    See The World

    what I learned from my semester abroad I recently got home from my three-month study abroad semester in Switzerland, and I’ve been asked by friends and family upon returning: “How was the trip?” Our professor once told us we’d have thirty seconds of their attention before they stopped really caring, so make your response worth…

  • Joy Isn’t Temporary

    a reminder not to rush life nor wish for it to stay still We have a fear that nothing will be as good as yesterday. At least I know I have that fear. Since being in college, it seems like every year gets better. I meet more people, I get more involved on my campus,…

  • The Guilt of Growing Up

    an apology to those I’ve lost touch with, and also myself. It’s evidently obvious to me that growing up is a terrifying construct for most people. Myself included. Whether it’s mentioning to my friends the fact that we are about halfway done with college and seeing them cover their ears immediately, or watching one more…

  • Finding Beauty in the Thunder

    a story about nostalgia I’m emotional over a thunderstorm. No seriously, I’m sitting in my dorm, it’s 6:30PM on a Friday night, and when I heard the thunder growl it’s like this wave of nostalgia crashed over me. At home, when a thunderstorm rolled in, my dad could always be found in our living room,…

  • 2022

    a reflection on the year of transition This year I tried a new sport. I danced at concerts. I jumped out of a plane. I graduated. I moved to a new state. I started an internship. I started college. I transitioned into a new chapter. Phew. Seems like a lot when I write it all…

  • Growing Pains

    my thoughts on adjustment + change Hello blog, long time no see. Today I am reporting to you from Blacksburg, Virginia. Yes! I am a college girl now! I’ve been here for about a month and a half. I’ve met some new friends, started new classes, and encountered new obstacles. The first thing I get…

  • A Love Letter To Childhood

    Eighteen years. For the last eighteen years we’ve lived a relatively routine life. Fall means school, Friday night lights, picking out your Halloween costume, and Thanksgiving break. Winter means gift giving season, basketball games, movie marathons, and Hot Chocolate. Then comes spring, warm weather peeking through while you stress over getting your grades up. Anxiously…

  • STYLE ME SERIES – MARA&MAV

    Happy Valentine’s Day! Today on the blog I have a very exciting addition to the Style Me Series…a couples version! My friends Mara and Maverick have volunteered to be MissMegs’ first couple to be styled. The theme was Valentine’s Day date night looks in honor of the holiday, and I had so much fun choosing…

  • STYLE ME SERIES – SOPHIA

    Styling others is one of my many passions. When a friend texts me to help them plan an outfit for an outing, or ask what would go best with a red blazer, I am honored. I started this little series last summer and it’s one of my favorites posts to write. I get to see…

  • Day By Day

    Hey blog, I’m back. I’ve missed ya. Seriously, I just let out a huge sigh of relief. I’ve genuinely missed writing blog posts. I didn’t write for the entire month of September and most of October. I didn’t even post on Instagram, not even a story. Normally, I’d feel guilty, like I’m letting someone down.…
