Life Update ~ Promise

   So, I've tried to post more often, but I'm still not very consistent, and here's why.

   I got a job. Yep. People, long hours, money,and responsibility. It's not easy, but I think it's good for me. I've discovered what being an adult entails and how to manage my time and energy more efficiently. That doesn't mean I function as an adult all the time, but it is getting me used to it.

   School. I'm in my senior year of high school. I'm almost done! Schooling is hard for me because I'm a 'big picture' person and I have a hard time focusing on the little things everyday. All I see is the vast amount of hours I have to do, and that can be very overwhelming for me. My Mom, however, is an excellent teacher and is a great help to me, especially in math. I'm just trying to take it one day at a time and focus on what I'm getting done. Fortunately, I was wise and knocked out a bunch of credits before my last year, so I actually don't have a ton of school to accomplish. I'm hoping to pick up a few classes I'll enjoy as well. I really wanted my last year of high school to be fun and less stressful.

   ...New medical issues. I was just diagnosed with PCOS and the medicine I'm on makes me feel sick a lot of the time. Not horribly sick, but now I feel a little queasy 80% of the time. I've also been trying a lot harder to get my Diabetes under control and check my blood sugar, stay on top of bolusing, and eat better. My hope is that I can get off this medicine by improving my health, because managing sugar levels can help with some of the symptoms of PCOS.


    I haven't done an update for quite some time, so that was a pretty huge information dump. A lot of things in my life are changing, and I've been processing, but I guess that's life, huh? Anyway, thanks for dropping by, and I hope you come back again soon. God bless!

Top Three Favorite VeggieTales ~ Promise

   Hey guys! Today we're talking about something very near and dear to my heart. VeggieTales. My brother and I grew up on them, and lately we've been watching them every Sunday. Here's a list of my top three.

3. Who's My Neighbor? I was cracking up over this one. Especially the first part. I remember not having a clue as to what was happening in this movie and I enjoyed watching it over again.

2. Josh and the Big Wall. Ohhhh the references... It's so amusing. This one has one of the best Silly Songs EVER, The Song of the Cebu. If you've never heard it, you've gotta give it a listen.

1. Jonah. OBVIOUSLY. The music is incredible (I'm serious! Those angel veggies can belt and riff like nobody's business), it stars one of my favorite characters, and the way they cleverly retell the story of Jonah is cute and funny.


   I'm really curious to hear what your favorites are below! Please comment and tell me! See you again soon.

Songs I'm Liking Lately ~ Promise

  Hey guys! Today's post is on some songs I've been listening to on repeat. I hope you'll find something here that sparks your interest.


Black is the Color of My True Love's Hair by Peter Hollens and Avi Kaplan. It's such a beautiful song, and Avi's voice is AMAZING.

The Voice by Celtic Woman. I've always been obsessed with Celtic music, and this is one of my favorite songs. It's haunting melody and words are stunning.

Forget and Not Slow Down SURPRISE! Relient K. I love Relient K. This is one of my new favorites. As a perfectionist person that harbors a lot of regrets, this song really speaks to me.


   I hope you enjoyed hearing these! Maybe you'll find a new favorite.
