Breathing…

I could have really stood to hear this song like 4 years ago.

Just breathe

April 30, 2010

My friend/coworker who taught a yoga class at the store last night mentioned one thing that really resonated with me – “when in doubt, just go back to your breath.” Just breathe. It’s really one of the main principles of yoga – finding your breath and maintaining it – it helps with postures, getting deeper [...]

Love Harder

January 20, 2010

I saw this all around the blogosphere and I was reminded why I absolutely love blogging. The community, the love, the support, the friends. It’s incredible and inspiring and I had to post this. Blogging = friends. Friends = love. The quandry: We feel terrible. Just horrible. And oh so helpless… if only there was something we [...]

Just what I needed

January 6, 2010

My hands were sweaty, my knees shaking. I don’t know how I managed to park my car, but I did. I was nervous – and late – but I walked in. Smiled and mumbled an apology about being late. After hearing about the joys of being a member of Junior League of Stamford-Norwalk, I knew I [...]

To Write or Not to Write

December 2, 2009

I gave my hand at NaNoWriMo. Again. But I forgot to plan it out. And failed after 8,915 words and then pushed delete. I hated it all. Each word. I had no idea where I was going with it. I resented it, and just deleted the entire thing. Then I remembered that my dear friend [...]

On Adjusting

November 9, 2009

Alternatively Titled: Why I’m afraid I’ll never make new friends and be forced to spend my day playing ball with Pup I’ve been adjusting this week. Unpacking. Throwing out boxes and more crap that shouldn’t have even made the move to begin with. My biggest fear is beside me though. The same fear I had [...]

Why I Blog

July 26, 2009

In 2006 through till September 2007, I felt loneliness that I hadn’t felt since my freshman year in college. A loneliness, that despite my loving relationship with now fiance, encompassed me to the core. Lacking people to share the ups and downs and tribulations of a post-graduate life. Then I started blogging. Then I started [...]

..On finding good friends

May 18, 2009

The hardest part of moving to DC at the ripe age of 23 only a month out from college, was making friends. Luckily for me, I had one good roommate (the other while was nice to me, had some other shady actions), who tried to introduce me to his group but I never connected. Shortly [...]

Friends for Life

February 26, 2009

One thing that I’ve learned in the past…eight years say…is that good friends are hard to come by. More so once you leave the bubble that our undergraduate careers put us in. Some friendships have just fallen to the wayside due to lack of maintenence, lack of communication, distance, you name it. I think, a [...]
