A collection of my thoughts
As of today, I move into my first apartment in two weeks. This is so scary for so many reasons. My biggest concerns, however, don't lie with "living on my own" or being homesick. Those things have never really phased me, even when I left for college the first time, I didn't really struggle with …
When I was growing up, I basically lived in the woods. Every day was spent climbing trees, building forts and fairyhouses, and just roaming around in nature. I was constantly covered in poison something -- oak, ivy, or sumac. Take your pick. My hands would swell, my face looked like a basketball, and every time, …
Since today was my first day off in a while, I got to sleep in until 11 pm, which was amazing. It was still relatively dark in my room because the sky was completely clouded over. I kind of wanted to go out in the sun today, but since I could tell it would be …
The above picture is my skin a good 20 minutes after I woke up and washed it. As you can see, I don't have too many blemishes right now. However, the bad quality picture (android phones are seriously lacking) and the lighting reduces the redness by a lot. But my skin is soooooooo problematic. Let me …
I've made the decision to read at least one book a week for the rest of the summer. I want to do this because over the school year, I really don't have the time to fully commit myself to a book, and I like to read fast. I've held onto this book for years. I think …
The view from my webcam: aka sitting on Molly's kitchen floor in front of the screen door, taking in some good ol' vitamin D. I watched a video the other day focused entirely on how important vitamin D is, and how rare it is that most people get enough of it. While you wouldn't die …
I grew up with the idea of college being pounded into my brain. Life after high school consisted of nothing more than going to university, majoring in sciences, and eventually becoming a vet. That was all I had.
This blog is a long time coming. I've told myself for years that I will make a beautiful website one day, filled with my thoughts, my sense of fashion and design, and my diet. I kept putting it off because, being the perfectionist that I am, I convinced myself that my vision of my blog would never come to fruition because I don't have the right camera, the right computer, the right resources. When, in reality, none of that matters! As long as one has a voice and a basic concept of wordpress, they can create a wonderful blog, regardless of all that other stuff. And so, that's what I aspire to have. Hopefully with time I will improve and bring the space entirely up to my high standards, but not too bad for a first post, right? 😉
