My Summer Plan

Summer is finally here, and like most years, I have many fantastic ideas floating around my head of the perfect summer. Will any of that happen? Probably not. But as many people say, the best way to have your goals become reality is to make it realistic and to write it down. So here is my plan for this summer.

1) Read more
Being a nursing student, I do a lot of reading. However what I'm reading is mostly textbooks and scholarly medical articles. Now that it's summer, and I can finally resume reading for pleasure, I fully intend to do that as much as I can. I am a huge reader so this shouldn't be a problem. In fact, I've already made my first trip to the library!

2) Go outside
After the long, brutal winter we had, I think that this summer it's really important that I spend more time outdoors and enjoying the sunshine (as tempting as it may be to stay in and watch Netflix all day). Plus its a good way to be more active too!

3) Go on short trips
I really want to go on lots of outings this summer and make a lot of memories to look back on. I don't really have the time or funds to go on a vacation this year, but it would be just as nice to get out of the house/town and do something new or something I don't normally get to do often.

4) Listen to more music
I've spent so much time studying this semester that I've really neglected listening to music, let alone any new music. That's something I definitely want to get back into! I miss it! Comment below any albums you've been loving so far in 2016!

5) See people
Being in school full time and working part time means you have virtually no free time to yourself, let alone to hang out with friends. There are some people I barely ever saw during the semester and who I really miss! So I really want to make time to hang out with friends I normally don't get to see too often during the school year!

SO, this is my plan for summer 2016! What are you guys planning to do this summer? let me know
xo
may this summer be the best yet!

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
