I need to vent because I quite literally might go insane right now if I don’t start writing. I’ve had a lot of pent up anxiety and anger at my world today. Sheer rage to be honest. I’ve been feeling frustrated, stuck, upset… just so unhappy thinking about my current situation, my future, and the life I want to live. And when I’m like the … Continue reading Vents by Jess: Matthew 6:25 and worrying about life
Given the fact that during this time of social distancing my life has fallen apart and back together more times than I can count… No, seriously. I have experienced every human emotion possible. I have had productive days where I felt on top of the world and equipped to tackle infinite tasks as well as week-long periods of depression where I couldn’t even be bothered … Continue reading Social Distancing: How to have your life not fall apart during quarantine
Consistently across several life stages, I’ve found myself longing for the future and having to remind myself to be present and enjoy the “right now”. Like when I was 12, I wanted nothing more than to be 16 and be a teenager. And when I was in high school, I wanted to be in college and feel true freedom. And when I was in college, … Continue reading Vents by Jess: Longing for the future
I got a lot of good responses to my last Boxycharm review, and while I might have skipped last month, I am back with another one! My goal is going to be to do these monthly, but it will also depend on my ability to thoroughly test the products each month. Also, bare with me as I find an overall flow for each of these … Continue reading Review: February Boxycharm #BoxyAdore
I have never been more ready for a semester to be over. I know I say that every semester, but this one is different. Granted, they’re all different. College is like a video game; each semester, a new level. And with each new level, the difficulty increases. Until you ultimately lose all your lives and it’s game over. Okay, that was a tad dramatic, but … Continue reading Vents by Jess: Feeling overwhelmed, spreading yourself too thin, and some advice to current students
Something I’m going to start doing monthly is reviewing my Boxycharm box! I’ve been subscribed to this box since about May, so I might as well review the contents each month and spill the tea on the products one might encounter if they purchase a Boxycharm subscription (the value is seriously insane). For those of you who are unfamiliar, Boxycharm is a monthly subscription service … Continue reading Review: December Boxycharm
It’s been over two weeks now… and I still can’t get over it. I don’t even know WHERE to begin; I just knew I wanted to write this. I guess I’ll start with proclaiming my undying love for Frank. His stage name is Hobo Johnson and contradictory to what you might assume, he is in fact *not* a hobo… anymore. Well, he was wearing the … Continue reading My Second Time Seeing Hobo Johnson in Concert
I told you guys last month to get ready for new content. It’s time. I’m starting a new section of my blog (along with probably others to come in the future) devoted to my faith. I’ve been messing with the idea for a while, and I think it’s something I really want to write about as I see it being a positive and reflective experience for myself … Continue reading The Loudest Voice
I could write this lengthy apology post about how I’m sorry that I haven’t made a post in six months, that I just got too caught up and busy with life, that I promise to be more on top of things, filled with excuses and empty gestures galore. You know how it goes. But you don’t wanna hear that and I don’t wanna write that. … Continue reading Where have I been?
