And just like that, Spooky Season is upon us! I’ve hardly thought about Halloween costumes yet, but I think a fun couples costume idea would be my boyfriend dressing up as a bear and me wearing a decked-out floral dress to be the couple at the end of Midsommar. But alas, I have no capacity to make a costume this year (last year I painted my Van Gogh dress and it took hours).

The weekends this summer just feel too short, and I long for those lazy summer days around the house and outside in the yard… I don’t want to waste my vacation days doing nothing at home, but boy, it doesn’t feel much like summer without that lounging. Thankfully, I have a mini-getaway this weekend that I’m so looking forward to! Continue reading “July 2023 Month in Review”

I helped a friend move into a new apartment recently, and it made me realize I never shared photos of my own place back when I moved in over the summer! While I lived in a “real” off-campus apartment with a roommate my junior year of college, this is really my first adult apartment—living completely on my own, having full control of the decorations, furnishing a whole space, etc. It was a lot of decision-making but so much fun to have a place to call entirely my own.
