I look into my mirror anxiously, anticipating what would occur. As I do so, I catch sound of my maid of honor hurrying into this room. “Nora!” Lissy shouts, flashing a grin. “You look stunning! I am loving your hair. Did you know that your mom was a whiz with braids?” Starting to talk, I was…… Continue reading Creative Writing ~ Forget the “E”
Journal Entry ~ Weddings
Being a romantic, I love weddings. The atmosphere, the occasion – everything about it is wonderful. When I was little, I was able to participate in my aunt’s wedding – as the flower girl! I was so excited. And a few years ago, I attended a mentor and friend’s wedding. Even though it was simple…… Continue reading Journal Entry ~ Weddings

Meet Eleanor
Y’all can keep a secret right? XD I HAD to add that meme – Once Upon A Time and Princess Bride, best of both worlds. Anyway. This past December, my parents gave me a car (#bestparentsever).

Rest
Y’all probably know by now that I’m a perfectionist XD And despite my efforts, I still struggle with wanting to do everything right, everything correct, everything perfect. Logically, I know that is not possible. But for some reason, I can’t quite seem to let my perfectionistic nature go. Often, this manifests itself around anything having…… Continue reading Rest

The Christmas Angel ~ Creative Writing
Bam. Bam. Bam. The firing of guns echoed in the distance. Crimson, auburn, and gold exploded onto the scene and rained down like fire from the sky. Screams filled the landscape in a horrible, eerie lullaby to woe one to sleep. But this sleep, was death. Andy Miller laid on the hard earth, pain ricocheting…… Continue reading The Christmas Angel ~ Creative Writing
Journal Entry
Because I am an introvert, socializing is not exactly my strong point. I prefer more intimate settings with deeper conversations; I do not really do well with “small talk.” I would much rather a few close friends, over having several friends that are a more shallow friendship. With that said, I am not gifted with…… Continue reading Journal Entry
