Feeling Lonely...

I'm not the most social of people. I have my small group of close friends and I've always been content with that. I'm not the kind of person who strives to be friends with everyone and this has never been a problem for me until lately...

Let's be honest, if we're stuck taking a boring class or doing a boring job, it makes it better to have a few friends around just to keep you company. I used to have that. But not this semester. I find myself sitting in class alone and then wandering around trying to find things to do during my breaks but not having anything to do or anyone to spend them with.

And it's not that I'm not trying. I'm making an effort to talk to more people in my classes in hopes of having a group that maybe I can sit with so I'm not completely alone. But when everyone has already made their solid group of friends, they're not really all that willing to let you in, I guess.

And I guess thats why I'm writing this post right now. I have 2 hours until my next class and I have nothing to do and no one to spend the time with. I'm sure it'll get better as the weeks pass and I can spend my breaks making a dent in my giant mountain of homework. But for now, I'm alone, and I'm honestly pretty depressed about it. While I've always identified myself as an introverted person, I'm finding myself just lonely. I never had a problem with being alone but that's because I wasn't ALWAYS alone. It's the fact that I'm alone while everyone is enjoying the company of a group of friends. It's the fact that I'm alone but no one else is.

I'm okay with being alone, but being lonely sucks...

I hope you're all having a better day than I am.

The BEST and EASIEST Waffle Recipe! (Blogmas Day 9)

When it starts to get chilly out, I find myself making waffles pretty often. In fact, our Sunday breakfast usually consists of waffles of some kind. And in my house, I'm the designated waffle chef. I have the best recipe for waffles that are truly delicious AND any lazy chefs dream; its all done in one bowl, with ingredients everyone has in their kitchen. Literally foolproof and delicious. Perfect for Christmas morning! Makes anywhere from 8-12 waffles, depending on the size of your waffle iron. Ingredients:  2 cups of All-Purpose flour 1 tablespoon of baking powder 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar 1/4 teaspoon of salt 2 eggs (beaten) 1 teaspoon of vanilla (but you can add another 1/2 teaspoon if you want a stronger vanilla taste!) 1-3/4 cups of milk 1/4 cup vegetable oil Directions:  1) In a big bowl, combine all the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, sugar and salt) 2) Create a well in the center of your dry ingredients and add your wet ingredients 3...

1 Year of Covid-19: A reflection

  It feels like just yesterday we were all feeling the anxiety and uncertainty of a new disease that was spreading quickly around the world that no one truly understood yet. We were facing the first wave of cases, the fear of going outside and being around people and the first round of quarantines and restrictions.  It feels like just yesterday, but also so long ago.  I, and I am sure many others, am feeling a mix of emotions.  Sad for the loss of comfort we once had. Grief for all the lives lost and permanently changed. Thankful for my health and that of my family. Gratitude for the scientists and frontline workers alike, working tirelessly behind the scenes I hope that one day we can return to a new normal. I hope that one day I'll be able to go to work and not feel  afraid  to get too close to my coworkers and patients. I hope that no one will ever again have to face the end of their lives all alone. I hope that no one has their life cut short because of...

Review: Lush Cynthia Sylvia Stout Shampoo

Hello there! So I've been on the hunt for a shampoo to tame my wild hair for ages, so I picked up this during my recent Lush visit  in hopes that it would help with my thick, coarse, dry hair. According to Lush , this has: Stout to calm:  For all hair types but especially beneficial for fluffy, hard-to-manage hair. Friend to all scalps:  Yeast improves the health of the hair and scalp. For a polished finish:  Organic lemon juice is a gentle cleanser that adds masses of shine and gloss. After using this for a little while now, I can say that I'm pretty much still on the fence about it.  Pros:  Though my hair is still a little frizzy, its definitely a bit better than it used to be. My hair is also softer to the touch and shinier.  Cons: I've noticed my hair gets greasier a lot quicker since using this shampoo. I also feel as though it may be drying out my scalp, but it'll take a little more time to know for sure if its because of th...
