Keto Diet vs Real Life
I’ve been trying to stick to a strict Keto diet for the last couple of months. For the most part I’ve been doing so so. I think it’s been mostly lazy and dirty Keto, rather than strict. But he’ll I’ve been living off fast food and delivery for 10 years, I think I can give […]
Confessions of a Serial Journaler – part 1
I am a serial journaler. I buy journals, a lot. Like all year long, a lot. I start them, very seldom do I finish them, but I start them with a passion and fervor that is quite strong. I’ve always been this way. Even as a little girl I had several journals, diaries they were […]

Social Anxiety & The Social Butterfly
I have a dilemma. I am at the same time, both socially awkward and a social butterfly. Maybe it’s not so much a dilemma as it is a paradox. I love the IDEA of parties, events, big social gatherings… but I don’t really like attending them. Or more to the point I don’t like THINKING […]
