tomorrow i am moving out of my apartment in capitol hill and while i am so excited for what’s next, i wouldn’t be me if i weren’t a little sentimental. i moved into this building with two of my best friends to imitate college dorm life and see what the city had to offer me and it was more than i would have ever expected. the walls of unit 407 as well as my balcony neighbors have watched me burn my life down but also got to watch me rebuild it. this was the first place i have lived that truly felt like home since i moved out of my parents’ house. i’ve enjoyed so many celebrations, rooftop sunsets, candy salads, tea times, morning bevs, trombone guy performances, people-watching parties and dick’s burgers here. i reinvented myself here. and i was also sitting in this apartment when i swiped right on the guy i am about to move in with. thank you Sexi Lexi for an incredible 4.5 years, i will remember you so so fondly •
three years no beers! (or raspberry smirnoff & fruit punch, or molly, or mike's hard, or coke, or truly lemonade, or shrooms, or white claws, or weed, or....) and somehow the party has only just begun
around this time in 2022, looking at myself in the mirror made me physically ill. today i celebrate and love myself every god damn day. my life is so much better this way •

an ode to the number that has followed me around my whole life. happy My Birthday to you!!
last year on my birthday i woke up naturally at 2:57am - the exact time i was born. i decided that that meant i was going to experience a rebirth over the next year. and in the 365 days since then, the dark things i was going through this time last year seemed to magically sort themselves out, i gained a confidence i have never felt before, i fell in love, i started experiencing childlike joy again, i know who i am now more than i ever have. i feel blessed to have had such a transformative final year of my twenties. 30 doesn’t seem so scary anymore •
