I went to my 10 year high school reunion last weekend. I dreaded the idea of going. I already see the people, my friends, from high school I want to see. I’ve spent the last 10 years avoiding those awkward moments where someone from high school and I are in the same vicinity. Do weContinue reading “Comfort Zones and Palace Walls”

I know, I’m two days late in posting this. But it’s ok, Jasmine said it was fine. The good thing about this blog is that I can talk to cartoon characters like they’re real and it’s not as weird as if I talked to them and there wasn’t a blog. Maybe I should rethink thisContinue reading “It’s Time For Some Wishes… I Mean Goals”

November maybe isn’t the most strategic time to feature a princess who lives in a desert. So, where would Jasmine want to go if she lived in temperate Ohio and wanted to explore?

See people for who they really are, beyond how they look orContinue reading “End of the Month Goals Update”

I have a good excuse for wrapping up Belle a day late. I was in the ER last night. I’m ok, but I have bronchitis. They decided this after an EKG, blood tests, and a chest x-ray. Better safe than sorry, though. But enough about that, watch the video below. (Fun fact: this scene isContinue reading “More Than I Can Tell”

I have 323 pages of Little Women left to read. Considering the novel is 777 pages long, part of me thinks this is a great triumph. The other part of me is pulling her hair out wondering how she’s going to finish reading 323 pages in 2 days, if I count today. For as long asContinue reading “Book Blocked”

I’m a few days late with this post. In my mind everyone is just anticipating the 15th of each month to see what my favorite things about each princess are and what my goals will be. So, I hope I didn’t disappoint. (If you are just now noticing that I post this type of postContinue reading “Be My Guest and Enjoy this Mid-Month Goals Post”

If you didn’t notice, I am wrapping up Pocahontas a little bit late. I’ve been struggling the past few days. I’ve had dark and negative thoughts, paralyzing anxiety and unstoppable tears. My jaw and ear hurt from holding my mouth too tight. You know, the usual.  I’m doing better today, but it always scares meContinue reading “Belated Pocahontas Wrap Up”
