The Town Scribe

Guysss, Australia was a dream! I know that this was already my third trip there, but the views just never get old and I can easily say that this was one of the best trips I've ever taken. Obviously, the best thing ever was getting to meet my chicken nugget niece Laylah for the first time. She is such a fierce little daredevil who never sits still but has the funniest facial expressions and word pronunciations- love her with all my heart. Hanging out with sweet Dedric was a treat as well, as soon as he woke up I would hear him yell "Daddy! Mommy! Auttieeeee!" from his room. Shortly after we arrived, Sabir and I left up north to stay at a pretty sweet AirBNB located in North Beach, just one block from the beach. I truly just wanna describe every beach as "the most incredible beach" but don't wanna lose credibility with my readers, but really, every beach we went to was the most incredible beach.

This peanut is the cutest ever; love my niece so much💜

Went up to Larch Mountain with friends for the first time yesterday and had such a blast. Stuck in the snow//broke a sled//sang by a fire//got a snow exfoliation facial x 4//crazy snowball fight//hot tea//sun//frozen. It's so good to spend time with such great friends.

Reality: probably still need to go to work. Realized: It's late, I'm sick, need to go to sleep. Goodnight loves.

I had an amazing birthday that I celebrated with special friends and cannot believe that I am already 23. I spent Christmas with my family and after the Christmas concert at my church, I spent time with friends hanging out in Portland. New Year's was spent with my church youth in prayer, worship and fun- after which I had an after party at my place. I have so enjoyed being able to spend so much time with friends this past month and am kind of sad that they have to go back to school and I have to spend more time at work. On the other hand I am ready for life to quiet down a little bit. One of my New Year's Resolutions has been to build routine into my life so that I can be more productive. While I was in school many things were chaotic and unpredictable- now that I have more stability in my life I want to work on creating good habits and sticking to them. The last chapter o...
