Did Someone Say Starbucks?

Last year, I wrote a blog post about how Starbucks was my soulmate. I’d like to do a yearly review of Starbucks, and how somethings have changed, or not changed. Cover photo was taken during my week internship in NYC, and I got the lighting worked out so well in this photo. Note: If you enjoy Starbucks orContinue reading “Did Someone Say Starbucks?”

What I Learned While Living Alone

Good afternoon! I hope your day is going as well as mine is.  If you follow my blog, you’ll notice I haven’t been writing a lot lately. Over the past two months, I’ve been helping my Grandmother move back into our little house. Which means lots and LOTS of boxes.  I had thought of this blogContinue reading “What I Learned While Living Alone”

Spirituality Series: Why I’ve stopped attending Church.

It has nothing to do with faith, more to do with people. A couple of weeks ago, my Grandmother asked me to go to Church. Now sure, I could’ve stayed home, but I was really interested in going out to eat afterwards and meeting some of my Grandmother’s friends. Ever since High School, I hadContinue reading “Spirituality Series: Why I’ve stopped attending Church.”

Going home causes anxiety.

       Photo taken by Ben Marcin  If you’ve ever had to decide where relatives go for the holidays, you might recall the feelings similar to mine. Over the past couple of years, the holidays have been smaller family events, but during my high school days (and younger) it was always a trip toContinue reading “Going home causes anxiety.”

Part Two discussion of Narnia

Yesterday, I wrote part one review of The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe and The Magicians Nephew, written by C.S. Lewis. The Chronicle of Narnia series is, in its entirety, Children stories/literature. C.S. Lewis wrote these stories for his children, and based the characters around his family. While these books were the only Children’s LiteratureContinue reading “Part Two discussion of Narnia”

Part One discussion: Narnia

Before I begin my review, I would like to begin with these factors: I watched the 2005 movie before I read the book years ago. Back in the late 2000’s, I tried reading The Magicians Nephew before reading The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. I never completed the  book, and felt discouraged about reading the entire series.Continue reading “Part One discussion: Narnia”

February Gardening Tips

  I won’t be doing any gardening at my current residence, because I’ll be moving into an apartment complex soon. This means I won’t have as much room to garden, like I had planned in January. It actually works out in my favor, because I would like to take this gardening season easy. Love myContinue reading “February Gardening Tips”

Shift Society Magazine: Women empowerment.

Earlier this month, I wrote an article submission to this quarterly magazine. Even if my article is published, I still love this magazine. I actually found out via social media about this new magazine. While I still have not picked up the Winter issue yet, I plan on it when I have income rolling in.Continue reading “Shift Society Magazine: Women empowerment.”

Before & After

Yesterday was the first day I had put on make-up in over two weeks. Honestly, I have never truly cared about Make-up. The industry itself is what shunned me away at a young age. Self confidence issues alone, I realized I could never BE as pretty as the women in the commercials for all theContinue reading “Before & After”

Short Stories & NaNoWriMo 2016

Ahh, National Novel Writing Month. Twenty or so days into the month, I was struggling for finding words for my novel. I started this short story below, because I needed something fresh to write. In the end, I won NaNoWriMo 2016 and this short story helped me on my 2016 Novel, Tilt.  Now since I’ve goneContinue reading “Short Stories & NaNoWriMo 2016”
