8 important rules to live by

Since Taylor Swift’s new album, Midnights, came out last year, I haven’t been the same. The 3am edition has been on repeat. Now, what does that have to do with life rules? Everybody knows that Taylor’s a genius, and she never fails. She proved that again with this album and, more specifically, her song DearContinue reading “8 important rules to live by”

Happy International Women’s Day 2023!

Women’s Day Today is an important day, and so, in honor of International Women’s Day, I want to dedicate this post to all the women in my life, all the women whose names were never written on the family tree, all the women that came before me, and I never got to meet.

Some thoughts I’ve been having lately Here’s a somewhat different update on my life and thoughts doing Erasmus and living in a completely different country. It’s not like I haven’t lived alone before or anything, and there’s no real language barrier, but I do feel strange. I’m actually missing the excitement. I feel like I’mContinue reading “The early a.m. thoughts”

Time
