2015: The Year of Me

The title seems a tad self serving, doesn't it? It's not meant to be. It was intended to be "the year of you", but I realized this was a more internalized blog post than a self-help one. Just know that this is the year of you, whenever you're reading this. And you an do anything. I want you to know that I'm trying...

Thoughts Before My Final (Word Vomit)

Why don't I ever focus? Do I just honestly care so little? I think my faith that things will always work out permits my general laziness to overtake any determination to focus on something that feels like actual work. Sure, tonight it's a youtube addiction, but if it weren't that it'd be Tumblr or something … Continue reading Thoughts Before My Final (Word Vomit)

Bachelorette’s Bad Rep

Bachelorette is not The Hangover. It has many similar basic elements, sure, in that it takes place in the night before the wedding and focuses on how much the main bridesmaids can royally screw up the approaching big day for the bride. It's also comedic. That's about it though. Where The Hangover is over-the-top ridiculous comedy, pulling out all the tricks that Vegas allows and then some, Bachelorette's comedy is based on very realistic experiences, such as taking too many drugs, trying to get laid at weddings, and how horrible girls can be.

Let’s Be Friends :)

I thought it was about time we all get to know each other a bit better. So I'm just going to leave that video here, and hope you enjoy getting to know some weird tidbits about me and my life! Let me know in the comments something about you! I'm really curious as to who's … Continue reading Let’s Be Friends ðŸ™‚

Oh Oh Oh, Where Does the Time Go?

So I've been blogging for a while now, and I've accidentally gone from blogging two to three times a week down to about once a week. And I'll blame it on the fact that I started making youtube videos three times a week and how much time that takes up, except I don't make youtube videos all three days every single week because, well, I failed at keeping up that schedule as well. I haven't even had a lot of class, and I hardly leave my room, and I've barely written anything for my book since I started it. Where is my time even going?

Walking in a Winter Wonderland (Lillehammer)

A two hour train ride can take you north to Lillehammer, a lovely little town known for hosting the 1994 winter olympics and being the setting of Netflix original Lilyhammer. If you've never seen or heard of the show, the premise is essentially that a mobster moves under the witness protection program to Lillehammer because, well, no one's going to recognize him in this small town in Norway. I can say it really is that small.

Welcome to the Darkness

Woah, Nellie! Where did the week ago? Oh, that's right, I spent it watching The Nanny. Netflix has done horrible things to my motivation. I just found this post on Tumblr that says "Laziness fuels more laziness. Activity fuels more activity." and I have to say nothing else could better describe why I haven't blogged … Continue reading Welcome to the Darkness

Quirky Cultural Differences (#6)

This is long overdue, and becoming less quirky with time. I just really like the title. Sue me. Not to complain about my own life back home, but undergrad is significantly easier here. The selection and quality of cheese is pitiful. I've come to (sadly) understand that frozen burritos are a North American thing. Skin … Continue reading Quirky Cultural Differences (#6)

Money

I genuinely hate money. I need it, I want it, but I hate it. No matter what I do in life, I will have to focus on a way to get money, because otherwise I obviously won't have the means for shelter, food, and hygiene. Now of course the pursuit of money can be disguised … Continue reading Money

Anxiety

I didn't want to use that word for a long time. As someone who grew up in a household with no shortage of mental disorders, I often rejected my own emotions and giving them validity, but I also understand the importance of addressing such problems when they persist. Please forgive me for how messy this … Continue reading Anxiety
