Continue reading →: Hair Cuts and Football
Heads up: I’m watching the Packers game and having a not super focused brain day while writing this so it may be wordy/chaotic. Hair cuts can make you feel varying degrees of emotions. I recently decided to get my haircut in a way I’ve never had but wanted to try…

Continue reading →: Webcomics and Cozy Blankets
I have been in a big reading mood lately, but it’s been chiefly with webcomics, and some ebooks for the most part. I use three apps for them so far; they are Tapas, Webtoon and Manta. They have so many talented people sharing works on them, and it’s quite lovely…

Continue reading →: Fall Weather and Mental Health
Fall seems to be upon us or starting, some leaves have turned and are a lovely shade of red/orange. It smells more like a fall day, mixed with the scent of the river, the fresh air and caramel coffee wafting through the room. It’s been a strange few weeks, things…

Continue reading →: Pumpkins, Hot Chocolate and Tattoos
It’s Halloween, the best holiday in the world (in my humble opinion). Where we can see cute kids and dogs in adorable costumes and get to see the joy when they get dressed up and given free candy (if you’re out trick or treating), and you get to see all…

I had a wee bit of an existential crisis one night before being able to fall asleep, and somehow it ended in me thinking of names. They are important in many ways, they are something people call you by, bring back part of your heritage, honour someone whos important in…

Continue reading →: Moving Back To Your Hometown.
Its a strange yet not unwanted feeling of happiness and eerieness. Of knowing the area yet not really with new life being put into the place. It’s welcoming yet still holds the memories of what happened in the past. It’s been about 2 months ago now that I’ve moved, it…
