I have to see things through.

Growing up, I've always been someone who had to see things through til the end. Even if I hated a book or movie, I had to finish it. I had to see how it ended. I had this weird worry that if I stopped reading or watching, there was a possibility that it could get better, and I would miss...

melina's book club | #14

I'm back again with another book post. Once the weather starts to cool down, I tend to read a lot more. There's honestly nothing better than being snuggled up on the couch, wrapped in a blanket, reading a great book. I've been trying really hard to stay away from the Christmas books.

I was watching some YouTube videos, and I came upon one that talked about the fact that a lot of online personalities have a persona or a character they play and show off to people online.

an ode to long distance relationships.

Long distance relationships, whether their friendships or romantic relationships are difficult. They take a lot of communication, trust, and commitment. It's not like a closer relationship where you can see each other once a week, or 2-3 times a month. Spending quality time with someone is so important to keeping a strong bond between people, but when you live far...

dear diary,

Today was the fall launch for Lost in Aster. We have 262 followers on Instagram (currently at 275). We are increasingly getting more and more sales, so that's exciting.

a very delayed...summer favorites.

So while I was on my unofficial blogging break, I missed posting my summer favorites. They're not necessarily favorites that can only be used throughout the Summer, but they were the things that I used, watched, and listened to throughout the Summer.
