Discovering health, wellness and the little things in Chicago.
Another Monday morning and I'm in bed drinking my usual go-to coffee, thinking about how I don't remember the last time I blogged on a Monday... but here I am. I'm usually heading to class at this time but since it's Easter break, I'm off today (from school, that is). I'm heading into work soon and then hitting up a Barry's Bootcamp class led by my friend Kate (seriously if you haven't taken her ...
Today is officially the first day of "fall", or you could say my fall semester. So yes, it is technically still summer if you're not enrolled in any college courses but for those of us who are, it's back to the books.

Who would think that starting out my Friday at work and ending it in my apartment Sunday night with my roommate watching The Real Housewives of Orange County (what she's lured me into), I would be filled with so many emotions. From spending Friday night with my three absolute best friends I've found at my college to meeting one of my absolute favorite bloggers today, Jordan Younger, I could not be ...
Happy Thursday my fellow chickpeas. Guess what? Not only is the week almost over but apparently Comcast had an outage in the Chicago area I live in and the wifi and cable are completely out.
