It’s Tuesday & I Have No Idea What To Blog About

Happy Tuesday!!! Today was a really great day, but I had no idea what to blog about. Tuesday's are my go-to posting day, so I figured this could be more of a life update most. It has officially been a month of working from home and social distancing. I have gotten used to being home…

10 Things I Learned During My First Year of Work

As promised, I am posting more consistently! This is a post I was already thinking of a week after starting my first job (lol you have to plan ahead haha). It is pretty crazy to think I have been working for over a year now. My mindset has shifted so much this past year in…

No Room for Negativity

My levels of positivity have been all over the place the past few years. There was a period of my life where I don't think I experienced an emotion other than pure happiness. There have also been times in my life where I wasn't so positive. Overall, at this moment in my life, I would…

Sunday Night Routine

Happy Sunday! I always have mixed feelings about Sundays because I love relaxing and getting my life together, but I also get sad because the weekend is over. However, my Sundays usually look pretty similar each week. Whether I am home in Chicago all weekend or on a little weekend trip, I make sure I…

My Best Habits

Happy Wednesday! I saw the word habit on Instagram the other day and that's where this short post came from. I am always trying to build healthy and positive habits. I feel like they can change sometimes, but these are the ones I am always good about. 1. Drinking a ton of water 2. Going…

Positive Impacts On My Workday

Obviously now that I am working, work is a huge part of my life. I am beginning my third month of my first real job. I'd say I have a good idea of what my working life is like now and what helps me have better days at work. I feel really happy today because…

My First Job

I got my first job in high school. I remember applying to a bunch of places to work, but I eventually ended up working at Kroger. For those of you who don't have Kroger in your state or country, it's a grocery store. And probably my favorite grocery store to shop at! I was hired…

Goals For The Week 8/19/18

I think this will be my last goals post for awhile. I feel like I have been holding myself more accountable for my goals lately and actually getting the important ones accomplished. Also, over the next few weeks I feel like my goals will be very similar as work will be a really big part…

Books I Want To Read

Let's talk books! I haven't been reading much the past couple weeks due to packing, moving into my new apartment, and going to work, but I need to make some more time. Mostly because I want to read and love reading. I am currently finishing up "The Defining Decade" by Meg Jay, which I have…

Goals For The Week 8/12/18

It is Sunday, so that means it is time for me to hold myself accountable for my goals and set any new ones. Last week, I didn't have a ton of goals, but I did a good job meeting them compared to prior weeks. I went for a run around my new neighborhood (planning for…

My First Week in Chicago

I have officially lived in Chicago for one week! Hopefully you all aren't completely annoyed by all of the "Chicago" references I have made on my blog recently. I promise there will be other content/topics soon, this is just my life at the moment. There have been a lot of fun moments during my first…

My First Day Of Work

I officially had my first day of work. Today was just orientation so we got done super early-- usually I will work until 5 or 6 like most people do. I thought I'd share how my first day went and just my overall feelings about starting my actual adult life. I wasn't nervous going into…
