In case you’re unfamiliar with what a Grocery Outlet is, let me give you a quick rundown. Grocery Outlet is a discount grocery store where everything is purchased wholesale from other grocery stores’ leftover stock. Each location has its own purchasing ability, which means each outlet will have some cross-over of items or have a …

Spark-less
I am going to be honest and say that I’ve been deeply struggling with finding that creative spark. I have a few creative outlets that I want to pursue: writing, music, and photography. I know I enjoy each one, but I can’t seem to keep a disciplined routine for each one. My desire to be …
winding wandering ways
Hello. Consider this a short update of my life. A lot has changed; a lot hasn’t. Let’s start with what hasn’t. I am still at my same employer, in the same city, and living in the same place. That means much of my day-to-day is still exactly how I described it in my last post. …
i got a cat
I got a cat. His name is Macaroni, but I call him Mac for short. He is a black and white, domestic shorthair. At 3 years old and 11 pounds, he is still one cuddly boy. He loves to be pet, held, and given as much attention as possible. Mac is also pretty vocal, so …
Vivian the Volvo
I drive a 1986 Volvo 240 DL; the DL stands for DeLuxe. Not that is any glamorous about the car. I have named her Vivian (I’m a sucker for alliteration) and have only had her for about a year and a bit yet I am utterly attached to her. Yes, she looks like a brick …
a small prank
I was having a conversation with a friend at a small house party one day about how wrong she was regarding the GameStock stock. She firmly believes that the stock will ‘moon’ too far beyond $1000. Maybe all the way to $10,000. Could it go further? As far as she is concerned, it totally could. …
nyu part 2
This is not a happy blog post, but neither is it a sad one. Instead, it is a blog post that wants to say: I am no longer going to NYU. The simple reason? $113,000. That number is the total that would be paid back after an estimated 20 years of paying them back. It …
paris
May 29, 2022 I went to Paris on a solo trip for seven days. I honestly can’t believe I did it. It seemed so out of character to just suddenly hop on a plane and jet off to a foreign country. In fact, I booked the tickets two months out from when I was going. …
nyu
I decided to go to NYU. It was a tough decision to make, actually. I know it seems crazy to think that something like getting accepted into NYU could be a difficult decision, but it was. There is a tremendous amount of debt that I will be taking on…it should be worth it. This means …
fear
I have been quiet on my website for longer than I wanted. To be totally honest, I think it’s because I’m fearful of being vulnerable. This little piece is just to keep someone out there updated. I mentioned in my last post that I plan on posting about photography and whatnot, but I might make …
