Hark! Who Goes There?!

Sooooo... I know its been an awkwardly long while since I posted anything... but I have been

rather busy as of late. My poor mother even reproaches me for the lack of time that I spend at home. I will admit... I have been busy because I have been spending a lot of time with my beloved friends.

And of course I managed to capture a few shots of those activities...

Tried La Bottega with this beautiful friend

Finished off the Savchenko and Germanov Graduation Celebration with the commencement of summer

Saw Jurassic Park 3D with these crazy people

This scarf model turned 22!

Celebrated Sabir's birthday with some loony friends

"She wanted none of those days to end, and it was always with disappointment that she watched the darkness stride forward"

And now... I'm packing for Australia!!! I leave on Wednesday and

would like to use this time to inform you dear reader that I will

be having some guest bloggers while I am away. I do not

know how often I will be able to blog while I'm trekking through the

rugged roads of the Outback and thought this would be a good

opportunity for some important people to share their lives,

photos, opinions (and quite frankly anything else they want to expose) with

you guys. This might be the last post before I set off on my adventure- so farewell darling internet scourer. If you want a postcard sent to you, please send me a private message with your address. (Disclaimer: not all requests will be fulfilled)

More Perfect Days Please

I just loved today. This week I got quite sick and was couped up in my house for the last 3 days, only leaving my house to buy myself medicine, soup and tissues. I like to rest, but not that much. You can imagine how refreshing it was to get out of the house today and just go do some of my favorite things around Vancouver. Firstly, Tanya and I hit up Albina Press, then headed to Vintage Books where I always buy books based on their covers. Then we went on a walk at the waterfront, grabbed some dinner at Warehouse 23 and watched the sunset at Columbia. It's simple- but its enough to make me happy.

You missed me, I'm flattered

Hello Peasants, multiples of yous have requested an updated blog post- like whyyyyyy tho? Please note the following reasons for which I have stopped blogging: IG stories now keeps all of my highlighted content from my travels I keep a journal for the deep stuff I have become more introverted and am very intentional about spending purposeful time with people that matter to me- basically all of the important people already know what's going on in my life. If you read my blog... well then, lets rethink our friendship But I'll bite, I'll provide a quick update of a few places I have traveled to and a few things I have learned about myself/God/the world/existence/life/people etc., since my last post. Alrighty, lets dive in - I'll try to keep it brief (skip to the end to go straight to my life learnings.) March 2019- Victoria B.C. Not going to go into detail but we ate a lot of good food and saw a lot of pretty things. I made friends with a Chocolatier a...

Resolved!

I resolve to let go of the small stuff. The insignificant little grievances that make me bitter and upset and that oppose my selfish standard for how I think I should be treated. In light of tragic events that have recently occurred in my church, I have been thinking about things I might later regret. When people I love begin to disappear from my life, what am I going to regret most about my relationships with them? And that is when I realized how so foolishly I had been holding on to bitter disappointments and keeping them buried deep in my heart- refusing to forgive and instead foster a deeper and more meaningful relationship with them. I realized that it is all of the little things I refuse to let go of: all of the memories of shortcomings and mistakes- that is what keeps me from loving with a Christ like love. Am I so perfect that I am not in need of such grace from others? Absolutely not! I struggled with this thought for a while and would not stop seeing my grievances as legitim...
