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) Mix

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 an insidious virus that

Blogilates Beginner's Calendar 2.0: Review & Final Update

I've officially completed all 28 days of the Blogilates Beginner's Calendar and firstly, I have to say that I'm pretty damn proud of myself, because it was pretty difficult but I stuck with it until the end. And I had fun in the process! So, how much of a difference does this calendar really make? Does it work? Here are my final thoughts. This workout program really works, but you need to work at it too. If you're going to half ass the workouts, eat badly and skip days, you really won't see a huge difference. I really did my best to stick with it and work hard at it and I really have seen a difference. The thing about Blogilates that I enjoyed is that you won't just see a difference in your body, you'll see a difference in your mindset and motivation as well. Physically, since I began the calendar, I lost 10 pounds and I feel so much stronger than I was before. My muscles, especially my legs are so much more defined than they used to be. Cassey als
