Hello! Thank you for visiting my page. I started this blog because so many people asked me multiple times how to do the same things – hair routines, making extra money while in graduate school and other cool life hacks. I decided to share the knowledge that I spent hours upon hours researching with everyone who may (or may not) be in the same boat as I.
A little about me:
My name is Asia and I’m a 23 year old Capricorn.. I grew up in a military family, moving from state to state (and a couple of different countries) just about every year of my childhood. I was born in North Carolina, lived in every state from Georgia to New Jersey, and graduated high school in Delaware. I received a Bachelors Degree in Psychology from Virginia State University in 2013. I’m currently located in Baltimore, Maryland working towards a Masters Degree in Applied Psychology.
My parents raised me to be very independent. With that being said, I’m known for balancing 3 and 4 jobs at a time while still going to school full-time. I did it all throughout undergrad, and my first year of graduate school as well. When I realized I was killing myself trying to balance working full-time to take care of myself and live comfortably while also pursuing a masters degree full-time, I put my ‘comfortable lifestyle’ on hold and went back to living like a student! This transition took a damper on me mentally, physically and most of all financially – but it’s a sacrifice you make to get where you want to be! I hope that this blog will provide insight, hope and motivation to others also making the ‘grad school sacrifice’ while also trying to embrace being a natural black woman!
