If you remember, at the start of the year I set an intention to read at least 25 books in 2015. Well, I’ve been trying my hardest to accomplish this. Last year, I didn’t really read as many books as I had hoped (though I did read more than I thought I did), so for this year, one of my goals is to “read read read.” I’ve been so busy…
She was beautiful in white, walking out to an instrumental version of Bruno Mars’ Just The Way You Are, which was so distinctly her that it made you smile amongst all the tears. She laughed through the whole ceremony, but you had to expect that because that’s how she deals with nervousness. Afterwards, my friend found the whole thing odd, and not because our high school friend had just gotten married, but…
Book Expo America 2015 ended this past Friday and as per usual, I volunteered again. Interestingly enough, I was really close to not going to the Expo this year. Volunteer spots filled up quickly this year and I was waitlisted for Autographing. As it turns out though, I was able to get a shift working the International Digital Publishing Forum (IDPF) Conference on Tuesday and Wednesday. I had never worked that section…
Just an acoustic cover of Song For Someone by U2. I hope you enjoy.
Life By Committee By Corey Ann Haydu (2014) ISBN: 9780062294050 [su_note note_color=”#ffe8e8″ radius=”1″]Secret: I kissed someone else’s boyfriend. Assignment: Do it again. Like most who find Life by Committee, Tabitha is a little lost. Her best friend has ditched her, her Vermont town is feeling way too small, and she’s falling head over heels for a guy named Joe—who already has a girlfriend. Just when Tab is afraid she’ll burst from keeping…
No matter how confident you may be, there’s always going to be that moment of self doubt where your inner critic tries to convince you that you’re not good, pretty, or talented enough. I don’t really know how to start this, but it’s something that’s been on my mind for weeks now and with the topic popping up on two blogs that I follow, I just feel like bringing it…
I’ve been slowly getting deep into the planner world and the vast community on Instagram and Facebook. Planners are everywhere now, so much so that when the trend started out, planner nerds used scrapbooking materials to sort of “micro-scrap” in their planners. But now, scrapbooking companies are making their own planners! I don’t own many planners. I only have two: an A5 mint Kikki K and a Personal–or medium–sized Lilac and…
My dad was a memory keeper, even if he didn’t know it. He was a photographer, not professionally, but as a hobby. He kept those old school albums that were really old fashion scrapbooks. He even collaged a lot of his photos. So when I pulled out his photos one night, I honestly thought it was going to be hard to look at them because he passed away two years…
I don’t take fashion seriously at all. It always cycles and for me it’s way too much work to follow the trends. I’m very much unlike some of my fellow 25 year olds around me! But I have noticed a few things when I looked over my wardrobe and the favorite pieces of clothing that I like to wear. I feel most comfortable in jeans and a t-shirt or jean…
For awhile now, I have been stalking Typo’s online shop for these mini polaroid note cards that come in a tin box. They have different themed boxes, but I liked the pretty, dreamy vintage looking ones. I waited until the US shop got the Frankie Flowers one that I initially wanted, but then I changed my mind and didn’t buy them. I love the concept of these little cards, but…
DREAMLAND BY SARAH DESSEN (2004) ISBN: 9780142401750 [su_note note_color=”#ffe8e8″ radius=”1″]Ever since she started going out with Rogerson Biscoe, Caitlin seems to have fallen into a semiconscious dreamland where nothing is quite real. Rogerson is different from anyone Caitlin has ever known. He’s magnetic. He’s compelling. He’s dangerous. Being with him makes Caitlin forget about everything else–her missing sister, her withdrawn mother, her lackluster life. But what happens when being with Rogerson becomes…
I have seriously fallen off the reading bandwagon. In 2014 I read a total of 15 books…which isn’t that bad (I actually had to check my reading log for that number and I swear I thought I did much worse). But it could be better. I remember the days when I would read over 100 books a year! What happened to that girl? One of my intentions for this new…
