Disney, Fall 2019: Traveling to a Galaxy Far, Far Away

In November this past year, I booked a last minute trip to Florida to go to Walt Disney World with my sister and her friends! We spent four days in Orlando the weekend before Thanksgiving and it was a ton of fun! Despite the personal struggles I was going through, it was nice to forget [...]

In 2019, my goal was to read 50 books. I kept on track until the end of the year when I had some personal stuff happen, but I still managed to read a total of 42 books. I was stressed at first about not making my goal but my therapist reminded me that reading is [...]

A Year in Review: 2019

2019. The end of a decade, and also the end of a very large chapter of my life. 2019 started out great and wonderful. I was growing and learning more about myself. I started going to therapy and joined a club on campus, added a major, and started doing more things that made me happy. [...]

Life Doesn’t Always Go as Planned

I have been absent from my blog much longer than I had planned, but I have a good reason. If you follow me on Instagram, you already know a little bit about what's been going on the past few weeks, but I felt like I needed to post a small life update here as well. [...]

Pros and Cons of Traveling Solo

I have read so many positive things about traveling solo, and I finally had the guts to try it for myself. I made mistakes, my confidence was tested, and I came out on the other side with lots of stories to tell- stories that only I can tell. With only one solo trip under my [...]

For fall break this year, I decided to take a trip by myself to the Pacific Northwest. I had never been to Washington before, and I really wanted to see Seattle, so I saved up some money and headed out! Two of my four days in the area I spent exploring the city and doing [...]

Life Update + 4th Quarter Goals

We only have 25% of 2019 left, which is INSANE to me! Holy how?? In three months, we will be in a new decade.. At the beginning of the year, I decided to split my "New Years Resolutions" into "quarters" or chunks of four so that they're easier to manage and to keep me accountable. [...]
