I am 100% dreaming about the weekend… still. After trying out Loch Bar, a restaurant in the River Oaks area for the first time and enjoying myself to no end just yesterday… can you really blame me?

SHOOT DAY: BEHIND THE SCENES

Posted on September 6, 2019
behind the scenes

LOL. Can we talk about the image for today’s post for just a second? It can’t scream behind the scenes more than it already does because the above image was me just last week. Here’s the backstory: Last week as I struggled to do up my pants in the car for shoot day with my photographer, a few thoughts came to mind. The first being that I really needed to look into cars with more backseat leg room because wow. Trying to slide on jeans or much of anything in a car is hard af. The second thought? The behind the scenes aspect of shoot day is pretty tough at times. Continue Reading

MY FIRST 30 DAYS AS A REGISTERED NURSE

Posted on August 19, 2019

Wow, 30 days as a Registered Nurse?! Time flies when you’re having fun. Those words have never been truer than they are right now, at this point in my life. It’s been 3 months since I graduated from nursing school and one month since I started working in the hospital as a registered nurse. BRB, just going to do a quick happy dance before continuing because — your girl is doing big thangs y’all. WHOOP!

It still feels surreal that my time spent in nursing school was worth it and led me to this point. That I reached a goal I had fought for tooth and nail. I’m not sure if the wonder of that will ever go away. & To be honest, I hope it never does. In light of having the first month under my belt, because big thangs obvi. I figured what better time than now to share! SO keep reading as I look back on my first 30 days as a registered nurse. Recounting my experiences and the things I’ve learned because of them.

weekend playlist

Happy Friday y’all! After a long, but rewarding week I am so dang excited that the weekend is finally here. Or will officially be here in about five or so hours LOL. I tend to find that even when I do have to work on Fridays, I feel lighter somehow because the weekend’s technically here. In the spirit of such, I figured I’d share my weekend playlist with y’all. These are the songs I will be jamming to all weekend and getting my turn up to. Shaking ass, whining, and throwing back drinks, most definitely included. Continue Reading

WHY I DON’T BELIEVE IN RELATIONSHIP GOALS ANYMORE

Posted on August 14, 2019
relationship goals

If you asked me a month ago about what couples were relationship goals, whew. I’d have listed off too many. Though these days I’m singing a totally different tune when it comes to relationships. They’re just never what they seem to be y’all. I think I’ve always known that, but I became more sure of that recently. There are so many things left to the imagination. I’m talking things you will never know about someone else’s life with another person. Things you aren’t meant to know to be honest. So to pit your own relationship or the one you hope to have on the basis of another is honestly a bit wild and mostly unrealistic.

How can you desire a relationship that you have no idea the ins and outs of..? How can someone else’s relationship be your relationship goals? Continue Reading
