I’ve had a lot of books come into my life and fully change it—so this is hardly a comprehensive list. If I made a full list of books that altered my brain chemistry forever, this would be less of a blog post and more of a novel in-of itself. So for the sake of brevity, I’m only going to talk about 3 of the many books that have changed my brain chemistry forever. There is a higher-than-average chance that I might do more lists following this one that will include the others, but for now here are the three that have been on my mind lately.
I’m very excited to share one of my all-time favorite games with you guys! I have been playing Harvest Moon: Back to Nature for a long time, ever since I was a little kid with my PS1, and have been a live-or-die harvest moon fan all of my life. I’ve been playing this game a lot on my own lately, and decided that it would be a lot of fun to share it with you guys!
It was dark when I woke up this morning, and outside the windows of the cottage I could hear the low rumbling of thunder in the distance ☂️.
Hello Folk of the Hollow!
Does anyone else remember the Unicorn Frappuccino drink from Starbucks way back in . . . I want to say 2017? Back then I remembered hearing about it—mostly mixed reviews, some people saying they loved it and others saying they absolutely hated it—and I’ll be the first to stand up and admit that I jumped on the hype train a little bit. I wanted to know what was so special about it that everyone was talking about it so much. Besides, what’s more fun than a drink named after a unicorn?
I try to romanticize my mornings on the weekends as much as possible to make up for it. I’m more able to just take my time and wake up when I’m good and ready, so a lot of my romanticizing happens on the weekends. I try to start my mornings slow and easy, and I try not to pick up my phone first thing. I’ve found that if I pick up my phone and scroll too early in the day, I’m more tired and in more of a sour mood from then on. I start worrying about just . . . well . . . everything. The world has a chance to creep in, and I stop feeling like the main character in a fairytale almost immediately.
In the spirit of that, here are the whimsical ways I try to romanticize my morning to maximize the feeling of living and breathing in my own little fairytale ~ 💗
