Arbitrary Madness. Artistic Exploration. Dope Things.
I’ve been reading this book called When It’s Real and wow–I can’t put it down. What I love about this book is that I get to live vicariously through Vaughn, a girl who gets the guy of her childhood fantasies. I don’t want to spoil the book before Saturday, but I will say that the guyContinue Reading “Romance.”
I went to a rooftop yoga class this past weekend and the instructor asked if it was anyone’s first time doing a yoga practice. No one raised their hand and I smiled to myself wondering if anyone was lying like I do when I go to a new church and try to stay seated whenContinue Reading “Let me see you do that yoga.”
Raise your hand if you’re a fan of The Golden Girls! How about Murder, She Wrote? Now, imagine a combination of the two–a sassy, older lady with an active love life going around and solving crimes in a small village. Boom, now you’ve got Agatha Raisin. I figured you’re probably tired of reading about all myContinue Reading “Agatha Raisin.”
Ever since I read an article about the negative effects of getting less than eight hours of sleep, I’ve been keenly aware of how ugly and unproductive I am when I stay up an extra hour (or three).

With 96 hours between me and the end of Spring, I set to work tidying Marie Kondo style, and I’ve come to the conclusion that tidying is as rewarding as they say. But also it’s a complete and utter shitfest. Here’s a review of the past few days. Saturday This is the day I setContinue Reading “Update: Tidying (or the power of Starbucks x purpose).”
Looking back, I realize I used to be a very jealous person. The way I thought of people was influenced by my desire to have things that other people had whether that be confidence, love, money…Then one day, I decided that was wack! You can’t spread joy and have a jealous mind at the sameContinue Reading “Jealous.”
I’m still less than a quarter of the way through The Book of Joy, but maybe that’s precisely because there’s so much goodness in there that needs to be digested. Every chapter has something to offer (and a book review is due), but the chapter that’s really impacted me lately is the one called “OurContinue Reading “Our greatest joy.”
The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up has made me a believer. I walked past this book for about half a year like, “Nah, I don’t need to learn how to clean. I’ve got this.” I wish somebody told me what I was missing out on. Fortunately, I eventually checked the book out and now I’mContinue Reading “The life-changing magic of tidying up.”
Flat tummy tea is the funniest shit ever. No pun intended. Once, someone who will not be named — we’ll call her Sasha — told me an interesting story. One day she decided to eat vegetables and then accidentally downed two flat tummy teas. Bad idea. Later that day Sasha found herself in a situationContinue Reading “Flat tummy tea.”
The end of the week is nigh, wine Wednesday has passed, and the number of fucks you’re giving about your 9 to 5 is rapidly decreasing. Enjoy this moment. Remember that you’ve already conquered some shit this week, and you only have a few more things to do before you head back into the weekend.Continue Reading “Midweek musings.”
