I sometimes experience a stretch of days where I just feel so unhappy and hopeless. The weight of the pandemic, staying in my house, not being able to do the things I love - it all becomes too much. To the point where the days just become one and all I can do is sit…
Vaccinated!
The Evil Eye
I've taken to wearing an evil eye ring every day for the past couple of months because I've just felt like I needed extra protection. I found the ring in a thrift shop in New Hampshire this summer and it just felt like it was meant to be. I think there's something very special about…
How Realistic Is Working To Live?
Do you live to work or work to live? I swore to myself that I'd never be the kind of person who lives to work. Who thinks about their job all the time. Who misses out on life because they were too busy working. I struggle with work/life balance and to understand office culture. There…
The Matcha Showdown
Matcha isn't my go-to drink, but I do enjoy it! I saw that some of many coffee places have been promoting matcha lattes for spring, so I thought I'd give a more in-depth review. Dunkin's Blueberry Matcha Latte I was honestly surprised at the flavor of this. Sometimes Dunkin's flavor shots can have a very…
My St. Patrick’s Day Traditions
If you couldn't tell by my name, I'm Irish. Technically, half-Irish. So of course, St. Patrick's day has always held a special day in my heart. Back in college, my St. Patrick's Day traditions were probably not what you think. We always had spring break of St. Patrick's Day so usually I would go down…

Is Your Relationship Special?
A huge part of entering a new relationship is the feeling of "wow, I've never felt like this before." It's a blossoming love that doesn't compare to your old love or old relationships. That's why you wanted to commit, that's why you wanted this person to be your partner, because they are special. But are…

Buying Green Bananas
I saw a TikTok the other day (can you tell I'm obsessed with TikTok?) about a cancer patient who asked if they could still buy green bananas after their diagnosis. Because they weren't sure if they were going to be around for the bananas to ripen. We take every day for granted. Every avocado I…
