Looking Forward To...

Popping in to share some things I'm looking forward to in the next few weeks!


+ My first Dance Performance since 2016. This semester I am performing in a jazz/hip-hop number with our school's new dance company and I am so excited! We have our showcase on Friday and I can't wait to get on stage again. A lot of my friends didn't even know that I used to dance for 16 years, so it will be really fun to share this part of my life with them.

+ Warmer Weather. It has snowed two times in the past three days in Louisville. It's just been a light dusting each night, but I still can't believe it. I'm ready for the 70 degrees days of February to return ASAP!

+ St. Patrick's Day. My Mom's side of the family is obsessed with St.Patrick's Day (Mostly because of my Grandpa Jim) so I can't wait to celebrate this weekend! A friend and I are planning on going out in the afternoon to avoid that craziness that goes on that night.

+ Meditating. I started the Headspace meditation app again today. I've started it in the past, but have had trouble sticking to it. I hope that I can keep a streak going through the first 10 days of the exercise. (Also hoping to read this book about meditating as soon as I get a chance!)

+ Outdoor Running. Back when it was really nice out in February, I was able to run outside a couple of times (and ended up injuring my foot). I can't wait for it to warm up again so that I can kick my training into high gear! (Hoping to run a half-marathon in April)

+ Reading. I finally finished a book over spring break, and I can't wait to finish a couple more up that I'm in the middle of. I don't really have much time to read until this weekend, so I will definitely be getting some done then.

+ Easter. I had such a great time at home last week for spring break, I can't wait to return back for Easter! There's just something about the fresh spring air in Chicago and Church on Easter Sunday dressed up with the entire town that makes me feel so happy! I haven't found my Easter dress yet, but I'm thinking something pink this year...

What are you looking forward to? Comment down below and let me know!

Nothing Like a Fresh Start

It's hard to believe that it has been so long since I have posted on here. I won't say the break was an intentional decision, but this blog definitely fell to the back burner last summer. A lot has happened since the last time I posted. A brief synopsis would be that I graduated from college with my bachelor's degree and applied to and enrolled in law school. Plenty of stories to share from the last year but I'll be saving those for another time. Photo by   Dominika Roseclay  from  Pexels I've been out of classes for close to a month now, and now that graduation festivities have finally died down and I've recovered from Senior Week, I'm bored. I've always been a bit of a reluctant workaholic. I procrastinate and complain constantly while I'm in school with "so much to do" but then when I have nothing to do, I'm beside myself with boredom and the lack of structure. I've been craving a creative outlet, and the logical choice for...

a fresh start

Although this is the first post on this blog, this is not my first blog post. From 2012 to 2016 I wrote a "fashion and lifestyle" blog which went by many names, but for the most part "North Shore Proper." That blog grew with me from my freshman year of high school, all the way through my freshman year of college, and even into the first few months of my sophomore year. I'm halfway through my junior year of college, and for that last few months, I've had this itch to start blogging again. I guess I should probably explain why I stopped blogging? The answer is, I don't know. I guess I wasn't finding joy in it anymore, I didn't have enough time to dedicate to it, the fashion blogging world had blown up into a virtually impossible space to thrive, and if we're being real... I got lazy. I can be a very driven person when I want to be, but if it is something I'm not very passionate about, I have trouble finding the motivation. I lost m...
