The topic of “#goals” and how it has impacted our society is something that has been widely debated and discussed over the past couple of years. So, naturally, being a 21 year old female living in the peak of millennial culture, I thought I would take it upon myself and join the conversation. This is my story of how “#goals” made me hate myself.

Goodbye March, Hello April~

April 3rd 2016

So March has ended and April is back again, hopefully bringing some warmer weather along with it. I figured now would be the best time to take a seat and review my March goals and set some goals for April:

  1. Try a spin class.
  2. Go to a unique museum or exhibition
  3. Take a trip somewhere new, even if it is for just a day

Sandy Feet & Sunsets

March 11th 2016

I spend a little too much time living the life I made up in my head.14

I’ve always been the kind of person to get nostalgic while watching the sunset. I feel like sunsets have a way of connecting you to the past, present and future all at once. One sunset can bring me back to a hundred others but also makes me feel so alive in that current moment; like it’s just me and the sky and the universe looking down at me. I have always loved to watch sunsets at the beach because the beach is my favorite place and where I feel most comforted (when it is late and no one is there except me and whichever company I choose to bring along with me).

Anyway, today I decided to “stop and smell the roses” because I feel like I never really allow myself to slow down too much or for too long.

A Trip Around the Sun

Starting a blog/online diary has always been a goal for me since I started using writing as an outlet to contemplate and analyze new parts of life as I grow up and learn to take on the world I live in. However, I am a bit of a perfectionist which would be quite obvious if you were sitting here watching me type, then erase, then type, then erase just about every sentence I have written so far. So, with that being said, I have put off making a blog because I have always had issues with starting new things out of fear that I would not just magically be inherently good at them.

Nonetheless, I have finally decided that today is as good a day as any to start a blog and start sharing my writing in the hopes that even if no one ever reads it, I will somehow benefit from the experience.
