Honestly, I'm surprised that I didn't forget about this blog. If you're reading this, THANK YOU. I really appreciate anyone who takes the time out of their day to visit this 5 year old, dusty, crusty blog that I was supposed to be consistently nurturing and updating at least weekly. OBViously, lots has happened since … Continue reading Hello… it’s me.

A thought about consent while dating:
So sorry, this is just a thought I had while watching Bachelor in Paradise: It’s interesting how when men give unwanted attention to women (and other men), it’s seen as “consistent” and “bold” and you’re told that “he just really likes you” but if a woman were to do it, it’s seen as “psychotic”. And … Continue reading A thought about consent while dating:
A raw but short commentary on the last episode of YOU:
*This lowkey could be a spoiler alert for YOU but probably not. Okay, so, as much as I despise this show right now (a talk for another day), YOU does have a few (I counted four in the last episode alone) pretty good lessons to be learned: Love doesn’t hurt; it doesn’t make you want … Continue reading A raw but short commentary on the last episode of YOU:
The meaning of my tattoos:
Before I got my first tattoo about two years ago, I never imagined that I would ever want one. Since then, I've gotten five more. I got most of my tattoos as little reminders to myself but I do have light-hearted ones (well, one), as well. In this post, I'd like to share the meanings … Continue reading The meaning of my tattoos:
More getting to know me: Song Edition.
Lately, I've had a few things that I've been wanting to write about but I just can't seem to get them out. So I've decided that when this happens, I'll just share random things about me until: 1. You know everything about me. 2. You just get sick of me and email me personally to … Continue reading More getting to know me: Song Edition.
“What’s up, do you plan on eating today?”
Being home for the holidays has made me both happy and a little sad. I love being around the people that I love and who have always been there for me. However, I've also been feeling like I'm slowly slipping into another depressive episode. Yesterday, all I wanted to do was sleep, and for the … Continue reading “What’s up, do you plan on eating today?”

1/2/2018: today was a day.
Well, today started out super productive... but kind of went downhill from there (it's not necessarily a bad thing, though). I woke up this morning at 4:45 to get ready for a 5:00 run. I was kinda exhausted because of a dream I'd had but nonetheless, I made my bed, washed my face, and brushed … Continue reading 1/2/2018: today was a day.
1/1/2018, cont’d.
Hi again! I figured I'd make a short blog post for the second time today because, well, I want to share everything that makes me happy and excited with you all. And I don't want to let those moments slip away. I'm currently watching Demi Lovato: Simply Complicated for about the thousandth time since it's … Continue reading 1/1/2018, cont’d.
1/1/2018: an introduction.
Let's get right to it, then. So I recently went to an astrologist who basically told me about myself, the good and the bad, in the most softly objective way possible. What I got from that sitting was that I'm a way too caring person who doesn't take enough time for herself and values relationships … Continue reading 1/1/2018: an introduction.
