The first time I donated money to the Red Cross was after Hurricane Katrina. I wanted to make sure the money would really get to the victims!

I’ve been fortunate enough to fly first class a couple of times over the years. You get leather seats, more space, better service, free snacks and stuff… the list goes on. It’s pretty cool but only if you really have the money to afford it or if you’ve got a really long flight. For standard, run of the mill travel, save your money and stay at a nice hotel or go to a five-star restaurant. Seriously!
My fourth year of college turned out to be way more stressful than I ever expected. When Christmas rolled around, I knew exactly what I wanted – a spa day with fabulous treatments I either couldn’t afford or would never spend the money on myself. My mom took me to the Four Seasons! We both had manicures, pedicures, facials, and massages and I had a wrap. The massage was amazing! I don’t think I even knew how tense my body was until I felt how relaxed it was when we left. Massages are great!
