Hi there. My name's Erinn. Well, lookie here. I took a good selfie for once, chose a filter in Snapchat, and saved it. Yet the longer I looked at this photo, the more I realized that it encapsulates a lot about me. My favorite physical feature is my eyes. I've never dyed my hair, and …

First Snow
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GRMf_sv-hU Well, folks, it's happened: the first snowfall of the season hit! A storm blew in yesterday and turned Manchester into a winter wonderland. We got almost 5 inches of snow in total. Now that this quick update is posted, please excuse me as I celebrate with spiked hot chocolate. Cheers!
This Is Halloween
I really like Halloween! I can’t put it up there with Thanksgiving or Christmas, just because those holidays have more personal and familial meanings to me. But Halloween is such a fun holiday. Dressing up in a costume, trick-or-treating, carving pumpkins, watching The Nightmare Before Christmas, decorating, and going to Halloween parties are things that …
Little Post of Little Things
Every day, while I’m at work, I get away from my desk, go out of the office, and take a short walk. This whole week, it’s been cool and breezy, but with sunny skies, perfect weather as summer transitions to fall. One morning, as I kissed my husband goodbye before he left for work, he …
Las Vegas
It’s taken me a few days to process the mass shooting that took place in Las Vegas this past weekend. I cannot imagine the horrors and sorrow that the victims and their families have suffered. I cannot commend enough the first responders and everyday people that risked their own lives to help and protect others. …
Fanfiction
There seem to be two types of people: those who know what fanfiction is and those who have no idea. The former type can be broken down further into two more types: those who write and/or appreciate fanfiction and those who criticize and mock it, whether they write it or not. I fall into the …
9/11
Never forget. It’s been 16 years, and everyone still remembers. Notice how I didn’t say only Americans remember. I’m sure that many people across the globe, allies and enemies of the U.S. alike, haven’t forgotten the events of September 11th, 2001. They have since changed the entire world. No one will forget it for years …
You’re an All-Star
I believe it says a lot that a band like Smash Mouth is still relevant in 2017. Granted, they released their last studio album as recently as 2012, but in only 5 years’ time, they’ve become known for something other than their music. Much like Nickelback, Smash Mouth have now become a big joke. They …
Harry Potter
Everyone celebrated the 20th anniversary of the Harry Potter book series over a month ago, and the actual character turned 37 years old over a week ago, so I'm definitely late to both parties. But better late than never, right? And hey, I just realized that I'm actually super early for the 16th anniversary of the …
Music In Media
Oh, where to begin with this post? I'll try not to gush too much, and it's going to be very difficult. So here we go! Uh, I love music. I love it a lot and need it in my life every single day. But I think I love it best when it's used for movies …
