Before I was a blogger, I was first an aspiring author, and before I was an aspiring author, I was first a writer. I am still all of these things. So, naturally, when I got the opportunity to work with Prudential and think about my goals, I did it in words. Because my words are what I have. I often wonder if a person ever gets to a point in their life where they feel like they have accomplished every single thing they have ever dreamed of and life is now perfect, just as they dreamed it would Read More
Can Autotrader Make My Drive Drivetastic?
Ladies and gentlemen, this past Sunday in church, Igwe and I were just stepping out of the car in the parking lot when I noticed another couple parked two cars from us also stepping out of their car. It was not really the couple that got my attention; it was their car! They had a sky blue Volkswagen Beetle Bug. Oh. My. God. Like Stannis Baratheon, I'm a practical person (although I wouldn't sacrifice my son for the throne). If you don't know who Stannis Baratheon is, then we need to Read More
What Do You Think Of When You Hear Monistat?
If you're like me, then you think of yeast infections. Because after all, when it comes to the treatment of yeast infections, Monistat® is all I ever hear of.

I already talked about the DOPE movie the other day and how it reminds me of my own coming of age. But, but, but can we also talk about the looks in the DOPE movie and how it reminds "us" of our upbringing? If you grew up in the 90s, you'd watch this movie and have all kinds of flashbacks. And before you know it, you're spotting a skater dress and an accent braid. Oh, and jelly sandals, too. Because why not? And because 90s kids (and style) are the coolest. Although the movie is set in Read More
2015 Summer Is Vera’s Summer To Discover It!
When it comes to travel, photography, and being anal, my mommy is my muse. My mom is a world traveler. She has always loved traveling (and taking pictures everywhere). When she tells me of places she's been to and things she seen and done, I'm always so jealous because I have been a late bloomer. I am still catching up on discovering places, and there is so much to discover! In the United States alone, there are 50 States, and I have been living in one for 15 years. It's not that I am in the Read More
