my mind has been a whirlwind for a little while now. i wasn't entirely sure i wanted to share what was going on in my head but after several weeks of digesting everything that's happened, i decided that i'm finally ready to write it all out. one of the most disappointing things is when you … Continue reading it is what it is

five hundred away
i've been overwhelmed with different emotions lately - i'm sure it's because my threshold has been meddled with due to the current events in the world. there's been a lot of crying, tension, and fear in my life. but something else intensified, too. love. in the time being isolated with my partner, i've learned so much … Continue reading five hundred away
friendship
lately i've been really social, as i've mentioned on multiple occasions. when i was younger i always tried too hard to make friends, and as surprising as this may sound now, i had a very difficult time with it. i joined multiple groups and even rushed a sorority in college, hoping so much to make … Continue reading friendship
giving thanks
this year thanksgiving will be much different than any year i've experienced. it's the first year i have to be introspective because instead of being thankful for a partner that completes me, i have to be thankful for myself. as i've said before, trying to love myself has been a challenge that i felt was … Continue reading giving thanks
yours does
last week was definitely one for the books. lately i've been starting to really enjoy being on my own. there are definitely some adjustments, but i'd say overall i'm learning to embrace it. i got to enjoy a delicious catch-up dinner with my dear friend, camille. she and i have been friends a while but … Continue reading yours does

a rainy burial
the first full week of september was full of twists and turns. i can't say that it was a happy week - there were definitely happy moments - but challenges in life aren't called that because they are easy. monday was a holiday, so i was able to just relax in bed and enjoy the … Continue reading a rainy burial
show, don’t tell.
something that's been on my mind for a few weeks now is the idea of showing your love to someone as opposed to simply telling them. i have never had trouble expressing myself. i'm very vocal, frank, and with the people i'm close to, demonstrative. one of the things i've always had trouble understanding is … Continue reading show, don’t tell.
building an empire
another week has passed, an oh - how wonderful it was! i can't help but feel like i've been living my best life, lately. things have been at an all time high, and i certainly hope things keep going up from here. the week started off with my boss bringing in his two sons to … Continue reading building an empire
two hundred paragon
this past week was one that i didn't want to end. it was fun, productive, and brought a lot of smiles. i'm not a green thumb - perhaps the exact opposite. it's odd that i'm so bad with them, considering my mom can basically make grass bloom. bae always jokes that i kill plants just … Continue reading two hundred paragon
