The following post is written by EJ. She is a frequent contributor and Social Sharkette. EJ got her start in writing in 1997, when she excelled in her 6th grade creative writing class. From there, she went on to pen numerous Bat Mitzvah thank you notes. EJ attended Michigan State University, where she wrote many essays about books she did not thoroughly read. In her free time, EJ enjoys cupcake window shopping, sarcasm, Trader Joe's, the anticipation of being seated next to a hot guy on an airplane, and buying overpriced workout apparel.
