Hello and welcome to my complicated world! You can call me Elle. I’m a whimsical, unique, caring, slightly introverted and charismatic, and somewhat animated type of person with versatile interests. There’s so many sides to me you would think I that I was a Gemini. Lol. 🙂 I’m also a former college grad that seems to get a little lost in the world. I’ve been a student majority of my whole life, and I’m finally starting a new chapter. To be honest college was not a breeze for me. It took way over 4 years for me to graduate, and it took over two years before I got my masters. It feels so weird not referring to myself as a student anymore. Now I’m starting a new chapter in life. I started this blog because I know there’s others like me, and I want to let them know that they’re not alone. It’s hard feeling lost at this age, but I am determined to make it. As the saying goes: “I just gotta make it!”
Today is the start of a new month. Every day holds a new possibility for change, but since last month was such a rough one for me, I decided to make some changes. I only have one goal at the moment: stay sane and push forward. If you’ve read my last two blog posts then … More This Month’s Mission: Keep Going!
Hello World, I know it has been a while, but if you’ve read my last post then I know that you can understand why. Lately I’ve been taking the time to heal and go on, but I’m not going to lie it’s been rough. Some days it feels like I’m just finding out all over … More Figuring things out . . . (New Normal)
Hello again, it’s been a while. I told myself that I wouldn’t write another post until I had a positive update. I wanted to share good news or at least something helpful in my next post. Unfortunately, this won’t be the positive post that I had in mind. Recently, my whole world got turned … More My World Turned Upside Down (Grief, Heartache and Sorrow)
About a week ago I was listening to a podcast with Melissa Fredericks, and she mentioned how she’s going to start having Main Character Energy all year long. The truth is, some of us are playing supporting roles in our own life when we should be playing the leading role. We are the star in … More Main Character Energy! (No longer playing the Supporting Role in My Own Life)
The other day I was thinking about the quarter-life crisis. A quarter-life crisis is a period of uncertainty and questioning about life and your future. It feels like a period of constant soul-searching and trying to figure out this thing called Life. It’s actually pretty common for 25-year-olds to feel this way, but you don’t … More The Quarter-Life Crisis … Been There!
It’s been almost 30 days since my last post. I haven’t really had much to say this month. I’ve had this blog for some time now, and I recorded a lot of the bad and the ugly within this journey. Quite frankly, I just didn’t want to bring more negativity to this blog (even though … More Life Update (Self-Care, Stocks/Investing and New Projects)
The other day I was scrolling on Instagram and I came across the quote: Working hard for something we don’t care about is called stress. Working hard for something we love is called passion. My first initial reaction was “Wow, That’s very true!” Most of us can relate to that. Anyone who is NOT working … More Working Hard? Stress vs Passion!
Yesterday I came across a photo on Instagram mentioning 5 hobbies that we need. I found this to be interesting because I currently partake in all 5 hobbies. In the photo they suggest that you have a hobby that makes you money, keep you in shape, keep you creative, build knowledge and evolve your mindset. … More 5 Hobbies that You Need
The other night I was thinking about the time when I was made peace about giving up on my degree. At that time most of my fellow classmates had already graduated a year or two before I hit the wall. I felt so behind. My loans could no longer cover my tuition and all … More When You Think It’s Over . . . and then the shift happens!
Recently I’ve been heavily into streaks and making sure that I do certain tasks every single day. If a day comes to an end and I haven’t done what I “suppose” to do I panic and try to hurry up and rush through it before the day ends. The whole process kind of reminds … More The downside of maintaining Streaks (Break it!)
