So I went into 2023 thinking it’ll be the best year, but I gotta say, so far it’s kinda kicking my ass. Right before new year’s started, I did a tarot reading with my bestie and personal tarot card reader, Divya. And I asked what 2023 will be like in a nutshell. I was excited…
Valentine’s Day Twenty Twenty Three
Cheers babe!! It’s Valentine’s day again 🙂 So the first obligatory thing I’m going to point out is my previous Valentine’s posts: see 2016, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022. So as you all know, I’m very big on self-care on Valentine’s day. You all are free to read the old posts to understand my complicated feelings about this holiday,…
To Do Item for Week 2: Check in on loved ones
Hello hello rockstars, It is 8:46 p.m. right now, and I’m pretty much going to post as soon as I finish writing. Maybe if I actually posted at a consistent time then people would follow me and pay attention to the things I say… Alas, what is this blog besides a glorified journal, anyway? The…
2023 is the year I get my pilot, motorcycle, and racing license
Hello babes! Right now I’m sitting in the comfiest sweat pants (shoutout to Calvin Klein. Without fail, every Black Friday, I end up buying CK sweats. They’re just so comfy?!) and drinking a midnight coffee. I actually am taking a break from work (yes, I know it’s Saturday) to write this blog post. A few…
Hogwarts will always be there to welcome you home
Hello rockstars, This blog post should have been called “The World of Harry Potter: Child’s Dream or Oppressive Police State” because it’s the original title of the blog post I was going to write with my dear friend Shane. I got the news earlier this week that Shane is no longer with us. I wanted…
A passing side character in someone else’s life
Hello everyone 🙂 This is also not a travel blog post, sorrrry. But those of you that read my most recent post, learned that I just started volunteering at the Strathmore Music Center. I’d been going to the Strathmore for years as a kid – for festivals, for outdoor movies, and for music performances. In…
Middle of the Night Thoughts
Hello rockstars, Right now, it is 1:46am on November 4, 2022. I’m going to skip through the “wow it’s been so long” commentary and go straight to the point! I was reading this book, “The Island of Missing Trees” through recommendation by my lovely mom, and so far, I love the writing style and I’m…
Lessons in Chemistry = Lessons in Life
It’s a rare feeling – to be so engrossed in something that you want to keep it going, but all the while being heartbroken because you know that when it’s over, you’ll be devastated. Recently I caught covid – for which I am still recovering – so it was my time to quarantine in a…
Happy 10,000 Days to meee!
Yesterday I reached a crazy milestone — I’ve been alive for 10000 days. Isn’t that absolutely crazy?? Malcolm Gladwell said that if you do something for 10000 hours, then you become an expert at it. I have the opposite situation, where 10000 days have passed and I have spent 240000 being myself. I wouldn’t say…
Celestial Events and Ordinary Moments
Do you ever have those days where you’re filled with a warmth and you don’t even know why? That was me yesterday. On a Monday, no doubt, it was a strange occurrence. But that’s pretty much what my day today was. I woke up early and went to work, I did some writing and editing,…
