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 Digi[...]
Just an acoustic cover of Song For Someone by U2. I hope you enjoy.
Life By Committee By Corey Ann Haydu (2014) ISBN: 9780062294050 I would assume that all of us have at some point in our lives wished that our lives were something more; that we were something more, something great. I think everyone strives for greatness. But how far are you willing to go to achieve that greatness? I recentlyÂ[...]
I feel I've been all over the place as of late. With trying to fix problems with my website to just my busy work days, I've been struggling to find the time to do anything remotely creative. Because after I've come home and finished dealing with things that need to be dealt with, I'm just really tired to do anything else. A lot[...]
(image: Kylie Parks) 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[...]
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[...]
Ever since I got into scrapbooking, I always make sure to scrap my trips. Before, I would always take a journal with me on those trips, but I was never really conscious about using them. To be quite honest, I'd forget about them and simply take hundreds of photos instead, then maybe document my trip from memory once I got back home.[...]
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 beca[...]
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[...]
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 lov[...]
DREAMLAND BY SARAH DESSENÂ (2004) ISBN:Â 9780142401750 I finished my first book of 2015! I decided to begin my reading challenge with Dreamland by Sarah Dessen. Sarah Dessen's books always get me in the mood to read, so I decided to start with her just to make it easier to get the ball rolling. Out of all of her books, I own all o[...]
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 int[...]
