Create With Me: Vision Board


Hello, everyone!

I've recently been seeing a lot of videos and blog posts about vision boards and the importance of them. A vision board is a collage of pictures, quotes, words, etc that inspire you to reach a goal. The goal can be something specific for the next couple of years, like graduating from college, or it can be something that will take a longer period to build, like building a family. Vision boards are daily reminders that keep you focused.

I decided to make my own vision board. It is nowhere near finished, but I like what I have accomplished so far. My vision board is focused on specific goals in a bunch of broader categories. I have writing, mindfulness, fitness, and spirituality as my four categories. I hope to expand upon my vision board in the future to include other goals of mine, such as starting a family.

Now that I have gotten all of the background information out of the way, let's create!

February 2016 Goals: My Happiness Project (Writing)


Hello! I'm so excited for this month because the focus is on writing! Writing is without a doubt my favorite thing in this world. It helps me express myself in a way that is unexplainable. It is the only thing that has always made sense to me and something I never have to question. So, what do I want to work on with writing this month?

January 2016 Monthly Favorites

Wow! I cannot believe the first month of 2016 is coming to an end! I've had an interesting month to say the least. I was sick and then contracted pink eye (most likely from rubbing my eyes with my dirty hands while at work), visited my grandparent's old house where I spent a good part of my childhood, had my first experience with working the night shift, survived #Snowmaggedon2016, and
much more!

More Things That Make Me Smile


I was sitting here, contemplating what to write about. Jonas has come and left piles of snows all over the east coast, leaving us locked up in our houses for a few days, with no way to get out. This is a time where many of us have too much time to spend thinking and reflecting. Times like these are what lead to feelings of uncertainty and self-doubt. I don't think I'm the only one who needs to be cheered up on this Monday.

Dead Witch Walking Book Review


Last month I read Dead Witch Walking by Kim Harrison. The book follows Rachel Morgan, a witch who works for the IS (the FBI for the supernatural). Rachel quits her job and teams up with a vampire, Ivy, and a pixie, Jenks. If you'd like a more in depth summary of the book, I will link the book's Amazon page here.

Some of my Favorite Apps | January 2016


Living in a generation of drastic advances in technology has led to my appreciation for apps, especially those that help keep me up to date with current events and answer all of my questions. I created a post today full of some of my favorite apps. These are not all of the apps I use on a day to day basis.

As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own. With this in mind, let's get into some of my favorite apps!
