Blooming through experience. Memories through adventure.
In 2020, my goal was to read 45 books. I fell behind a little bit because of school, and then quarantine happened. You would think that having nothing to do for months on end would have given me plenty of time to read, but alas, it did not happen. My mental capacity to read was [...]
In January 2019, I challenged myself to record one second of my life every single day for a year using the One Second Everyday app. I had seen people do this years beforehand and thought it looked like fun. In 2020, I completed my second full year of this challenge, and I plan on doing [...]
My freshman year of college, I wrote a blog post documenting a typical week in my life. This is something I really wish I had done every semester, because I love looking back and seeing how different life is and how quickly everything changes. I'm now halfway through my LAST semester of college, so I [...]
I recently watched all seven seasons of Star Wars: The Clone Wars for the first time. As a life-long Star Wars fan, I was excited to learn more about prequel-era characters and watch my favorite Jedi (Obi-Wan) go on adventures. I was not expecting to find a new favorite character in Ahsoka Tano, apprentice to [...]

A lot of those memories have centered around my favorite places- Disneyland and Walt Disney World. Going through pictures and videos takes me back and makes me so emotional and READY to experience the magic [...]
Edit: Hello! After much reflection and thought, I've realized that I'm not demisexual, I'm actually asexual. I have never experienced sexual attraction, I just thought I had and told myself I had. I am leaving this blog post up however, and I haven't changed any of the text, because it is important to understand different [...]
2020 has been a year like no other. I never thought that right when I was starting to spend more time with friends and family that I would then have to social distance from everyone, but here we are. I'm an introvert, so staying alone in my apartment for weeks on end isn't as bad [...]
I've been hurt before. I've felt abandoned by friends and had mean things said about me. I've gone through a lot. But nothing compares to what I've been dealing with the past couple of months (read my short blog here for reference). As I've struggled through this season of life, my first priority was survival.

2020 has been the wildest year I've ever experienced in my (almost) 22 years on Earth and it's only March. WWIII is looming, fires ravaged Australia, Kobe Bryant unexpectedly died, and now COVID-19, a novel coronavirus, has become a pandemic and shut down countries in the span of months, seemingly overnight in the United States.
