I haven't been able to get myself to the gym more than once a week lately and I always feel guilty about it. But there are times when you want to go to the gym and you're too lazy and then there are times you just don't want to go. And I just don't feel…

Last Year In My 20s
This month I turn 29, my last year in my 20s. Insanely enough, I started this blog when I was 21. So I’m creeping up on 8 years writing on this blog. In that time, we’ve had a name change from Hookup Culture to Rosie Culture. I was a recently-dumped broken-hearted sorority girl trying to…
Proving Yourself
One thing that can become extremely exhausting is always feeling the need to prove yourself. I think I’m a pretty defensive person, I’m a middle child so I feel like I had to hold my ground a lot growing up. Felt like I had to prove myself while sandwiched between 2 older sisters and 1…

In March 2020 I was 26 years old living in New Hampshire, only had one dog, and a completely different job. Now I’m 28 (almost 29) back in New Jersey with 2 dogs, engaged, and 2 jobs past that job in 2020. I don’t think I’ll stop talking about COVID any time soon. It has…
My Social Battery Is Drained
Nothing like a good ol pandemic to make you change part of your personality, right? I’ve always been introverted, but in the last 2 years I’ve basically lost all social skills. DoorDash means I don’t have to order food in person or even meet up with a delivery driver. Working from home meant meeting all…
The Time Has Arrived
For years I’ve thought to myself, I wonder when I’ll get burnt out on social media. I work in social, this blog and social are a passion project, and then I also maintain it for family and friends. It’s a lot, I’ve had over 20 accounts linked to my phone at one time. I didn’t…
Forgetting How To Be Vulnerable
It happens to the best of us, we put up a wall and we have no idea how to knock it down. Someone along the way hurt you enough or broke your heart enough for you to start building brick by brick. An indestructible shield around yourself so that no one could get through like…
