Ammryn's Adventures

    Have you ever heard of work-life balance? For t hese past couple of weeks, I have experienced what people say about work-life balance. These past couple of weeks have been busy for me in academics, organizations, and my social life as well. With everything that I do on campus including being in two executive positions, having two jobs on campus and trying to balance my life with academics plus social life. Not going to lie if you were to ask me how my semester was going a few weeks ago I wouldn't have been able to tell you. In just those couple of weeks, I felt very overwhelmed by assignments, classes, social life, and organizations. I got to the point when I felt so stressed that I woke up every morning feeling exhausted because of how stressed I was.       You're probably thinking when do you sleep or how did you deal with the stress? Well, the answer is simple I looked for support in all the activities that I am involved in. I talked with some of my friends and some of m

     Have you ever tried different drinks at your favorite coffee shop or especially at Starbucks? Or try a new flavor when they have their seasonal drink menus up? I know do! Whenever the seasons change or just in general when I am doing a Starbucks run I am always thinking about trying a new drink. Right now, the Starbucks that I use are selling their Fall drinks which I know everyone on campus loves. I have been interested in trying the Pumpkin Spice Latte but I am afraid of what it is going to taste like. If you have ever tried the drink, what do you think it tastes like? I have recently tried their Apple Crisp Latte however if you ever had that drink, you know how strong the apple syrup is at the bottom plus it is a weird mixture of a drink, but I enjoy the smell of it!      As of right now, the drink that I am getting is the Caramel Macchiato which is so good if you ever had it! I switch up the ingredients a bit since I don't prefer everything in the drink. In the Caramel Mac

     Have you heard about the new movie called Elemental? I heard of it when it was in theaters but didn't watch the trailer. When I saw it on Disney+ I knew I had to watch it! I was talking with my friend about it, and she was always interested in watching the movie it was cheesy but it was moving!    The movie was based on the director Peter Sohn's childhood growing up in an ethnic family and his family's immigration story to the United States. In the movie, there are different elements such as earth, wind, fire, and water. In the movie, the story is about a fire element named Ember and how her family moved from their homeland to a different place to call home in Element City. Throughout the movie, it shows how Ember's family works hard to make their own life and business in Element City. Including Ember's father going to give the business to Ember in the future when she is ready. Ember has a temper and is learning how to connect with customers in the business but

     Being a college student, being in many organizations, and having multiple jobs on campus. A few people have asked me how I manage my time, how do I stay organized, and how do you make time for myself? My response is that I have a planner! You probably think I have one, but I have multiple planners because of how many tasks I have to juggle in one day, week, or month.       But if you are as busy as a bee and feel like you run around in circles every day like I feel! Hopefully, some of these tips that I am about to give can help you feel more in control of your day and make it less stressful! 1. Get a planner!      I found having a planner whether it is a Google calendar or an agenda to track your work. I found it helpful to find or have as many calendars as possible that help you feel that you relieve some stress. I have a whiteboard calendar to write down any doctor appointments, meetings, and work, another one is my academic agenda for all my schoolwork, and my Google calendar t
