reflecting on various topics
I’m trying very hard not to. I’m trying to focus on this current moment. Trying to focus on the joys and challenges of the here and now. But I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I’m kind of dreading 2024. 😂 .😭 I often remember something that John Oliver said in his show, directly …
I thought this would be fun. It’s always nice to get to know people a little more, isn’t it? So I was in Argentina as a foreign exchange student. I went there when I was 18 to study abroad for a year with the American Field Service (AFS). It was a very fun, wild, and …

Of all the seasons, I find fall the trickiest. Orange, brown, green, yellow… these colors can either add to or subtract from the feeling in a room, depending on their shade. (Or you can just decorate with all of them and just enjoy it. That works too.) To pick the best shades for your home, …
I have never known a more polarized time. Many of us spend a great deal of time on social media. The algorithms show us the content that elicits the strongest emotional reaction from us- the ones we can’t just “keep scrolling” and pass by. The ones that tug at our hearts the most, and the …
Congratulations, you’ve made it to the end of September! Here are some cats. Hope you’re doing ok. Love,
