Preparing For Step 1
Sorry I have been MIA a bit lately, but it is for good reason...two words, Step 1. If you are a medical student, you have either already taken it or are dreading the day.

The Perfect At-Home Gel Manicure
If you know me, you know I am having a rough week if I have any form of a chip in my nail polish. Growing up, my mom always made sure our nails were either clean and polish free or had zero chips.

I still can't believe I did it, but I have zero regrets :-) I have always dreamed about my perfect wedding day, but never knew what kind of dress I wanted.
