.15 years.
About my hair… I don’t usually write a whole blog post on this subject, but since I’m in my blogging era and 15 years seems special (because it ends in a 5), I’ll write about my hair this year. Fifteen years ago, I cut off all my hair. When I was young, my mother would…

Reading The Hunger Games Series + Sunrise on the Reaping and The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins Yes, this month I am reading all of the Hunger Games Books. I thought it would take me 2 months, but I’ve been flying through them. I’m looking forward to the Sunrise on the Reaping…

.june RWLUDT.
I skipped May. Oh well! Reading Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage by Belle Burden A memoir about the abrupt end of a marriage. Honestly, this is a bit horrifying and had me reflecting quite a bit. Everyone in a relationship should look at this. Watching The World Cup Duh! Listening Lykke Li The Afterparty I…

.after 6 months, I’ve decided to start running again.
Last September, I ran the Copenhagen half-marathon, and although I enjoyed the route through Copenhagen’s city center, I was absolutely depleted after that race. I wasn’t shooting for a specific time; I just wanted to complete it and feel good. Then I ran the Philly 8k during the Philadelphia Marathon weekend in November. I felt…

.april RWLUDT.
Thought: My main picture is funny because it doesn’t have much to do with anything I have listed, and it will continue to be that way I guess. Reading Yesteryear I was not expecting to like this book as much as I did. It’s about a modern-day “tradwife” influencer who wakes up in the 1800s.…

.march RWLUDT.
I’ve decided to try writing this monthly list of things I’m reading, watching, listening to, using, doing, and trying. I hope with this, I can find more glimmers in my everyday life. Reading Wuthering Heights I’ve had this on my TBR list, and I’ve been wanting to read more “classics”. With all the hype around…

.jack of all trades / master of none.
I haven’t written anything since 2025, so happy new year? And what a great way to start this new year of writing with a diary entry. I’ve been in a rut lately. Maybe it’s depression creeping in. I just don’t know what to do. The start of 2026 was actually pretty solid for me. I…

.on TikTok.
A random TikTok experiment, my thoughts on the app, and why I want to quit it. This is a post I started in October, but struggled to complete because I got busy with visitors, got sick, then visited the US for the month, shifted my focus to German learning, then got sick again. My bad.…

Copenhagen Half-Marathon 2025
Over the weekend, I ran my first race outside the US and my first half-marathon in two years. My Journey About three years ago, before my first Philly Half-Marathon, I hurt my hip, and running for me hasn’t been the same since. That race took place in November 2022, and I hurt my hip in…

.happily staying in bed.
I’ve been in this space between wanting to be more social and staying under the covers. I go through periods where I feel the need to try so hard to be with people and make new friends, but right now, I think I prefer the quiet. There are multiple reasons for this too. A Busy…
