My mom and I were recently in Vermont for the third year in a row and we were very much looking forward to it. We got off to a not-so-great start and there were a few bumps during our stay, but the trip wasn't a complete bust. We still enjoyed ourselves and getting away from … Continue reading Vermont’s “Largest” Candy Store?

The Case for Not Finishing a Book
Time is a precious thing. You’re only allowed so much of it and there are no do-overs. No matter how much we fantasize about time travel, the fact is… it’s never going to happen. With this is mind, I’m making a point to no longer waste my time on things I am not enjoying. If … Continue reading The Case for Not Finishing a Book
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child [book review]
Let me start off by saying that it is completely obvious that J.K. Rowling did not write this book. Sure, she had some creative input on the story since they were dealing with her characters and all, but this felt nothing like reading any of the seven Harry Potter books. The most obvious reason this … Continue reading Harry Potter and the Cursed Child [book review]
I Miss School (Sort of)
I know, I know. You think I'm crazy. Heck, I think I'm crazy at times, but it's true. I miss being in school and most things about it. I've been out of school for just over a year now, and it's still something I have to wrap my brain around. Which is partially why I'm … Continue reading I Miss School (Sort of)
Getting My Groove Back
I know I haven’t been as active here on the diaries this summer. To be blunt, I’ve just been in a slump. I want to write, but I either don’t have time to just sit and write or when I do have time, I just don’t feel like it. That has to change. I miss … Continue reading Getting My Groove Back
Unexpected Blessing
This past Monday I was slapped in the face... with a job. I didn't fill out an application nor did I go in for an interview. I was simply asked if I could stop by the library and was offered a job that had opened up that morning. I can't even begin to explain how … Continue reading Unexpected Blessing
July Playlist
It's been a while since I've shared a monthly playlist. The reason I stopped was because a lot of the songs would've been repeats. But this summer has brought some new songs into my life, as well as reintroducing old ones that I haven't listened to in a while. So here are some of the … Continue reading July Playlist
Introversion
I've been a real hermit lately, even on the Internet. Assuming you're all still here, you've noticed this is my first post in a few weeks. Sorry about that. I just sort of lost myself into a deep state of introversion that I just plain didn't feel like coming up with any blog posts. As … Continue reading Introversion
Seeing the Sequel First
Why would anyone do that? See the sequel of a movie first? Well, since you asked, one reason I can think of would be that you promised your best friend to go see a movie, even though you hadn't seen the first one because honestly you had no interest in the first place, but hey, … Continue reading Seeing the Sequel First
When in Doubt, Consult the Book Jar
You sit there staring at your pile of unread books, but have no idea which one you should read. How can you decide? They're all great books! Here's what you do... You consult the Book Jar. First of all, I am not taking credit for coming up with this idea. It is something that I … Continue reading When in Doubt, Consult the Book Jar
My Future is in Good Hands
I'm just going to admit this... I was a mess this morning. An emotional, worrying, crying mess. Because of the immediate future.
