Hello, World.
Since I went over my 2019 Bookish Goals, I thought it’d be fun to check in at the end of each month about what I read. I will admit, January was a slower reading month than I thought. Continue reading “January Reading Check-In”
Hello, World.
I don’t have a Soul Cycle near where I go to school and it’s really hard to motivate myself to work out now because I just compare each work out to a Soul Cycle class. As I’ve discussed on here before, I did Soul Cycle regularly while I was in D.C. last summer, and I fell in love with the workout type. Continue reading “Sweat: creating my own workout playlists”
Hello, World.
I am in my last semester of law school, and even as I type that, I can’t really fathom how it happened. In many ways, it feels like I just started law school. The last three years have gone so so quickly. The last semester of law school feels very different than the last semester of undergrad. I remember being so excited to finish undergrad because I knew exactly what was coming after: I was moving to the east coast for law school. Now, standing in the last semester of law school, I can honestly say I have no idea what is coming next. Continue reading “Read this when: you’re nervous about the future”
Hello, World.
In college, I wasn’t really a big TV person. I pretty much watched Friday Night Lights and Gilmore Girls on rotation. I didn’t have cable or Netflix, so it was hard to watch new shows. In law school, however, I’ve fallen prey to the mindless TV watching before bed habit. It’s the easiest way to unwind after a full day. I wanted to share some shows I’m loving and that I highly recommend. Continue reading “TV Shows to Watch”
Hello, World.
Toward the end of fall semester, I started feeling like I had too much stuff. I think the feeling was exacerbated by also feeling like I didn’t have enough space to adequately store my stuff. Lack of closet space, lack of bins to put miscellaneous items, etc. all contributed to feeling really overwhelmed. Over the last few years, I’ve said I need to go through my closet but just haven’t made the time to do it. Continue reading “Marie Kondo”
Hello, World.
As winter continues and the year winds down, my skin is looking rough. With the spike in my sugar intake and the cold weather, my skin is a bit more broken out than normal and significantly drier. Continue reading “Current Beauty Favorites”
Hello, World.
Today I wanted to share my top picks for gifts for men. Whether it’s a significant other, brother, brother-in-law, or father, I think all of my picks work. Somehow, most of my picks ended up with a travel theme, but alas, travel materials are something most of the men I know don’t buy for themselves, so would be great gifts, especially if you have travel planned in the new year! When I need gifts for men, I got to Mark and Graham or Kiel James Patrick, pretty much exclusively. Continue reading “Gifts For Men”

Hello, World.
With Thanksgiving this week, and the holiday season in full swing, I wanted to share why I participate in Ali Edward’s December Daily project as a 20-something, single, childless person. When I tell people I scrapbook my way through December, they usually look at me with a few expressions: (1) confusion, (2) “wow, you’re a grandma” or (3) support. People who know me know I love taking photos and I love the holiday season. Christmas music, holiday drinks, fuzzy sweaters, Hallmark movies, I’ll have it all. The holidays are a very happy time for my family. Continue reading “December Daily: Why I Participate”
Hello, World.
My parents recently visited Williamsburg, and I wanted to share some snapshots of their trip. We had so much fun. Despite my week being far busier than I anticipated, I’m glad I got to see them and I appreciate them visiting. I don’t go home for Thanksgiving, so they usually visit the first week in November. This year I’m not going home until fairly late in the year for the Christmas holiday, which I’m not excited about. However, seeing them makes it a bit easier.
