I recently watched the indie flick, “HappyThankYouMorePlease .” The title was thoroughly confusing and odd but also very intriguing–>hence why I decided to watch it. The movie f...
‘Ello friends. I know I am bad. It has been awhile since I last wrote. But, just like getting back into an exercise or food habit, it takes time. Therefore, I want to post little things thr...
Fall is one of my favorite seasons. I love the red, yellow and orange colors painted across my city. I love mustard yellow Banana Republic skirts and Kelly green sweaters. I love ju...
Good Evening my pumpkins! I hope your Labor Day weekends were full of sunshine, beer in a can, grilling up hotdogs (tofu dogs for my veg friends) and lots of laughter. I went through a bit of a...
I had no idea when I woke up at 5AM on Saturday morning (after falling asleep at 2AM) that I would be starting off one of the most fun weekends of my life (so far). I had no idea that a 30...
Sometimes you just have to be a little out of the ordinary. Wild if you will. Sometimes you need to just tell yourself, "Life is too damn short so Im gonna do the damn thing."But how, y...
When we left off, my best friend and her friend Pat left The Windy City. I was terribly sad because I love her so much and begged her to miss her flight and move here. Obviously, it wasnt...
I love getting visitors. When people visit someones city and stay in their home, apartment or cardboard box for more than a few days, some hosts can feel annoyed or crowded. Not me. I LOVE visi...
Let the 4 day weekend begin!!!! I know what your thinking....its not a four day weekend. But for me it is! My best friend since I was 5 is arriving at my apt. in about 2 hours!!! I c...
Summertime to me essentially means margaritas and tortilla chips. Now, dont get me wrong I love a good BBQ for the food and ambiance. But for some reason margaritas, patio seating outside and c...
Sometimes, I am in need of a break. When I am in school, I usually tell myself a break from reading/writing/studying/desig ning. When I am working a lot, its a break from my uniform and my...
It is so hard to believe that at 24 (and a half) years old, I am actually feeling a lot older than I should. No, I dont think I have Benjamin Button disease, however, being a 24 year old is cer...
note: I m posting this on Friday because I ran out of time yesterday as I rushed out the door for work....10 Things Thursday is a series I havent written about in a looooooooong time. This is g...
Living in Chicago in the summer is like living in California. Honestly, during the 4 months of perfect sunshine and heat, locals are out and about swimming, running, tanning, eating al fresco, ...
Now, I know when it comes to describing my personality, clumsy is one of the first adjectives that pops up in my mind. I tend to bump into people, things, stationary objects, trip, drop things ...
Do you guys ever create bucket lists for yourself? Mini lists or long-term lists that allow you to dream about your future beyond its current state? When I was a lot younger, I used to (and sti...
To say the least, it has been a busy, full and long weekend/beginning of the new week. To give you all an idea of what my weekend entailed, keep reading:There was lots of:limited sleeping.eating...
You never know what life will throw at you. You sometimes cannot plan dinner, plan meals, plan nights. Most of the time I go with the flow because my mind changes itself all the time.&nbs...
What happens when you put Memorial Day in front of my face? Well, one could assume bbqs, bloody marys and beaches. Not this girl here though. Chicago was holding on tight to Spring w...
It is currently 45 degrees with 25 mile per hour wind in Chicago. Is it really May 25? It feels like time went backwards and we are back to being in November, praying for the summer sun to kiss...
It does not feel like I have been away for a week! Good golly, miss Holly! This is what happens to you when you start a new job, continue un-packing which never seems to end, work at a yoga studio, h...

No I havent forgotten about you. I am sorry for the lack of posts. To be honest, I still have a pile of dishes in my sink, I have been only eating things that can be microwaved, and I lost my c...
Some, wait, most bloggers out in the world follow one of two paths. They either blog 3x a day and make a living off of their writing and recipes, OR they work a 9-5 hour job and then retreat ho...
I am going to attempt a blog challenge (Ive been watching too much Biggest Loser and Top Chef lately) so I feel the need for a Quick Fire or an immunity challenge. Immunity from what, I dont kn...
but barely. After a long week of battling some sort of stomach bug which has taken my insides for a joy ride (TMI?) I just wanted to let you all now I am working on a post. Until then, here is ...
I am not perfect. I make mistakes. I am indecisive. I am scared of change. I sometimes eat too many scoops of ice cream. I may accidentally drink half a bottle of wine by myself while wat...
I am currently fried from sitting through a 3.5 hour class on American Presidential History and their relation with the Press. So on that note, here is something fun for you all to digest. ABCs on me...
Sometimes things just surprise you. While other times, you can surprise yourself. But, then there are those times when you are both taken by surprise while simultaneously surprising yours...
What up chicklets? How has this week/wanna-be Spring been treating you all? I dont know about you, but Chicago needs to get some medication for its PMSing weather attitude because I cant deal w...
