First Day of the Spring Semester ✨ I bought a First Day of the Spring Semester ✨  I bought a snake plant to be my study buddy this semester. Given my obsession with house plants, I give myself a month before my dorm turns into a jungle.  Also, it’s kinda crazy that I’m officially halfway through college?!
When I was younger, I would read books all the tim When I was younger, I would read books all the time. Every book I could get my hands on. My mother encouraged the reading and our house has a mini library full of books that I love. After I got my cellphone, I found myself reading physical books less often. I did have a wattpad phase, but I eventually stopped reading books for fun.  Last year I revisited a childhood hobby when I started a vegetable garden again and this year I want to start reading books. Physical books. Fiction, non-fiction, self help, humor, etc.  This will take some actual work, but when I cracked open @stephanieyeboah’s Fattily Ever After and started reading the first chapter, I found myself back in my beloved “reading bubble”. Here’s to getting lost in a good book again!
Every once in a while I have time to take pretty p Every once in a while I have time to take pretty pictures, but it never aligns with when I have a blog post written. I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m not cut out for the blogger/influencer life and will now be posting whenever I feel like it on my blog and all my social media 🤷🏾‍♀️. It’s still going to be good, just don’t expect anything on a regular schedule. Isn’t this a nice picture guys?

I have come to realize that I am a bitter optimist I have come to realize that I am a bitter optimist and still believe in a perfect world with happy endings. Instead of learning how to cope with the difficult parts of life, I avoid them like the plague. 
⁣
My optimism also lets me dream the biggest dreams. Most of the time my determination turns those dreams into reality. Sometimes, life throws me a curveball and I have to adjust.
⁣
When it comes to academics, my dreams have pretty much turned in to reality. I love my major, excel academically, and enjoy student life. By the end of next week I will have two years of college behind me and only two more to go.
⁣
Before I started college, my Nana told me she would dance and shout on my graduation day. She would wear her traditional dress and make as much noise as she wanted for her baby. But this Tuesday, my grandmother passed away from Covid-19 and my perfect world is broken.
⁣
My Nana thought I was the smartest, kindest, and most beautiful person ever, which I inherited directly from her. Our birthdays are only three days apart (proud cancer women) and we share the same middle name. She loves flowers and gardening. I do too. 
⁣
Right now I’m trying to figure out how to do this whole thing. My finals coincidentally all fall within the next two weeks so 2020 really wanted to stick it to me. It doesn’t feel right for me to do anything online without acknowledging this because I sure as heck am not having a merry Christmas. 
⁣
For now I am working hard to become the woman my grandmother saw in me and if that means pushing through these next few weeks, so be it.

It’s crazy how one word gives me flashbacks to that video, but “ohmygah, let’s get some shoes” is my motto. Some people buy new clothes to feel good. I buy the same kind of shoe in slightly different designs😅 You can’t show me a block heel I don’t like. Can anyone relate 🙋🏾‍♀️? #shoes
