Happy New Year y’all! I’m back again blogging on the internet after a short break, I tried to blog again last year and failed miserably, but it’s a new decade and I’m ready to blog again. I always had a fun time blogging in junior high/ high school/ college so here’s me now — a working gal bloggin’ again because I need an outlet to write nonsense on the internet in long-form because twitter threads are no longer cutting it for me. I usually made blog posts originally on my daily life, rants, book/movie reviews and I wrote out my monthly/bi-monthly favorites. I might do the same on here but might add some tech and design into the mix!

2019 was a good year for me – a few highlights included getting compensation raised twice, moving to a new team to work on building internal tools, going to Paris, France (including Disneyland Paris) two of which were ultimate dream bucket-list items for me since I was a kid, learned a lot more about my relationship with food when I was on Whole30 (also lost some weight – bonus!), tried poutine, Japanese cheesecake and Onigiri for the first time in Toronto, saw my second Broadway play (Wicked), and most importantly finally really understood sustainability and is in the front of my consciousness now.

2020 and moving forward I have a lot of goals. A few I want to focus on and want to keep track of on this blog is reducing sugar, reducing the use of plastic and single-use items as much as possible, and will try to go on an almost no buy in terms of clothing/accessories/books. I will only purchase clothing that is sustainable and that I can get a lot of use from that is high quality – no more fast fashion.

It’s almost midnight, but I really wanted to write this post before I head off to bed. It was a good new year’s day my cousins from Switzerland came over and we had dinner together while watching “Kaappaan”! A great start to the decade! 😊
