Here are the experiences, products, and applications that affected me in 2022. I've done my best not to include anything from previous years, but needless to say, the things on those lists (for the most part) carry over for this year as well.
I finally understand why Rapunzel wanted freedom from her tower.
It has been nearly a month since the entire world has begun to take the global pandemic of COVID19 seriously and it's been a single week since I've been confined in my room.
I went from social distancing to isolation and the difference is staggering.
There were several ups and downs when it comes to 2019. When I first think of 2019, i think of loss, but when I reflect on all I did this year, there were also several accomplishments as well. I’ll be using my vision board as a guide for this adventure of a blog post.
On October, 30th, I made the difficult decision to put my nineteen year old cat down due to a cocktail of health issues that she had little to no chance from recovering from.
While I am glad I let her rest in peace, my heart and soul still feels the pain and loss that comes from no longer having my feline companion in my life.
I will cover a list of recommendations of experiences, products, and applications that affected my 2018 journey. These cover a broad range and spectrum of items, but I have done my best to categorize them for your leisure. I look forward to finding out what your Top 5 life-changers are.
Despite calling myself a ‘city girl’ and living in a ‘concrete city’, I do appreciate mother nature. This is why throughout my life, I have taken initiatives to help make our planet greener. I made a short cheesy animation in high school to promote our school’s recycling program, and recently become more minimalistic for the environment.
Today I’ll be going over low-impact things you can do today to help make this world a greener place.

Solarius, or Sol for short, has been both a delight and an adventure to raise.
While Thanksgiving is a day of gratitude, for me, Thanksgiving also has been synonymous with reunions and spending time with family. As the years pass, I’ve started to realize that this may not be the case for everyone. What a shocker right? (That was sarcasm by the way, it doesn’t translate well via text).
Thanksgiving can mean family, food, tradition, or simply be another Thursday… And it’s all valid.
In late November of 2018, Riot (League of Legends), released an amazing music video titled “K/DA – POP/STARS”. This video encouraged me to give the popular League of Legends game a try.
Initially I played with my MacBook’s multi-touch trackpad, but I was awful till I got my SteelSeries Sensei Gaming Mouse. Now I’m just mediocre.
In today’s The Things I Carry post, we’ll discuss how I obtained this mouse and what my thoughts are about it.
Have you played collectible trading card games? How about matching games?
When I attended New York Comic Con this year, I went to a booth where they were promoting Magic the Gathering Puzzle Quest. This is an app game that is available on Google play and the App Store to play.
I have been playing for a few days and here are my two cents on this digital game that is technically free-to-play, but is play-to-win.
