Every year I find myself motivated at the new year, and every year I find that motivation dwindle quickly as the weight of a year's worth of commitments weighs down my shoulders. Sound familiar? I allowed myself to remain in motivation limbo at the start of the month, because I was only at work for … Continue reading 30 Day Challenge: Growth
This post is brought to you by: my scale – changing the way I view myself every day. Yesterday I stood on my scale to find that for the first time in more than almost five years I am a “healthy” weight. If that wasn’t strange enough, it’s also the first time I can think … Continue reading On Finally Being “Healthy”
Today started as "fuck, it's Monday" and is coming to a lovely end as "I'm ready for Tuesday." I've struggled with sleeping since coming to Korea - I'm not sure if it's that my bed is a lot less comfortable (which it is), or that I'm stressed, or now if I'm coming up with some … Continue reading The One Where I’m Swimming
Two months. It's been almost exactly two months since I moved to Korea. I still feel like a mess, I still don't know what to do with myself half of the time, but, somehow, I think I'm getting my footing. Working a 9-5 (or, more specifically, 8:30-4:30) job has helped me find a routine, but … Continue reading The One Where I’ve Been Here for Two Months
So I’ve moved countries…again. If you’re new here, I grew up in the sunny state of California, but at 18 I left home for Vancouver, Canada, where I went to university. I spent my third year abroad in Oslo, Norway, and that’s when I really spent time on this blog. I went back to Vancouver … Continue reading “Yes I Can”
Graduation is behind me. Summer's come and gone. I'm on to bigger, better things. Welcome to travel blogging 2.0. Back to consistency when nothing in life is consistent, ironic isn't it? I live in Korea now, except not really. I am living in a foreigner-friendly bubble on a mountain in Korea. My life follows a … Continue reading The One Where I’m Living in Limbo
Mondays are for fresh beginnings. Mondays are for starting over. Mondays are for getting over that stupid post-school slump of watching reality shows in bed all day (when you aren't working), your diet and exercise habits so messed up from finals that you can't remember the last time you ate a vegetable. Mondays - today … Continue reading Effort Makes You
Most Mondays I post some bit of advice or motivation, but it can get quite preachy, and I'm not feeling particularly preachy today. There's only so many things I can give advice about while I'm still working hard on my own goals. So let's have a chat. I feel good. I struggled a bit last … Continue reading The One Where I Feel Like Chatting
Yes, I am embracing the Taylor Swift jokes. Honestly, I like "22," I think it's going to be my anthem for the next year of my life. Today is the second day of my life as a 22 year-old, and it started with sleeping in until 11:30 because I was super exhausted on my first … Continue reading The One Where I’m Feeling 22
One year ago yesterday I started out on a journey of self love. I struggled a lot with my body image and self-esteem, and I even found it difficult for me to eat at times, so I knew something needed to change. With this revelation, I laid out a plan called 365 days of self … Continue reading 365 Days of Self Love
