I write down a lot of stuff. I am a writer-downer. Whenever I feel stressed/upset/excited/normal, one of my first instincts is to find paper and something to write with. It feels nicer when my thoughts are out where I can see and touch them than when they’re stuck in my head and creating traffic jams.… Continue reading My 2019 summer bucket list & collab with Olivia @ Purely Olivia!

When I first started reading her blog, I would check every Tuesday knowing there would be… Continue reading Three podcast recommendations

I've always somewhat subconsciously and somewhat jokingly kept a list of rites of passage in my head, and turning… Continue reading Sweet sixteens and other rites of passage
