of chores/ tasks. As a full-time college student with a part-time job, it’s a must to plan a relaxation day. According to an article written …

(Finally) On My Own

It took 20 minutes to say goodbye to my parents. I’ve already said my goodbyes to my brother and sister back home. My mother sat in the passenger seat of the black Sequoia, holding my hand and saying, “Behave, ok? Call me every night.” I would tell her that yes I will call her and …

A little about me

Hey, everyone!   I am Klarizza and I wanted to make a short and sweet introduction about who I am and why I started this blog. I'm majoring in journalism at the wonderful University of Florida. #GoGators! I have a tendency to buy more books than I could read. Cooking and food are two of …
