https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EuYOnYL6G0Y Some bloggers choose a word for the year. A word to focus and inspire them.

I have always valued intentionality and try to be intentional in my speech … Continue reading Intention // So Will I

RuPaul Theology
Today I've been watching Season 2 (because Netflix doesn't have Season 1) of RuPaul's Drag Race and have been enjoying every minute of it. My brother and his girlfriend sold it to me as a mix of America's Next Top Model and Project Runway and I have not been disappointed. It's so fun. One of … Continue reading RuPaul Theology
Note to Self 6
We all have something to offer. Everyone knows something you don't know. You have something to learn and receive from every single person you meet. Don't miss that. Pretend that the words you say about someone directly influence their actions.

The fiery tongue

Here’s the thing about art journaling
I wouldn't classify myself as "creative." I am an organizer. A black-and-white, right-and-wronger. I like guidelines and rubrics and checklists. I am a-okay doing things by the book. I like knowing what to expect. I like clear direction and frequent affirmation. And yet...I like making something out of nothing. Better yet, I like making something better … Continue reading Here’s the thing about art journaling
Here’s the thing about Elliot Reid, Dominican Spanish, and Proverbs
During my last semester of college I watched all nine seasons of Scrubs on Netflix (oh, that blessed Netflix). Prior to that wonderful experience I would've listed the word "frick" and all it's derivatives on my list of least favorite words (along with the word scarcely, which for some reason I have always mentally replaced with the … Continue reading Here’s the thing about Elliot Reid, Dominican Spanish, and Proverbs
