Lately I've been seeing friends sharing on social media* that they are feeling frustrated with how little they have accomplished in their lives or are struggling to build the life they want. This is probably because I turned 30 just a couple months ago. We're all turning 30 and taking a bit look around and … Continue reading Actual Living, Breathing Bachelors

Yoga, Young Life, and Dessert
Last year my friend Laura invited her friends (on the internet and in real life) to join her in committing to 100 Days of Sun Salutations. I thought, “That’s a great idea! But I can’t commit to that now.” For whatever reason, the timing wasn’t right, although I probably needed a steady yoga practice last … Continue reading Yoga, Young Life, and Dessert
Ramblings of a 27 year old virgin (Part 2)
A decent amount of my friends in the States have been married/in serious relationships for a while now but the missionary crowd tends to run single (and female) for a bit longer, so it's just now in my late 20s that my making plans with friends is starting to sound like, "Let me check with … Continue reading Ramblings of a 27 year old virgin (Part 2)

I mean, I can't just sing about how powerful the … Continue reading Weepy Sunday // Domingo llorón
Here’s the thing about June
June was an exhausting month. We finished up the school year at Las Palmas and then I worked a week with YouthWorks in Brooklyn and spent the last couple of days of June running around getting things in order for my visa application! BLOG POSTS & ARTICLES // For God so loved Caitlyn Jenner by … Continue reading Here’s the thing about June
Here’s the thing about December
I kicked off December by making myself at home in my new apartment. I acknowledged my NaNoWriMo loss and persevered. I finished Part 1 of Draft 1 of Novel 1. I mourned with brothers and sisters all over the United States who mourned losses and the suffering of being silenced. I signed up for a … Continue reading Here’s the thing about December
