Hey rockstars, It is Friday evening in this nation’s capital and I am typing this while at work (hmmm, 8:10pm). I think I’m the only person left in the office because everyone else went home or to their Friday night glamorous plans. My plans include going home to my apartment, picking up my dress and…

The 31st “Happy Sandhya Day”
Happy March, rockstars!! So yesterday was my 31st birthday, and seriously, 31 sounds like a really serious type of number. It feels even more serious when you realize that “turning 31” means that you have completed 31 trips around the sun, so really this is me starting my thirty-second round… So every year I do…
I am meant to…
Hey rockstars, It’s been a whirlwind of a week, with lots of highs-highs (one of my close friends got married this weekend to the love of her life!!) and lots of low-lows (I’m livid at the state of the world and annoyed that journalistic integrity is taking such a horrible hit). On Friday night I…
The Law of Conservation of Hope
Hey rockstars, I hope you’ve all been well. A few updates from me. Since it’s LinkedIn official, I guess I can make it official here too: I’ve started my MBA and I’m super excited about it. I’ll only be doing it part-time, and I started 2 weeks ago and love it so far. Second, some…
Time Passes but Kind People Remain
Hey rockstars, To everyone affected by this latest snowstorm: I hope you’re staying safe and warm. Yesterday I went to my friend Cait’s wedding in Philly! Cait was one of my best friends when we both went to Drexel for our first year of law school. I ended up leaving to move to DC but…
Forever a Child
Hey rockstars, So I wrote this blog post last night, but then promptly fell asleep before I could upload it. So oops. Anyway, earlier this week Katie and I realized we are massively overdue for BFF time, so we decided to get sushi from this place we’ve always admired from afar. Everyone in this sushi…
“Stay Closer to Things that Make you Feel Better”
Hey rockstars, I’ve been wanting to blog for a while now. I always have these half-formed ideas that hit me while driving, in the shower, or in the middle of a task. I tell myself, “Oh my god, this is it! I’m going to blog about this”—and then I promptly forget it. But right now,…
Tuesday Check-in: Blooms and A Check In from My Corner of the World
Hey rockstars, Happy Tuesday! As 2025 comes to a close, it’s time to take a breath and do a little inventory of our lives. So this past weekend I had a phone conversation about being confident and happy. It’s funny because whenever someone says I’m confident, I don’t really believe them? But I do know…
Do not ask me: “What do you do?”
“So, what do you do?” They expect me to talk about my profession and my source of income. They expect me to name my job and career as if it explains my entire identity. And I, like a fool, give them exactly what they’re looking for: “Oh, I’m a lawyer!” But what I really want…
Rent-Free Poem Week (Rogue Two): Bookmark Near the End
Hey heartbreakers, In addition to my weeks of rent-free poem week, I did a standalone post a little while back, called “Like I Would an Old Friend” because I had been inspired to write but was out of tune with the week. This post is similar — rent-free poem week is over — hence Rogue…
