I honestly cannot remember when I celebrated NYE the most exciting way possible. It feels like, over the years, my energy and tolerance of people have significantly decreased on this particular holiday. I was probably in my preteen years the last time I went to an actual party. That was when my parents were good… Continue reading Why I Don’t Celebrate New Year’s Eve Anymore

Keep Me On The Road
Sometimes, I need to vent and I was surprised to see how many people read that article about how I was venting about some failures I recently experienced. I also remember doing the same thing when I was anxious to find out the results of the certification exams I had to take to practice in… Continue reading Keep Me On The Road
Anxiety from Fear of Failure
Nobody likes to fail, that's a fact. Many people have achieved success through many failures first. But when you're in the heat of the moment trying to achieve success it can feel like the road to it is like a fork up ahead and if you fail, you fail, and it's final. I have experienced… Continue reading Anxiety from Fear of Failure
I Really Dislike Facebook Reactions
Remember when Facebook was just about you hit "Like" on something and leave it be if you had nothing else to say? Ah, those were the days.... not anymore. When I was in college, Facebook released an update that allowed us to now "react" to posts to show the OP how their audience felt about… Continue reading I Really Dislike Facebook Reactions
I Should Ask More Questions
I don't think about this often, but sometimes it comes to me when I'm in the middle of a conversation with someone like, say, my mom and she'll ask me what my friends are up to like what's their current job. I sometimes feel like I don't know enough about my friends because whenever I… Continue reading I Should Ask More Questions
The Damages of Unfriending
It may not seem like a big deal but social media has given us the power to cut someone out of our life, just like that, without seeing them in person. When people unfriend me, the first thing I ask myself is why? What did I ever do to you? I remember I lost someone… Continue reading The Damages of Unfriending
Quarantine Times
You're surprised most likely why I've put so much content out this month, you're thinking, Emily, what's going on, you're on fire with you're writing! Did you have a breakthrough recently?? Yes and no, I had a significant amount of free time this month and I was originally going to save these words for my… Continue reading Quarantine Times
Things I’ve Learned From Quitting Instagram
Instagram is currently the most popular social media app and I have broken up with it twice. It hasn't been easy leaving, returning and then finally leaving for good earlier this year. But as more time passes without me checking it every day, I have learned so much that is worth sharing. Some people say… Continue reading Things I’ve Learned From Quitting Instagram
How to be a Broken Record
People can be difficult to deal with on a regular basis. It infuriates me a lot when I can't reach a compromise with someone, whether it's at work, home, or anywhere. I hate being lectured and one of the challenges I face is that once someone starts that, my brain is immediately compelled to switch… Continue reading How to be a Broken Record
Stop Hating On Summer
Spring is my favourite season for the flowers I love the most bloom during it but I also love summer. Being able to sit outside with a book during a warm sunny day, (as long as I can find some shade because I burn easily) is the best thing ever. I also love watching bumblebees… Continue reading Stop Hating On Summer
