Breaking up with my phone in 30 days

October 13, 2020October 15, 2020 Katie

I (like most of you reading this, probably) am addicted to my phone. It’s always near me, always calling for me to check my notifications and waste my time. The thought of getting on a bus without earphones and a … Continue reading Breaking up with my phone in 30 days

The fascination with true crime

January 13, 2019January 2, 2020 Katie
