The first part of this year has been quite rough. I've been taking it one day at a time, because that's all you really can do at this point. While I am in the middle of this chaos, I've been working on organizing my work and personal schedule. So far, so good! I finally have … Continue reading How I Organize My Messy Life
Quick Rant 2: Electric Boogaloo
This has been on the forefront of my mind recently, and I need to let it out. I'm always told "family always comes first" or "family is all you have." What if I don't I don't have a positive relationship with my family? You would rather have me be around their drama because we share … Continue reading Quick Rant 2: Electric Boogaloo
My Phone Caught Fire, and Other Mishaps (Working Title of My Memoir)
It's halfway through February and I couldn't be anymore happier. I thought last year was a train wreck, and 2021 is shaping up to be just as ridiculous. In one of my previous posts I mentioned that it felt like one thing after another was happening, and it didn't stop at the mental health crisis. … Continue reading My Phone Caught Fire, and Other Mishaps (Working Title of My Memoir)
I created an Instagram!

January Got Me Good
Hi guys, I know I've been inconsistent with posting this month, it seems like one thing after another keeps happening and I'm struggling to keep up with things. I had a medical incident earlier in the month, and now a family member is going through a mental health crisis. It seems like I take one … Continue reading January Got Me Good
One Way I’ve Changed
I've been in a reflective mindset as of late, I'm not sure if it's the cold weather or the fact that I can't watch The Office anymore. Anyways, I was thinking how this whole ~pterodactyl~ changed my life externally, as well as internally. I could only come up with one thing, so we'll I don't … Continue reading One Way I’ve Changed
How I Survive WFH: Part 2
Can you believe it's almost been a year since the first lock down? Personally I'm still processing 2016, but that's another post. I was deep in thought again *procrastinating* and thought I could add a few more tips to this post since we're all getting cabin fever by now. Uno. I turn off all my … Continue reading How I Survive WFH: Part 2
My Morning Routine
Source: Canva Hey everyone! Sorry I've been MIA, I've had some health concerns recently so I took a break to focus on my mental (bad) and physical (worse) wellbeing. Anyways, my daily routine suffered for a bit and I'm trying to get back on it. Wake up around the same time: During the week, I … Continue reading My Morning Routine
A Little Reminder
Sometimes I stop and remind myself during the day to be patient and not rush what I'm doing at the moment or the goals I'm working on. Especially now, since I spend all my time at home I tend to get lost in my thoughts and put unnecessary pressure on myself to get stuff done. … Continue reading A Little Reminder
Things I’ll Be Doing Differently
As I'm sitting in my make shift workspace, I can't help but think of who I am now compared to who I was at the beginning of 2020 (mainly procrastinating but we can pretend I was deep in thought). I was inspired by this post to make a short list of what's changed, and what's … Continue reading Things I’ll Be Doing Differently
Quick Rant
Something that bothers me, especially in my 20's, is when people ask you what your "next steps are" in terms of marriage, having children, going to school, etc. To be honest, it gets on my last damn nerve. There's always this pressure to accomplish so much in a short period of time. I would just … Continue reading Quick Rant
It’s the Little Things (not a Good Charlotte reference)
Source: favim.com I watched Soul over the holiday weekend, and it made me think of moments I enjoy in life that have kept me sane, especially now. I always try to remind myself to be present and not get caught up thinking about the future, because we can't control everything. This list isn't the most … Continue reading It’s the Little Things (not a Good Charlotte reference)
Music Round Up
I am so happy this year is ending, I have mentally aged 10 years. Of course, that means I've had more time to mess up my Spotify recommendations. This list is three albums that I've had on repeat for weeks. They're new releases because I like to be "hip." I know I don't have the … Continue reading Music Round Up
Could 2020 Go Any Slower?
The answer is probably, yes it could. Also, welcome newcomers! Thanks for reading. I'm going to be honest, this year was NOT it. It was definitely a time for personal development and growth; I've learned it's okay to create and enforce boundaries with yourself and others. I've learned to have space for emotions and allow … Continue reading Could 2020 Go Any Slower?
How I Survive Working from Home (I don’t)
Yes, another post about working from home! Many of us are struggling to make the transition and maintaining our routines/ mental health/ waistlines, including me! None of us were expecting to become Jack Nicholson from The Shining, but here we are. My daily schedule usually varies due to working as a case manager, but here … Continue reading How I Survive Working from Home (I don’t)
Some Self-Care During the End of the World
Source: Google While I was working from my office/bedroom/bathroom, I made a list of self-care rituals I've been practicing while working from home during COVID. I'm a visual person and had to see if I could modify anything. Here's what I have so far: Following a vague sleeping schedule during the weekDaily journaling: whether you … Continue reading Some Self-Care During the End of the World
Anxiety is a bitch but so am I (sort of)
Along with all of the other problems I've been dealing with my entire life ~asthma~, anxiety is just another one to add to my list. For most of it, I've been struggling to even get a grasp on it. Now I have an idea of what I'm doing so I'm going to claim myself as … Continue reading Anxiety is a bitch but so am I (sort of)

I accomplished only one thing in 2020
One, well the only, goal that I've been working on is meditating. Why? Because I need to calm the hell down. I'm already skittish and with everything that is going on in the world ~pandemic~ I figured it would be a good time to try. I've been hesitant to try meditation in the past; I … Continue reading I accomplished only one thing in 2020
Drawings I’ve done in 2020
Hello to all five of my followers! I recently went through two of my sketchbook that have been sitting on my bookshelf to see if there was anything I could share form this year . I chose these three particular pieces because they encapsulate my personality so well (in a good way). That eye that's … Continue reading Drawings I’ve done in 2020
What I’ve Learned As a Case Manager
In my time working at a non-profit, I have picked up a few things that I can share. Of course, you can't learn certain things pertaining to social work/ case management through school, only through first hand experience. It's okay to let them know when you don't know the answer off the top of your … Continue reading What I’ve Learned As a Case Manager
Well
It's been about two and half years since I last posted, and thought I could start up again since we are still dealing with this pandemic. A lot has changed, yet it still feels like I am the same person I was all those weeks ago. It's wild to me how much has changed yet … Continue reading Well
