navigating the ups and downs
1. I absolutely CAN live on beans and rice. I grew up on those as basically the staples of my nutrition and it's still the tried and true go-to for me. There was a long time when I was on my own that I didn't have time for making food, and when I did I... Continue Reading →
Guys, I tried. My last post on this blog was in November and I swear I have a ton of drafts and finished posts that I just COULDN'T get myself to post. It was like I was stuck, despite everything technically being FINE. December was a month where I finally started to feel homesick, mostly... Continue Reading →

In that time, I'm supposed to get off the plane from IAH to IAD and then run to baggage claim, get my big purple luggage that will be filled with everything in the world that I own, and then run back to check-in to get on my next leg of the trip which will be... Continue Reading →
05 August 2019 I’ve had lists and checks written down on all of my stuff for about a month now and I legit only have a month left. I have my Global Entry interview appointment next Monday and I have my actual Spanish Consulate appointment here in Houston on the 26th. This is the big... Continue Reading →
Applying last minute So I heard about the Auxiliar program when I was looking for a school I might want to attend in Germany. I had been wanting to go back to school and thats it (!), I haven’t figured out if I want to continue my degree or get a new bachelors. I was... Continue Reading →
