The Confusing Reality of Adulthood
So originally I was gonna write about the history of Valentines Day (happy Valentines Day) but I ended up getting sucked into my finances and future plans. One of the best things about being back in the states is being able to spend time with my cat. My parents have monopolized on this by using…… Continue reading The Confusing Reality of Adulthood
Silence (Happy New Year!)
Hi Friend, happy new year! I hope you had a great time in Iceland, sadly without me. We will try again next year (or perhaps I will be in Germany? Who knows??)

Homesickness: And yet, they grow old too.
