Opinions of others.

How much value do you put into the opinions of others? It's ok, I won't tell, how much? I would love to be the person that says "none." That can confidently say my happiness would never rely on the approval of others. However, that would be a lie. I have gotten better in terms of …

Begin again

I wish I knew a perfect way to start this, but sadly that isn't the case today. I really miss having a creative outlet, something I never knew I needed until four years ago. I never saw myself as a "creative" person growing up. Growing up, sports were more of my thing. I was awful …

I came in like a wrecking ball.

I am very type A. I know I've mentioned it over and over again but that's because it's true. Have you ever seen that episode of friends where everyone gives Monica a hard time about leaving a pair of shoes out? She lays in bed at night and can't sleep because she wants nothing more …

My word.

Hey blog, long time no see! It’s been quite some time since I wrote a blog post and updated anyone on anything. I was a little busy chasing my dreams, dreams that I accomplished. I wrote my book! The one thing I set out for myself to do in 2019. It was extremely time consuming …

I quit.

  I'm quitting. You may care. Or you may not. But I've decided to quit blogging. Sort of. It was one of my resolutions for 2018 to start my book. I've talked about it a handful of times on this blog. But it's my biggest life goal. (Besides visiting every major league baseball stadium) This …

Blog to 2019 Day 2: How to be unapologetically yourself?

How to be unapologetically yourself? By far one of the toughest questions I've ever been asked. By someone who I really admire. I asked people on Instagram the other week if they had any advice for me. This was the first question I got. It definitely left my puzzled. What does it even mean, to …

Blog to 2019 Day 1: Introduction

I cannot believe it's that time of year again. Actually I can. I start counting down to Christmas in September. I can believe it's that time and let me tell you.. I AM PUMPED. I live for the Christmas time. For the peppermint flavored everything. And Elf all over TV. For Christmas music on the …

Do something that scares you.

They always say to do something that scares you. To live outside of your comfort zone. That you'll be better for it. Well I hate to break it to you, but it's true. You don't need to do it all of the time. You'll be just fine if you spend most of your time your …

be yourself.

"In a world where you can be anything, be yourself." Have you heard this quote before? I've heard it around and never really payed attention to  it. It never made sense to me. Obviously you'd want to be yourself, why wouldn't you want to be anything but? We all want to be ourselves and don't …

Envious.

We're all guilty of being envious, whether we realize it or not. You could see someones brand new car and wish that you weren't stuck with your Toyota corolla from the 90's. A girl could walk by with these brand new designer shoes and you wish that you could afford shoes like that. You could …
