My camera hasn't been working properly which is why I haven't got photos of outfits or my bedroom progress for you and it's really frustrating me. So unfortunately, I do not have an outfit of the week for you. At the moment, my room is in disarray. My mattress is on the floor, my bed … Continue reading Another Monday
(#17) Weeklies
I've taken a short break from blogging, but not to worry. I'm back now! Book: I don't often recommend books that I haven't read myself, but I haven't been reading as much as I'd like so this recommendation comes from my dad. The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion. According to my dad, it's really good. I got … Continue reading (#17) Weeklies
Right Turn
It's Sunday night and I'm alone in my room thinking about my worst fear: The Future. Well, my future, specifically. Okay, I have a confession to make. That first paragraph was written a long time ago and I saw it while going through my drafts looking for something to write about. But tonight is a … Continue reading Right Turn
Everything Before Us
I've talked about Wong Fu Productions before in a Weeklies post. They have been doing short films and videos for longer than YouTube has existed. I first found their channel way back in 2008 and they have consistently delivered quality entertainment. Now they're moving on to bigger things: their first feature film. I liked it. Wong … Continue reading Everything Before Us
The Six-Month Mark

Well lo and behold, the six month mark was passed a few days ago and I'm still here! I guess that means I'm sticking around for a … Continue reading The Six-Month Mark
Milestone
I've noticed that when I'm really excited about what I'm writing and it no longer feels like work, I get more writing done. For example, today I finished the first draft of Book 3, began the first draft of Book 4, and typed up over four thousand words. I guess it's been a pretty big … Continue reading Milestone
Support
My family on my mom's side is really big. My grandparents had twelve kids, twenty-eight grandkids, and two great-grandkids (and counting!). Pretty much all my cousins on my mom's side are frickin' straight-A perfect people. On top of that, I have a bunch of cousins with black belts in tae kwon do, gym regulars, track-team stars, hockey … Continue reading Support
Some Poetry

Don't forget to leave comments below; I love hearing your feedback! Concrete Nothing is wrong, yet nothing feels right Every day is the same and each … Continue reading Some Poetry
Updates That Came To Mind
My schedule goes a bit haywire during breaks from school. There's no regular schedule anymore, so on a day like today I'll just stay home and play computer games with messy hair and glasses and tomorrow I'll have a dentist appointment, catch up over coffee with an old high school teacher, and then go to … Continue reading Updates That Came To Mind
Outfits in Paris
I thought it might be nice to have all the outfits I wore in Paris in one place, so that's what this is. I'd love to hear about your favourites in the comments below! Some pieces you might see repeatedly are the white shoulder bag which I got at a shop called Miss Coquines in … Continue reading Outfits in Paris
