If we were having coffee this month I’d tell you I haven’t been blogging that much because I haven’t been feeling any overcomplicated feelings lately. And we all know most of my blogs consist of me just wordvomiting my problems into a post. But I do miss it, and miss interacting with other bloggers, but…

September In Photos
I love the feeling that September brings! The month gives you time to say goodbye to summer and welcome in fall. Here’s my month in photos!
Maybe It’s Not Me
I’m a self-proclaimed introvert and have been for many years. I’m an introvert mostly due to the fact that I feel drained after spending time with other people and I need time to recharge after interactions. I’m not an introvert because I don’t like people and I’d rather be alone. In the last couple of…
Yes, It’s True, I Don’t Want Kids
When I say I don't want kids, everyone says: "you'll change your mind!" or "you're still young!" or "are you sure?" Yes, I'm sure. It's one of the first things I told my fiancé when we first started dating and reminded him of almost monthly to make sure he was okay with it too. Because…
Revisiting My Word of 2022
In January I designated my word of the year as growth. I chose this word because I finally felt like I was in a position to put down roots and expand on myself. We’re over halfway through the year and I only feel like I’ve grown in one aspect of my life. Most of my…

Reverse Bucket List – Part 2
So often we’re caught up in the things we want to do, but don’t stop to look back at what we’ve already done. Last year, I published Part 1 of my reverse bucket list to pat myself on the back for things I’ve done in my life. Here’s part 2 of sort of once-in-a-lifetime things…
Seeing Everything As Temporary
I’m a pessimist. Not because I see the world as only bad, even though it seems that way a lot of the time. But I’m a pessimist because I always expect the worst - that way I’m rarely ever disappointed. I don’t like to get my hopes up just to be let down. It’s happened…
Being Happier With Yourself – Part 1
It’s a hard pill to swallow, but sometimes the problem is you. I’ve been struggling with overall happiness in multiple aspects in my life lately, having trouble filling my buckets and spending time where it needs to be spent. At the root of that problem is me. I haven’t been taking care of my health,…
Growing Up And Apart
I admire people who have known each other for years and years and years and still consider themselves close. Growing together isn’t really an easy thing to do. I’ve learned over the past 6 years of my current relationship, that it’s necessary for a successful relationship. And it’s a great thing! While we all go…
