The CHANGE is Real

Helloooo, hello there! Not going to lie, I woke up this morning in a bit of confusion – how is it already May? How is it almost JUNE? My 28th birthday is right around the corner, and I can’t believe I’m going to be in my later 20s. I also thought about random parts of my life- where I’m at, where I’m headed, but most notably all the change that has been going on around me. Some changes are good, some changes are bad, but at the end of the day – change is change, each one of us is dealing with some sort of change in our lives and its up to each one of us to make the most of it (whatever *it* is).

Soooo sharing some life updates on the blog: I’ve been dealing with a couple of changes lately…

• 3 of my best friends got MARRIED in these past few months. 1 of my best friends is going to be married in a couple of months. #bridesmaidlife Not to mention- it seems like everyday I see a new engagement (or even BABIES!!) pop up on my newsfeed. It’s crazy to think that I’m at that age where I’m surrounded by all that! It’s sweet and I’m so so happy for all my besties 🙂 People ask me if I ever feel the pressure to be at those life stages because of my surroundings and age, but the answer is…definitely not! My life is my own and I really do love where I’m at <3
• I’m losing my roommate (since she’s a MRS now) – we’ve been roomies for 4 years total and she’s my best friend! I can’t imagine living without her…but at the end of the day, change is good! I’m moving in with my other best friend, who is a BOY (yes, my sweet bf & I decided to make the big move in together y’all! All tips for living with boys are welcome :P)
• Which brings me to…I’m moving into a new apartment next month y’all! I’ve been in the midst of selling my stuff and looking for new home inspo to do a decoration refresh. What home brands are y’all’s faves? Any tips on how to not feel overwhelmed on the whole moving process? I’ll be writing a dedicated post on this very soon – but in the meantime, would love to hear any and all advice!
• And lastly, I’ve been feeling SO busy y’all. I try to juggle everything in my life, and I’m a type of person that always wants to feel on top of my game. But to be honest…balancing a full time job, part-time blogging life, catching up with family + friends, planning events, booking and going on trips, dealing with moving, AND *on top of everything* getting sick lately…it’s been ALOT. I find myself feeling exhausted and sometimes internally struggling with not feeling like everything is perfect. I realized lately I need to change my perspective and how hard on myself I’ve been lately. I have to remind myself that everything is going to be OK if it’s not done, if it’s not perfect – I’m only human and I can only do my best.

Thanks for stopping by y’all! I’m so grateful and absolutely blessed to have this outlet to share my thoughts and life updates with my amazing followers <3
