Popular media depicts life in your twenties as one long marathon of fun. Days are spent at jobs where we have our best work friend to pass the hours with, followed by nights at happy hour where you seem to meet a cute guy everywhere you go. Real life goes a little more like this, […]
I didn’t want to write this post. Actually, scratch that, I didn’t want to publish this post. Hitting publish meant a bunch of people would know of my intentions for the next sixty days and totally judge me next time I posted a photo of a delicious pizza on Instagram. Okay I’m gonna be 100% […]
New Year’s Eve has never been a big holiday in my life. My family celebrates minimally, meaning we stay awake until midnight, say ‘happy new year’ to one another, then all file into our bedrooms and fall asleep. Some years are extra ordinary and I find myself being the only one awake at midnight. In […]
How do I always find myself single on Valentine’s Day? Seriously though. It’s like I’m cursed to only have a boyfriend during the months that aren’t about gifts and grand gestures. Fucking shit. Well here I am once again, single as a dollar bill on the national day of love. Or chocolate, however you choose […]
At least once I day I find myself yelling, “oh my god, how did I forget that?” to myself. Usually I’m talking about the fact that I failed once again to type a response to that text I saw while walking down the street or scrolling through hours of Instagram posts. I am definitely one […]
Today marks the first day of Lent. I only knowing this information because a friend who I often turn to complain to has decided to once again give up Facebook for 40 days. Right as I’m in the middle of finding a job in Washington DC and getting my butt to the opposite side of […]
The 100 Happy Days Challenge is something that crossed my radar months ago, but like most other interesting things got bookmarked and buried under dozens of cat videos and DIY projects. Once I returned from my blogging hiatus I noticed that bloggers I followed we’re taking part in the challenge, and some were close to […]
I woke up Tuesday morning in complete agony. Instead of my cats waking me up or the sound of construction across the street, I woke up due to intensity of soreness in my legs. You guys, day 1 of being less of a coach potato is kicking my ass. If you read my last post, […]
**I wrote this during my last few days in California. I have since relocated to the East Coast and will soon be discussing how the move has gone** The majority of my day today was spent running around with my mom, purchasing last minute items I was in need of before my move to Washington […]
Throughout my life I’ve been in a lot of relationships. From some that only lasted a few weeks to others that spanned years. Having been dating since I was 13 years old, I feel as if I have a pretty good understanding of the opposite sex. While I’m not man whisperer and no one texts […]
Buying a bed with my own hard earned dollars was the ultimate sign of me slowly becoming an adult. Bonus points for the fact that I was looking for something larger than a twin size. I walked into the mattress store knowing my price range, then quickly doubling it when I sat on this foam […]
Television shows such as Sex and the City, Friends and New Girl brainwash us to believe that we can live in an exciting city full of cute guys, a plethora of jobs and best of all, a reasonably priced apartment. It’s not until most of us graduate college and enter the real world that we […]
I confess… >> this is the only link up I’ve ever cared about because it encourages gifs and I love ranting. This link up feels like a safe place to rant. >> I don’t like fashion and beauty blogs, there I said it. I never buy the clothes featured on fashion blogs and the last […]
This week at work I had a realization that made me wonder why I hadn’t thought of this before. Quick briefer, I’m a therapist, sorta. Technically I am, but I’m unlicensed, which means I’m in the process of earning my hours to be able to qualify to sit for the licensing exam. I’ve completed my […]
