stuDYING

 I'm going back to school soon and every year I say "this is the year I lock in" and every year I'm a liar. This year I need to actually. I'm trying to start planning now so I'm not figuring all this out during the school year when the assignments and midterms start to pile up. 

So PLEASEEEE 

if you are reading this please comment your study methods/tips/hacks. Even if you think they're basic and I've already heard it please still tell me. I need inspiration lol. 

What do you guys do to stay organized and stay on top of your school work?

Junk Journal 101

I loveee junk journalling and I 100% recommend getting into it if you like being crafty/creative at all, or want to try something new. You can do it in so many different ways and completely personalize it to you.

I'll give you guys a few different ideas and then tell you what supplies are my faves!

Just an FYI - some people are super strict on the "junk" aspect, and would say what I do is actually scrapbooking since I buy supplies. But I think it's whatever you want it to be, and if you want to buy stuff to make it cute, why not?

Why I Left the Church

Hello lovelies! I got the sweetest comment from lovefromedenxo (go follow her cute blog) that really inspired me to talk a bit more about why I'm an ex-mormon. I love hearing others talk about their experiences so I hope you can be entertained by my story too lol.                                                                                                                                                                    Side note - idk why this stupid post wants to cause me so many formatting issues!!! But whatever. A disclaimer that this post will include sensitive topics, mainly surrounding religion. And that this is all my personal experience, and nobodies story is the same!                                                                                                                    It's honestly hard to remember my initial reasons for leaving at this point, because I've learned so much since then that it all kind 

of jumbles together. But I will try my best to make this a little bit organized :)

Addicted to... an Addict??

 So I received my first anonymous confession through this link! 

"I saw that you've been in a relationship with an addict. Can you give some advice for anyone going through the same situation right now? How do you get them to stop?"

Yes I submitted that myself lol. But I think this is a really challenging situation that I went through and I would love to share more about my experience and advice I wish I could have told my past self. 

Warning that this post will talk about addiction, please skip if that is a difficult topic for you. It is also a pretty heavy topic in general. So read with caution, love you guys!
