101 in 1001 Kickoff!
I've decided to do this... 101 things in 1001 days. From what I gather, it was started over at the Day Zero List website, which is a website where you can set up timed bucket lists to keep track of your progress and make sure you actually get things done. I originally found out about this … Continue reading 101 in 1001 Kickoff!
Say Hello to Changes
Seeing as it's April 1st I was going to do the whole 'I'm giving up blogging' joke, but I figured that there are probably other bloggers doing it and I didn't want to be another one in the mix. Besides, I'm not a fan of April Fools Day - I don't even consider it a real … Continue reading Say Hello to Changes
March Playlist
Music is great, isn't it? I love how I can either just lose myself to the lyrics of a really good song, be inspired by one, or just let it play in the background while I'm doing something else entirely. It makes my days more enjoyable and can pick me up out of a bad … Continue reading March Playlist
Remembering the Ones We’ve Lost
It seems weird posting this on Easter, but I feel like I have to. The holidays, though joyous occasions, are hard for some people. Like it or not, it's likely that most of us, if not all, have lost a loved one around the holidays. With a holiday like Easter, which has no set date, … Continue reading Remembering the Ones We’ve Lost
Books vs. eBooks
The great bookworm debate. It's actually a good one, and one that's hard for me to choose a side on. I grew up reading physical books, as most of us did. Out of all the different books I've read during my (almost) 25 years, my best memory of reading physical books was waiting for the newest … Continue reading Books vs. eBooks
Genie In A Bottle – Dove Cameron [song review]
While us Disney Descendants fans are impatiently sitting on the sidelines waiting for the release of Return to the Isle of the Lost (May 2016) and Descendants 2 (2017), we were gifted with a brand new music video that was Descendants themed. One of the movie's stars, Dove Cameron who plays Mal, covered Christina Aguilera's … Continue reading Genie In A Bottle – Dove Cameron [song review]
Safe
We're always doing what we can to stay safe - locking our doors, keeping pepper spray on hand, going on walks with a buddy... the list goes on. The scary thing is, no matter what we do to protect ourselves, we don't always see things coming and we can't always stop them. I find comfort … Continue reading Safe
Sending a Friend Away
Friends come and go... but some of them get great opportunities to travel abroad for an internship. One such friend of mine found out he was accepted for an internship at ORTV (Overseas Radio and Television) in Taiwan and will be leaving probably sometime this summer. However, he needs a little help getting there... literally. … Continue reading Sending a Friend Away
5 Mistakes I Made During My College Years
Admitting we made a mistake is one of the hardest things we can do. It's right up there with giving a sincere apology. As humans we tend to be proud creatures and we hate admitting we were wrong about something. But the thing is, humility is good for your soul... literally. So I'm taking a … Continue reading 5 Mistakes I Made During My College Years
Thawing Out My Productivity
Ladies and gentlemen, it's 76º outside today and it's pure bliss! I know that it's only March 9th and winter doesn't actually end for another few weeks, but if we could have nice temperatures from now on, I'll be one happy gal. I'm not saying it needs to stay in the 70s, just like the … Continue reading Thawing Out My Productivity
Faith To Fall Back On
Life will knock us down... multiple times and in many different ways. The best way to get through it is to just stand up, shake off the dust and press on, but it's not always easy. At first it's easier to just stay on the ground where you are. You might get upset and cry … Continue reading Faith To Fall Back On
Winter Blues
Happy Leap Day everyone! Leap Day must be a cool day to be born on... I mean, it only comes every four years so the babies born on February 29th are definitely special babies. The only thing is, when do they celebrate their birthdays the other days of the year? I know it's either February … Continue reading Winter Blues
