Oh, I know, I'm always struggling. Honestly, what else is new? I guess I just thought that I was doing better after my trip to Paris, and I am comparatively, but I was only really doing well for a couple of weeks. Now it's been a month today that I've been back and the last two … Continue reading Letters From Exchange: The One Where I’m Struggling (Again)

Trying to Think Creatively
"You can't use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have." - Maya Angelou I have hit a creative block. It's not particularly uncommon for me. These posts aren't too affected by it, because while I do put in a bit of effort into them, for the most part they consist of fairly … Continue reading Trying to Think Creatively
Letters From Exchange: The One Where I Only Have Two Months Left
There are only two months left to my exchange, and I have to say, I'm rather conflicted about it. On the one hand, I'm very excited to leave. That sounds bad, but I won't lie about it. I've chronicled to a silly extent how much the Norwegian winter affected me, and I am excited for … Continue reading Letters From Exchange: The One Where I Only Have Two Months Left
Letters From Exchange: The One Where I’m Antisocial
This week's been fairly productive, though admittedly I only really did anything on Saturday, so let me revise: yesterday was productive. Despite the amount of time I've spent sitting on my bum today, I do feel quite motivated for the days ahead and for higher productivity levels. I just really need to take advantage of … Continue reading Letters From Exchange: The One Where I’m Antisocial
Letters From Exchange: The One Where I Have a Monster Inside of My Chest
I have a monster inside of my chest. There, I said it. A monster. Some days it feels like a lion, some days a dragon, some days just pure fire. It changes form but it never leaves, because my body is its cage. Yes, that's right, there is a monster in my chest and my … Continue reading Letters From Exchange: The One Where I Have a Monster Inside of My Chest
One Month Overdue
The longer I wait to type this out the harder it gets. It's been almost a full month since my last real post, despite my initial goal to blog three times a week. I don't really need to explain myself to anyone, because it is my personal blog and it is my random thoughts and … Continue reading One Month Overdue
To My Sixteen Year Old Self
An open and honest letter to myself five years in the past. Do you have anything you wish you could tell a past you, even if just to warn them for what was to come?
Letters From Exchange: The One Where I Want to Get Better
So, that last post was a bit of a downer, eh? (there's that time spent in Canada showing through). Yeah, I wrote it and fell into a deep spiral of self hate that I had to sleep off. I hardly ate that day, but then I got so weak that I had to get McDonald's … Continue reading Letters From Exchange: The One Where I Want to Get Better
Letters From Exchange: The One Where I’m a Mess
That's right, I'm a mess. Similar to this blog, actually, seeing as this is the first time I'm posting this week. Whoops. I don't even fully know what happened today, the anxiety just got to me. I woke up feeling a bit tired but mostly rested, was happy to see some sunshine as I filmed … Continue reading Letters From Exchange: The One Where I’m a Mess
Letters From Exchange: The One Where I Write Myself a To-Do List
I think I'm actually starting this one by asking myself "what do I need to tell myself today?" I think I probably mostly need to tell myself to get out of bed, seeing as it's almost 6pm and all I've done is scroll through Tumblr and eat breakfast. I'd like to claim this happened maximum … Continue reading Letters From Exchange: The One Where I Write Myself a To-Do List
