It's a strange phenomenon mourning the life you knew, when you weren't even in a good place. In How I Met Your Mother, they called it "graduation goggles". But it's not that I am looking back fondly on a situation that was hard. Trust me! I remember every single thing I complained about, and so… Continue reading Mourning the Life I didn’t even enjoy

weekend Bach Trip
Who's ready for another itinerary? Now I know there are plenty of these out there, especially because it is for the bachelorette capital of the world. But I've already put in the work, so please enjoy the fruits of my labor: Plans for a 3 night 4ish day trip to Nashville, TN + costs. These… Continue reading weekend Bach Trip
hi
It's been a while, a lot has changed... and yet nothing at all.
I Have Read the End
I have always been someone who didn’t mind spoilers. Especially those that were about the end. It may be why I flourish in learning history, I know the ending but It doesn’t mean I don’t want to know how we got there. I like having a good plot twist and surprise but I’m actually more… Continue reading I Have Read the End
Make Your Bed
You've probably heard this piece of advice (or command) a lot in your life. I have definitely heard many Youtubers suggest it, articles stating it, blogs just like this one, and maybe even seen the video of the Navy Seal Admiral. I really don't have MORE to add to what has been said about it… Continue reading Make Your Bed
Is this Adulting?
I recently turned 25 and that means that for 10 years I have been driving, paying for my own gas, and working. I've paid for my own food for 7 years I added paying for my own groceries, fun, and luxuries (if I wanted an expensive item I had to save up for it such… Continue reading Is this Adulting?
Budgets After Vacation
Last week, I went on vacation! It was an amazing 9 day trip back home with my family that allowed me to come back home well rested, with a lovely tan, and ready to make magic again. I also was gifted with a paycheck with a big fat ZERO on it from not working at… Continue reading Budgets After Vacation
Finally, a New Car
When I was 17 I gave my mom two thousand of my hard earned lifeguarding dollars to put toward buying my little red car that would later be named Bieber. My parents helped me buy the rest of it and I was mobile! Bieber as a baby. He was a 2007 with push down locks,… Continue reading Finally, a New Car
Wanted: A Godly Husband
Dating as a 20 something in 2019 is weird. We are all trying to maintain our looks and our social life while simultaneously growing our professional lives--oh and try to get some sleep in there too. Whether you've dated a lot before now or not one thing is certain... if you're trying to find a… Continue reading Wanted: A Godly Husband
Cooking for 1?
It has taken me a long time to realize, or at least admit, that most of my strong feelings revolve around food. For example I feel strongly that: breadcrumbs don't belong on mac and cheese, sweet tea doesn't need lemon, tacos should come on corn tortillas with a lot of cilantro, there are moods for… Continue reading Cooking for 1?
Bullet Journal- a cry for help
I am an incredibly creative person always looking for a new outlet for my creative energy. I love music, art (though I am not the best at drawing), photography, design (I was the 10 yr old watching HGTV), and writing (obviously). I am also a very organized person! If you have looked around my website… Continue reading Bullet Journal- a cry for help
Dear Diary,
June sometime 2018, "So I am going to be 24 in just over a month... I haven't figured out what this means yet but I have come to the realization I have to now start "being an adult". And the only thing I'm sure "being an adult" means is paying for my own stuff. So… Continue reading Dear Diary,
