why is it a-okay to assume that we have the rest of our lives preplanned?! like, when i was a junior in high school, i felt like i had to know where i wanted to go to college. and now i feel pressure to know exactly what i want to study. & what i choose will be with me for…

i am. taking care
“self care.” a buzzword used all over the internet. when i hear, it i think face masks, wine and bubble baths. but is that really what makes me feel my best? personally, i think face masks are expensive, id take kombucha over wine and id rather not get pruny in a bubble bath. yet, i tend to do these things…

i am. not broken
we are made up of our experiences. our mistakes. our heartbreaks. our baggage. how does that make you feel? helpless? broken? how about proud? in yoga, the teacher told us that when some people break something valuable, such as a pot that has been passed on for generations, they glue the pieces together with gold, and it makes the item…

i am. not expecting it
it’s cuffing season, & i know a lot of people out there are looking for a boo to snuggle up with to watch christmas movies & drink hot chocolate. well, for those people in need, i may have some bad news; it’s typically easier to find a bf/gf that sticks if you’re not looking. sure, i’ve been in and out…

i am. under the influence
i tend to convince myself that my decisions aren’t really influenced by society, but as i grow up i realize that almost ALL of my decisions are influenced by society. for example, lets talk drugs and alcohol. sure i’ve drank (don’t snitch), but it’s looked at as normal. my parents did it, my friends do it, & honestly, no one…

i am. one
have you ever taken the enneagram test? if not, i highly recommend it (i linked it in my story). it’s basically a personality test that can tell your fears, desires, motivations, and more. don’t get me wrong, i usually just think this stuff is bull, but mine was spot on. so, you might as well just take it and see.…

i am. wrong
to judge. my mom is seeing this guy & a lot of people think he’s not good enough for her. he smokes, works as a bartender/restaurant manager, lives with his parents & has a mouth like a sailor. people close to her have warned her not to date him (because of the bar scene stereotypes). but as someone who has…

i am. sad
but only sometimes. one purpose of this blog is to show people that their pain isn’t individual. in fact, a lot of the feelings we experience or the things we have had to tough it through are extremely common. & although i love to give some peace of mind to all of you, i also need it from time to…

i am. an “influencer”
& as much as i hate that term, i do think that my persona lately has been trying to come off as one. like, i am still posting pictures from europe as if i’m still traveling all of the time. i gram my food as if i eat smoothie bowls and extensive salads every day. i am trying my hardest…

i am. influenced
ever notice that once your friend starts saying something, no matter how stupid it is, that you start saying it, too? for me its been “i’m that,” which i initially hated, but now i can’t seem to get anything else to come out of my mouth. sure sure, we have all experienced this. but have you ever thought about the…
