100 Food Shea Likes
I've realize that I am a somewhat picky eater. I'm willing to try almost anything, but I can't guarantee that I'll like it. I would say about 70% of the time, I don't, which is always followed up by, “Shea, what do you like?” My initial response is, "Well, sweet potatoes, cereal..." and then I draw a blank. So, I have decided to make a list of 100 things I like to help myself and my friends. Especially me because when I go to the grocery store I never know what to buy. This way, I have a quick handy dandy list on my phone.
Overnight Oats
I came across a TikTok where a lady made overnight oats out of blended oatmeal. This reminded me of the overnight oats I use to make in high school, so I had to experiment with some recipes and thought I would share. I can’t remember the TikTok I found, but once I find it I will share the account.
Bear Cave Brewing
Location: 1201 Mainstreet, Hopkins, MN 55343
I would give the overall rating a 5.2 out of 10. It's not the best, but it is not the worst. There is a lot of different reason why they got this score. I understand that they are new, so I gave it a 5.2 and not a 4.8.
Slap in the Face
I was just slapped in the face with a healthy dose of bronchitis. I can't tell if I am lucky or unlucky because my two roommates have tested positive for Covid.
School Abroad + Weekend
Taking a whole semester of classes in 10 weeks is a little difficult, let alone doing half a semester's credit in 5 weeks is out of this world. I am taking 7.5 credits right now, which is definitely kicking my butt.
First full day in Dublin, Ireland
Today I spent the day exploring Ireland. I first checked out of my hotel and then made my way down to The Old Storehouse bar & restaurant. This is where my "free" walking tour started…
Great News!
After applying to 37 different internships and 21 interviews, I finally landed an Internship. The funny thing is the internship I got, I did not apply for it until after I got an offer.
January Collection
This is a collections of writings through out the month of January.
What is a collection? These kinds of posts are a miss-match of thought that I have collected. These are clippets of writing from study breaks, half-written posts, and random mindless typing…
Canton House Chinese Restaurant
Mellow Mushroom is a popular pizza chain around Atlanta Georgia and was founded by two Georgia Tech students in 1974. They are known for their pizza and their unique atmosphere at each restaurant. I only went to the Mellow Mushroom in downtown Atlanta, so the vibe I felt will be different if you go to another Mellow Mushroom…
I Have Accepted a Bid
Today I accepted my bid from Alpha Chi Omega! I can’t believe I just wrote that…
Indifferent About COB Process
Last week after meeting some of the girls, I was so happy and excited to go about this process, feeling like I may finally fit in somewhere, but the reality did not fully hit until I started talking to my roommates and some other girls. I realize that I will not be selected or even get a chance because my Instagram is not aesthetic or not white enough or that I am not diverse. Going through this process is self-insuring and deprecating at the same time…
The Rush of Excitment
The Rushing begins!!! Let me clear up the air. I am doing informal rushing known as COB (Continuous Open Bidding). This process usually happens in the Spring semester, when one or two sorority sisters meet you for coffee to chat for 30 min- 1 hr. To get a coffee date slot, one needs to either DM the society's Instagram, fill out google forms, or get a recommendation from a friend…
Snow Hits The Peach
What a start to the school year. We are off and running, with my first quiz being the 3rd day of class. I had a quiz in my marketing class, and while I was preparing for the quiz, I felt like I was being called out. I learned how companies market themselves to target specific people to buy their products….
2 Week Count Down
I arrived back in Atlanta yesterday which marks the countdown for winter break. I only have two and a half weeks left until I am back home. It also the start of hell week. GT uses the turn hell week when its exam week because a lot of the times a lot of professor book there exams on the same week as others and sometime even on the same day...
The Unexpected
The unexpected has happened. After high school I thought I would never find my passion for lacrosse again. I know that I loved the sport, but I also had to take into account my mental wellbeing which is why I decided to end my lacrosse career after high school. After the pandemic I was itching to be on a team again. That’s when I found Crew…
Life Update
It had just hit the middle of the semester, and the next break we have is basically winter break. I personally am not counting Thanksgiving break because it's Wednesday and Thursday, but on Friday…

Fire Ant Attack
I had a fiery start to the school year. This year I have decided that I will go to more events that are being held on campus to meet new people. I made this decision in the summer and thought I should start by going to the Sophomore social…
