♡Weekly Chronicles♡

December 15,2023

Hey babes! This week was amazing I am so happy I have created this blog I love being a blogger. I've wanted to create one for yearssss but I never got the time to do it and didn't know what to base my blog on. I love seeing other girlies on the same journey of self-improvement<3.

♡Education♡

The semester is officially over for me on Saturday I am so excited I need this break because school in general can be so stressful and I need this time to relax and pour into myself more I'll probably be uploading here more frequently while on break.

♡Mental♡

I started antidepressants a little over a month ago and have been loving my journey on them my mind is clearer and I don't feel that little gray cloud following me anymore. I am present and not constantly worrying about others and things that I can't control. This is my first time using medication to finally have control over my mental health. Other than that my mental health has been so good. If you deal with seasonal depression you got this girl it's tough. Trust me I get it I've dealt with seasonal depression and anxiety for years and my inbox is always open for a chat but I ask before you tell me your problems ask how I'm feeling in the moment <3

♡Physical♡

I have been super consistent with my diet! Eating clean and working out every day I have been lifting 3 times a week. I didn't get to lift today because I am currently at work while typing this lol but I will make up for it by lifting tomorrow. I am currently fasting trying to make up fasts from Ramadan before Ramadan comes around again in March and I'm not going to lieeee it has been helping me look extra snatched now! Like I woke up looking in the mirror like yesss but fasting has so many benefits besides keeping you snatched it helps a lot internally as well. I recently ordered some items for my gut health journey and it's at the post office so I'm going to pick it up tomorrow super excited! This is unrelated but last night I didn't want to get out of bed to do my nightly skincare routine but I forced myself to remember my goals so I'm proud of that.

♡Hobbies♡

I have been consistent with my Italian lessons on Duolingo which I highlyyyy recommend for anyone trying to learn a new language the way its set up is perfect for me with the colors and drawing it feels like a game to me lol. I haven't been reading like I was supposed to I think I only read 2 times this week that’s super baddd I need to stay on top of it. I have been blogging consistently and I love seeing you girlies reflagging and hearting my content it means a lot and I def need to do a Q&A I’ll drop one next week for sure. I want to invest in soap making as a new hobby for me it looks like so much fun!

♡Plans For The Weekend♡

I have a trip coming up next week I'm going to Maryland for a convention with a couple of friends from the 23 to the 27. I am super excited it's going to be so much fun. So this weekend I'm getting a lot of things together. I have to look for a few of my outfits for my trip and I'm waiting for my shoes to come. Also, I have my final this Saturday and an appointment with my OBGYN ladies don’t forget to book appointments for your check-ups your inner health is super important please take care of yourselves!

This was this week's little journal entrieee not that much occurs in my life but I still love the little update I gave you ladiesss. Comment your plans this weekend and how did your week go?

Change of plans..

Picture it, 2023, Thanksgiving afternoon - football & coffee in pjs. Its cold out which doesn't help the ice box of a room I have already. Packers are winning, which, after the heartfelt Lions fandom stories...this a little bit of a bummer. Anyways, I originally planned to begin my blog tomorrow on my travel day but it hit me just now as I was trying to think up ways to avoid getting out of bed, I have to be at the airport by 5a tomorrow. Am I REALLY going to have it in me to pull this up and write an introduction to my blog? Unlikely.

Tomorrow I will leave for Nantucket Massachusetts. I will be there for the next six weeks or so for work. I know absolutely NOTHING about Nantucket. Is there a nickname for this town? Or do we always force ourselves to say naAantucket? Does anybody else struggle to say it without a honkytonk-ish vibe? As I type this out I realize, it might just be me.

I'll be honest, the idea of being on an island is beginning to feel intimidating. That's a special kind of "middle of nowhere" vibe. It's offseason there and so I'm expecting an eerie silence to the town. I also know there are lighthouses there and your girl LOVES a lighthouse. I love the ocean but I've never experienced it in an island setting, so I'm excited for this new experience. Ocean means fish and fish means fresh seafood... I could be landing in my own little gloomy heaven. I've been watching the weather and I have zero expectation of sunshine or warmth. I hear the hotel has a gym and indoor pool which is also a plus for me - it'll help to keep me sane. Speaking of sanity, I carefully chose six books to read while I am away. One per week is ambitious but I am really not a cold lovin' girly, so I WILL be curled up inside.

I chose The Glass Castle and The Hilarious World of Depression as my travel books. The rest are in my checked bags. This is my third travel order this year and while I still feel like a newb, I would like to think I've improved on my packing skills. I let myself be more lax with packing tightly as I won't be needing as many things and packing winter clothes is more frustrating than I'd like to admit. I'm riddled with anxiety, winter clothes will not be the battle I fight today.

Along with reading more, I wanted to start writing again and focus more on my studies for day trading. This is where you come in.

I've been trying to find where I fit in, or rather, where a good fit for my story would be. My story isn't anything incredible but there's something to be said about leaving behind your legacy. I'll share my new found experiences during my travel and the like - then I'll sprinkle in a story or two of past experiences. If nothing else, my kids will have these chronicles to look back on....assuming tumblr survives. Anybody else reading this.. <3 Hope you enjoy!
