Everybody’s Doing It!

I am feeling uninspired for writing a good story, and I love reading other peoples’ 5’s lists, so I am making one of my own. Thanks, Becky! ;)

What I Was Doing 5 Years Ago

I was a junior at Northwestern College and was contemplating how to break-up with my then-boyfriend. I was still a loyal Subway Sandwich Artist trying to work my way through school.
