encourage yo self!

encourage yo self!

One of the hardest parts about living alone is that there's no one to talk to when things go wrong. Like, if I have a bad day, there isn't anyone waiting for me back home. It's just me and a random episode of Seinfeld.

at the ocean

Present Over Perfect is one of those books that I read often, but have never actually finished. I always get stuck on a few specific chapters because something in them stirs my soul. Shauna is gifted at giving language to what so many of us sense and feel. In that sense, she's a true artist.

ODESZA IN KC

Last week, my friend and I headed down to Kansas City to see Odesza in concert. KC is only three hours from DSM, so it's the perfect destination for a day trip. And besides being a stellar person, Haverlee also happens to be a talented photographer and she was kind enough to bring her camera along for the ride.

dispatches from the cubicle

The radio silence on the site is due to the fact that I'm currently working two jobs. It's not overwhelming or really even that crazy, but it definitely leaves me feeling good and tired at night.
