Core Desired Feelings- 2016
If you have not read Desire Map by Danielle LaPorte, I HIGHLY recommend it. After quite the year of ups and downs I decided to take her approach to resolutions. Not setting specific goals, but identifying how you want to feel and deciding what you need to feel that way. The book includes the first part, describing … Continue reading Core Desired Feelings- 2016
Spend Time, Not Money
A few years ago, I wrote a post about Black Friday (found here). I hate Black Friday with a fiery passion, mainly because it brings out the worst in people. So this is another plea to you all, please spend time with your families this week don't plan your life around shopping. More importantly, please … Continue reading Spend Time, Not Money
I Hate When Gwenyth Paltrow is Right
Gwenyth Paltrow has always bothered me. She just comes off very pretentious. Every time I hear a quote from her I silently mock her in my head and probably make the faces of a 12 year old mocking their parent. Last year, she and Chris Martin decided to get a divorce, except she referred to it … Continue reading I Hate When Gwenyth Paltrow is Right

I've been writing and rewriting this blog post in my head since this afternoon. Today, I am beyond infuriated with how I am treated as a young, unmarried woman.

However, something has made me irritated enough to come on out of hiding for a bit and write. It's nearing election season...you know in a year. I always feel like this time of … Continue reading I HATE….hate
Beautiful Moments
I have been struggling with loving my career choice lately. I work excessively long hours and get paid next to nothing. I feel more like a babysitter than a teacher and I feel like my creativity is being stifled. However, in the moments I'm most exhausted a student always reminds me to appreciate the beauty … Continue reading Beautiful Moments
Soul Food- Week One
While I am not a religious person by any means, I do believe we have some sort of driving force within us. Something that lights up when fed properly. I believe our souls are the most neglected part in our daily care. What I mean is that we often exercise, eat healthy, etc. to keep … Continue reading Soul Food- Week One
Stop Being the Victim
I have two hopes for this blog post: 1.) I hope it doesn't sound rant-y 2.) I hope you think of your own situation and decide whether this is you or not. I have a pet peeve. That pet peeve is people who make themselves the victim. I'm talking about individuals and groups. I believe we … Continue reading Stop Being the Victim
