Change
I do not know about you, but it’s hard for me to adjust to something new. Last week I started a new job. I had a panic attack the night before. Everything would change once I started my job, and it freaked me out. I was so used to living life inside with my pet… Continue reading

Loneliness
“loneliness is a sign you are in desperate need of yourself” -Rupi Kaur Read this line a few times over. Let your eyes familiarize themselves with the sentence. If this doesn’t resonate with you, I’m happy for you. If it does, keep reading, I hope you find comfort and company in my words. Take a… Continue reading

Opinions
“Let me warn you, you who are thirsty for knowledge, against the thicket of opinions and the conflict of words. Opinions mean nothing; they may be beautiful or ugly, clever or foolish, anyone can embrace or reject them.” -Hermann Hesse Opinions do not mean anything in the sense that there is more emotion than logic… Continue reading

Influence
My head bobs side to side to the rhythm of the music. The more I drink the less I think about my anxiety. At some point, I don’t feel anxious at all. The cool drink slides down my throat again And again And again. I don’t smoke cigarettes, but a few puffs keep… Continue reading

22 Things I’ve Learned About Skincare
I didn’t want to write a typical (things I’ve learned in 22 years) because there’s still so much I haven’t experienced, still, so much I haven’t learned that it seemed pointless to try. So instead I thought it would be fun to write a skincare blog today, even though I am NOT a skincare expert!… Continue reading

It’s why I overthink everything I say the first time, it’s hardly ever what I meant to say and sometimes it’s okay. Although often my spoken word… Continue reading

Relax
Lana del Rey’s Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass is a work of art I turn to these days. Her gentle words feel as ethereal as her metaphors. The way she plays with alliteration and assonance resonates personally with me as an aspiring writer. My favorite chapter from this collection is her account of taking… Continue reading

Wildfire
It starts with a spark. He gets along with your friends and remembers small things about you, like that you’ve seen Halsey in concert four times. A fire begins that engulfs and suffocates you. He cooks dinner with you while softly playing Frank Sinatra. He supports your writing and thinks you should be publishing already.… Continue reading

My Thoughts Are About Nothing, and Beautiful
I was a rambunctious child once, climbing on Eucalyptus trees, always dreaming of a faraway place. I was loud, opinionated, and strong-willed. People said I got it from my mother, but it was something more. To be unsatisfied with life at a young age isn’t unfortunate, it’s ambitious. There was a desperation, a yearning inside… Continue reading

A Timeless Classic I Turn to Often
I read The Picture of Dorian Gray my senior year of high school, and again Junior year of college. The first time I was taken back by the flowery, lyrical world Oscar Wilde brings us into. I read this now because of the inspiration it brings to want to create something nearly that lovely. The… Continue reading
About Me
Hi there! I’m thrilled to have you join me on my blog. I write fiction, nonfiction, and everything in between.
In my free time, I like to keep busy with a variety of hobbies. I’m an avid reader and writer, I love to knit, crochet, and embroider.
At the end of the day, though, my main priority is spending time with my loved ones. Whether it’s traveling or just spending quality time together, I’m happiest when I’m surrounded by those I care about.
