9 Things I Learned At Vidcon
This last weekend I had the pleasure of attending vidcon for the first time, and it was AMAZING. I chose the brand new creator track, which meant I got to go to special panels about being a better youtuber in addition to the larger community events like q&a's and social issue panels. It was three … Continue reading 9 Things I Learned At Vidcon
Kitties & Cancer
Since this blog gets a lot of my stream-of-consciousness words, here's a video that's just that. My emotional ramblings after finding out my cat is dying of cancer. It's silly, it's so so minute in the grand scheme of the world or even my life. Still, Kirby's been a part of over half of my life, and … Continue reading Kitties & Cancer
Book Review: The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared
It sure has been a while since I've actually written about books here, but as I just happened to finish one that I feel rather strongly about, I do feel the need to express some literary opinions.

I'll be honest with you, fangirl is a term I'm becoming a little … Continue reading Confessions of a Fangirl (Part 1?)
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

Travel With Me: Munich
Welcome to the third addition of my travel with me series! Some fun facts about Munich: I couldn't decide if I felt confident in my German or not and often switched back and forth, but got really excited when one older man couldn't speak English and I had to speak German. We did, in fact, … Continue reading Travel With Me: Munich
