Answering questions about life in post-grad
Gentle readers, forgive me for my digital silence. Work got so very stressful and time slipped by and here we are. Winter is slowly crouching at the door, and I have officially timed my heater to turn on before I wake so I don’t feel cold in the mornings. I am so glad for daylight … Continue reading Rhythms for an Intentional Life
Gentle readers, this weekend I sat down and read 400 pages while sitting on the couch. It feels like it’s been a while since I had a slow weekend morning without running errands or plans. Given my enjoyment with reading lately and my musical obsessions, I venture to share with you my books and songs … Continue reading Books and Songs for Fall 2025
Happy autumn, friends!!! As we get deeper into the autumn season, I figured it would be sweet to celebrate the fall season with a touch of Anne Shirley. This post was inspired by this video by Julia Sullivan. Anne Shirley’s favorite season is indeed fall. After all, she says, “How lucky am I to live … Continue reading Anne shirley autumn

With the quiet winter series, I want to take a chance to slow down in winter, not for the purpose of hibernating (although that’s tempting) but to reflect.
Ladies and gents, we’re back again with this series, books & songs. I honestly thought this was going to be some one time post I did in quarantine, and now books & songs is a series here on the blog, bringing to you songs I’m listening to and books I’ve been reading. It’s a really sweet time marker for me, and it’s just a fun post to write and get creative with, especially after the busy few weeks I’ve been having. These books are a memento of time, and these songs are a clue into my musical taste buds (and to some extent, my emotional state).
