The Most Sadness I've Felt Over a Stranger's Passing
NEW BLOG: Just writing what's been in my heart and on my mind this week.
I’m really trying to focus on health, fitness, wellness, etc on this blog, but I guess once in a while, I’ll talk about other things close to my heart. One of these things is baseball.
To preface, 2016 has been a particularly difficult year in news and pop culture. We’ve witnessed so many senseless tragedies—the Orlando massacre particularly comes to mind and breaks my heart. We’ve lost so many…

I Tried Stitch Fix for the First Time and...
NEW BLOG: Here's how @stitchfix fulfilled my dream of having a personal stylist. #StitchFix
DISCLAIMER: This post contains affiliate links, which I may be compensated for.
I’ve said in recent years that if I ever became a millionaire, the first thing I would do is hire a personal stylist. Though I’m about five years removed from that ever happening (HAHAHAHAHAHA *laughing till I cry*), it turns out that I can have my own stylist now with Stitch Fix!
“Karen?! What’s Stitch Fix?” asks…

A Primer on Bullet Journaling
NEW BLOG: What's in a #bulletjournal and why should you start one?
ScriptDash was a service I used. Didn’t know where to put the stickers they sent me, so…
Your Instagram, Pinterest, and Tumblr may be abuzz with the bullet journaling craze these days. However, all the pretty writing, highlight and pen colors, stickers, and doodles are beyond aesthetics. The bullet journal is an incredibly valuable multitasking tool for anyone with a pulse. It’s an organizer,…

Reblogged: 10 Tips for a Positive Body Image
NEW BLOG: Lessons in being body positive, by my sister
As complicated as we’ve had it over the years (And still being dicks to each other even now sometimes!), I’m really proud of both of my younger siblings. But it’s especially nice to have a younger sister who’s super creative and also a blogger!
With her permission, I am sharing a portion of a very inspiring and valuable post from her, about developing and maintaining a positive body image. I…

6 Healthier Choices You Can Make When You Work at a Startup
NEW BLOG: Hangry at the office? Craving ALL the greasy & sweet stuff? This one's for you.
What my desk might look like on a “healthy” day.
There are so many incredible perks to working for startup companies–health benefits, flexible schedules, company happy hours and offsites, the list can go on and on. However, one of the very best perks is the food! Startups love to take care of their employees by providing them with plenty of meals, snacks, and drinks to energize and nourish them…

How to Sleep Better (When You Have Sleep Apnea or Otherwise)
NEW BLOG: All about sleep apnea and my tips for better #sleep
Some of my favorite sleep essentials: a sleep mask, Farmacy Sleep Tight firming balm (a nighttime treatment for skin), Perfect Fit Unwind Tea, Calm book, Up by Jawbone fitness/sleep tracker, and my CPAP.
Sleeping is not just one of my favorite hobbies; it’s a life necessity, and it should be that way for everyone. When you sleep, your body and mind works miracles, not to mention dreaming can be…

It’s been a while.
I’m trying to resurrect this Tumblr as part of a fandom-related post I might make. Can anyone suggest a place I can pick up a high-quality theme?
Thank you!

POPSUGAR Must Have Box Review: January 2016
POPSUGAR Must Have Box Review: January 2016

POPSUGAR’s fabulous January Must Have box gave me all the goods to refresh, renew, and get myself organized for 2016. I’ve been a subscriber since May of last year and…

Welcome to Shower Sweat Repeat!
NEW BLOG: Welcome to Shower Sweat Repeat!
Hello. I’m Karen.
I did not take this lovely stock photo (Yay for finally finding pretty ones to use for free!), but I felt that this image was very welcoming, and it has rainbows and waterfalls! To me, those two things are symbolic of renewal. That’s what I feel like I’m doing in relaunching this blog, and in the subject matter I will be blogging about.
2016 has started off kinda hectic, but I…

A Brand New Life for Karen On
NEW BLOG: With a new year comes a new direction...
It’s been a while since I’ve written a post here on Karen On. I keep making the excuse that “Life gets in the way.” That’s partially true. I read in a book recently that if you truly love doing something, you’ll make time for it. Obviously, I have not made a lot of time for blogging this year, at least in the second half of it. I dedicated that time instead to my work, loved ones, and lots and…

Why doesn’t this have notes.
costumes to wear at the taylor swift concert to get you into loft 89
if you’re going with your partner- one person dresses as a fox, the other a hunter…make-out the entire concert
a big giant bloody band-aid with bullet holes
a big giant bloody pad and if everyone asks you, say you’re bad blood
dress up as a giant bottle of laundry detergent (I think I am finally clean)
your friend dresses as freddy kruegar, you dress like a princess or a fairy like the ethereal daydream stunner you are
bring a fuck boy, have him be shirtless, put a big white square over his privates for blank space cuz his dick ain’t shit

CLICK PLAY: Pop Remixed Workout / Run
NEW BLOG: Happy Hump Day! I made a quickie random Spotify playlist for all my fellow #fitness fiends.
One of the things I love about going to a workout class is the music. Fitness instructors sure have a knack for putting together hip (and hypnotic) playlists to go along with our movements and make the sweat worth it! The only thing I hate is that I have to wonder “What is the name of that damn song?” if I hear something I love but haven’t heard before.
So to fill the void, I decided to curate…
