Over the course of this assignment with the blogs posted to my website I learned so much about what really goes into blog posts and writing engaging blogs about my topic. To begin with I didn’t really think that it would be hard to write on the topic because it is cooking as a college student, but when I actually sat down to write them I realized that it is hard to make a compelling blog that people would want to read about. It was hard to come up with ideas that will catch p

Let me start by saying this: I did not come to college knowing how to cook. Like at all. My idea of “making a meal” was microwaving something or assembling random snacks and calling it dinner. But after spending way too much money on takeout and realizing I constantly felt tired and unfocused, I decided to at least try to learn. If I can figure it out, literally anyone can. The first thing I learned is that cooking in college is less about skill and more about survival. You a

College cooking often feels like an impossible task. Between back-to-back classes, a social life that never sleeps, and communal kitchens that frequently look like crime scenes, it is far easier to just hit "order" or live off snacks. However, eating healthy in college doesn't have to be complicated, expensive, or a total time-suck; you just need the right starter pack and a shift in perspective. The first step is gathering a few basic tools—and no, you do not need a full Pin

Growing up is a scary thing, and no one can stop it. We all kind of have to just go through the motions that come with growing up and becoming more and more independent.

It is time for us to step up and start creating our life the way we want it. Independence can be a great thing, but also

Hi my name is Kate Mulder. I am a nineteen year old girl that just moved into her first house with her roommates in college. I am from Southern California and I love the lifestyle here, and I don't see myself leaving here anytime soon. I am a big fan of wellness and movement and am working to become a pilates instructor. Moving away from home and into a house has been the best thing ever, and it is amazing to be living with your best friends. I am so excited to be a part of t

Social media has become such a rising way for influencers to get their content out. While the expertise fluctuates most influencers become popular if they are very good at cooking. Some big names that stand out to me are Nara Smith, Emily Mariko, and Ellie Teale. I would like to embody these creators as they have consistency with their content, but I would like to bring a bit more authenticity to me. They are more serious and experiences where I would like to create a platfor

For this semester my idea for my niche and basic outline for the posts that I will create is a cooking account. As a nineteen year old girl that has just moved into her first house there is a lot of learning to do with being on your own. I have always loved to eat healthy, but my expertise in the kitchen is limited. For this semester's project I will be being taught how to cook from my roommates as well as teach my viewers along the way how to cook time sensitive, easy, healt
