Mornings here in Calgary have been gloomy these last few days. I've noticed this because my room at my mom's house hasn't got curtains yet and the sun shines directly in my face, waking me up on non-gloomy mornings. These gloomy ones, however, I'm able to sleep through. I managed to keep myself pretty busy … Continue reading Polo, Psycho, and Ghost Towns
The End of Summer
If you were expecting daily blog posts from Vietnam like I usually do for my trips, I'm sorry to disappoint. This trip I decided I'd film vlogs instead, and now my arms are muscly from holding up cameras all month. At first I thought I'd be able to blog as well, but found at the … Continue reading The End of Summer
From an Airport
I stopped writing for a while. Half because I got busy, half because, I don't know. I stopped feeling like a writer. I'm in an airport as I write this, but won't be anymore when you read it. I'm on my way to Ho Chi Minh city in Vietnam, where I will rendezvous with my … Continue reading From an Airport
Thoughts on Honesty
I never really considered myself an honest person. I've been thinking about the traits I was proud of when I was younger. The ability to lie convincingly and without shame was one of them. Obviously, it isn't exactly something someone should be proud of, but I was a good liar and it protected me. So yes, I … Continue reading Thoughts on Honesty
Living
I had a bad day last week. The worst in a while, with a bunch of different not-fun things coming together all in that one day. And I discovered something amazing. Despite my best efforts and my repeated mentions of not wanting to get tied down to Calgary, in my so-called "darkest hour", I found … Continue reading Living

NYX Liquid Suede Lipstick in Black … Continue reading Winter 2018 Makeup Haul
Outfit of the Week: Bodysuit Bombshell
Calgary has found itself in another deep freeze. January can be dreary like that. I think one of the best ways to beat the dreariness is by looking good. I subscribe to the idea that if you look good, you feel good. So in cold weather, what better way to stay warm than to look smoking … Continue reading Outfit of the Week: Bodysuit Bombshell

What I Got For Christmas 2017
So I was watching a bunch of YouTube videos of people showing what they'd gotten for Christmas, and it kind of made me want to share what I'd gotten. Except I haven't made a video in a while and it felt a bit weird for the first video in a while to be a bunch … Continue reading What I Got For Christmas 2017
Winter 2017 Makeup Haul
It's officially winter (apparently it wasn't before) and I have for you all a long-awaited, kind of late, (but worth it!) winter makeup haul. This has a mix of free samples, drugstore products, and Sephora products. Starting off with the free samples, I got three with my Sephora order. The first sample was the Black … Continue reading Winter 2017 Makeup Haul
