Birthday week was intense. It was probably the best week I have had in a long time! I was treated like a complete queen and I kinda really loved it. I’m really really blessed to have the friends and people I have in my life. Tuesday was my actual birthday, but as you know, with … More birthday week
Turning 23 in the middle of a pandemic so far from home definitely is a bit different. However, Nothing says 23 like a flat tire! The day started off like normal, woke up early, went to yoga, got my butt handed to me in class, came home, took a very dramatic shower (I now have … More 23
Last year, my word/phrase of the year was uncomfortable and oh my, how greatly 2020 rose to the challenge of encapsulating it perfectly. After some very serious thinking, a lot of pondering, ya know, long walks on the beach, yada yada, I figured out what I want 2021 to look like for me. I plan … More take no shit
Last week was exactly what my soul needed. I started my trip literally feeling like I was going to die. I felt so gross and sick. Granted, it was my fault to begin with. I didn’t get home till super late on Wednesday night and realized I hadn’t packed for my upcoming 3 week trip…. … More season finale

While it was a short visit, it was so so needed. I haven’t officially been home since June and I was craving family time and some DAMN GOOD GREEK FOOD. I was feeling nervous about traveling, but I think we pulled off a pretty safe visit. We all got tested (and tested negative) before we … More thanksgiving 2020
The past two weeks have been full and busy for me! I have been working so hard, both physically and mentally. I’m getting ready to go home to be with my family who I haven’t fully seen since June, so I am very excited. I went to get my Covid test yesterday to make sure … More feeling is healing
As I am learning, making friends as an adult is hard. We are no longer in the sandbox at preschool yet why does it feel so dang difficult to connect with someone? Oh the joys of being in school. For me, I had a different new best friend every year. They really weren’t my best … More a friendly face
Writing this a tad bit late because I got sucked down the rabbit hole of Facebook videos, plus I watched a pretty gorgeous sun set! Although not too happy about how dark it is so early… I’ll admit that this week and today especially, I have felt extremely anxious. I voted this morning and since … More voted… did you?
