october is looming and i'm fighting the scariest thing of all...the american job market

Me at any given moment of the day

Alright girlies, I have a little bit of a secret…ya girl is unemployed. :(

Pros: It gave me time to start this blog!

Cons: Literally everything else.

loki, a.k.a I *finally* understood that reference

 

Any Marvel girlies in here?

I, like most of the world, enjoy a good superhero movie or show. This week, I finally watched the first season of Loki on Disney+ (yes, I’m very late to the game), and I have some thoughts—not just on the show, but on the culture surrounding the Marvel Cinematic Universe in general.

dear diary: what's in a name?

 To quote my close personal friend Juliet Capulet: 

(Fun fact: Romeo & Juliet is one of my favorite stories of all time, Shakespeare and otherwise. Maybe I'll make a post one day explaining why.) 

Today, I want to talk about something that affects everyone: our names and the role they play in shaping who we are.

holes in the wall, peace in my soul (a.k.a f*ck that deposit!)

Hi besties!

First off, thank you to everyone who has commented on my page and/or followed me! I’ve only been in the blogging world for a short time, but everyone has been so sweet and kind. I’ve loved sharing a space with so many interesting people!

But I’ve realized I have a problem: in order to be a blogger, I have to, you know… blog! I’m not sure how often I’ll be able to post, but I’m aiming for at least once a week. To get some content out, I’ve decided to write about what’s been keeping me so busy lately: redecorating my apartment!

scripturient, and the fear of being perceived

Scripturient (adjective) /skrɪpˈtjʊər.i.ənt/

Having a strong, overwhelming, or compulsive desire to write.

I've had this word written in my Notes app for a few years now—I think I saw it in a book once, looked up the definition, and immediately went, "That's me!" Then I tucked it away for a rainy day. It's not raining right now, but I am waiting on a DoorDash order, so this feels like as good a time as any.
