My Life. My Blog.

Ok, so ever since the new year started, part of my “resolutions” have been to finally try something I’ve always wanted to. One of these things was learning how to swim. I knew I had some trips coming up here I’d be near the ocean so I definitely wanted to be more comfortable with the water. I learned that I am very afraid of a large body of water, even when my boyfriend and my family rented a cabin with a small lake in the backyard, I couldn’t even bring myself to get on the

To be honest with y’all, it came to a point where I was in a rut. Don’t get me wrong, I’m definitely a homebody, BUT when I did have the spurts of wanting to go out or hang out either it was too last minute to invite friends, people would be preoccupied, or I just wouldn’t even know where to go. So in the spirit of keeping myself company, I went to the drawing board. What I decided to do first was to make a list of all of the hobbies that sounded interesting to me, of course,

Not to toot my own horn, but I am a TV connoisseur. Actually, I don’t know if that’s a bad thing or not. ANYHOW, I know tv, I know good shows, and today I’m here to share them with you because you know what? I need more people who watch the same things I do, because some crazy shit be going on and I need people to talk things out with! First, I’m going to tell you about the shows and why you should watch them, THEN I’m going to give you a nighttime guide for you to give these

Now, when it comes to dorm furnishing, I’ve had 2 dorms during my undergrad time. We blame covid for this and me being grown and moving in with my man during senior year. BUT just know those 2 dorms were decked out and provided all of the experience needed to be able to write a post such as this.

And then it hit me. That this is the youngest I’m ever going to be from this day forward, and how cool would it be 20 or even 5 years from now if I could read my exact thoughts or raw emotions about certain situations and events that’ll happen from my mid 20’s onward. And so I bought a cute little journal from Target, some nice ass gel pens, and got to work.

Alright, a bit of a doozy here. But in Summer of 2025, my job position was being cut due to funding issues with the new administration. Although I was applying to very similar jobs for 3+ months straight, I was having no luck. I wasn’t in a tight space just yet (because ya girl eats down when it comes to budgeting okur!) but I wanted to find something (and soon because since I was working in education), I knew that once August came it was pretty much a wrap. I was tired and b

Taste so good, make you wanna slap ______. Ok, so about two years ago I had the amazing pleasure of tasting the 'Million dollar bacon' from First Watch. I'm not one to really eat bacon outside of an omelette but this right here?! Amazing, the bacon was flavorful, sweet, spicy and smoky if it all makes sense. And for the longest time I strived to be able to create it at home without having to spend $5 for about 3 pieces every time I craved some. So after many tries, and about

That is NOT a tourist trap. Alrighty, so before I left for school in Kansas City, my friends and I was always hitting up some spots to just chill. Granted some may be tourist spots but that's ok ! Honestly just read it and let me know what you think! 1. The Zoo Not to brag BUT the St. Louis Zoo is one of the best in the Country. Not state, not midwest, the COUNTRY. Not to mention admission is FREE. Ugh, my family, friends and I would literally just go to the zoo on a sunny su

Let’s rewind it back to December of 2019. I was on Tinder and had no luck so far. Between these men straight up lyin’ and being flat out weird, I was over the dating game and was actually two seconds from deactivating my damn account. I had all of these expectations while being single. I just KNEW I was going to be going on dates, living my best life-exploring Kansas City and I couldn’t have been more wrong. Yes, I was going out on dates, but they were weird. And awkward. I c

Okay Girlies, gosh do I have to catch yall up. So, to give you all a quick summary- originally, I wanted to take a quick baecation for spring break to Disney World. I’ve never been and I figured it was perfect- a week off from school, great weather, some bomb pools, restaurants, beaches- you know, VIBES. But unfortunately, the trip started to get really expensive really quick. I’ve always heard people say that Disney Land/World is not for the brokies, and boy they were not l

Alright girl, lay back and get comfortable because today I’ve decided to take you along my latest adventure. I would say that for the past month or so, I’ve really been eager to find my own place. Which is crazyy because I’ve always said that I would be the last of my kind to leave the nest of comfortable living with my mom.
