I found a great hairstylist, both in talent and in personality – she kind of “bullied” me into getting a MUCH cuter cut that requires a little bit more maintenance, but it was so worth it. I’ve since gotten over my fear of styling tools and products, and I look so much more sleek and professional after I flat-iron my hair, and my waves look prettier and more calm when I style them without straightening. I always feel better about how I look, both in a professional and a personal context. Message me if you want my stylist’s info! :D

I’m not really sure what did it, but I’m finally able to sleep so much better than I ever was before. I think it comes with general, overall happiness – life is good and my brain is a lot less troubled, so even when things are rough, they’re still not THAT bad and my mind can let itself be at ease at night!
My boyfriend and I are both serial packrats, and we just moved in together – two people’s irrational collections of stuff, crammed into one apartment. So we had a major cleanse – at least three or four carloads to the Goodwill. We are so glad we got rid of the things we did – you won’t miss it! You think those jeans will come back into fashion, or that that second blender will come in handy in case the first one breaks, but you are so much better just getting rid of it and decluttering. Go clear out some space in your life!!!
