Why does it look like the Penguin from Madagascar said something that just blew my mind? 😂 https://www.instagram.com/p/CHxdnFsBL9jqI7JlUWEyBFMX-LEj8e7z4wyFAU0/?igshid=gram35qs860s

My sweet boy... you have been the most loving pup I could ever ask for. Not having your wagging tail and sparkling eyes greet me every morning is something I don’t think I will ever get used to. You’ll always be my boy, tiki. I love you so much and am going to miss you for the rest of my life 💔 https://www.instagram.com/p/CFr-SifsY0p97u6kMVgPBGqNYjzPkEMuppruJE0/?igshid=apqe0wup2qxx

#dirty30 part 2 - I’ve decided since i didn’t even get six months before the world shut down that I don’t have to age. Plus college athletes get an extra year of eligibility so I do too. . . . In all honesty, the only difference between this year and a non covid year is I’m not drinking in Baltimore with my friends tonight. Hopefully next year! https://www.instagram.com/p/CFm7NUNsOgQEdVY_qt51NXFaUX4qebpjIbK_cQ0/?igshid=5ccwzjrfpp0q

Today is world suicide prevention day. It’s hard to believe that I’ve been in recovery for 13 years...sometimes it seems like yesterday and others it seems like a lifetime ago. Fourteen years ago, I let society and stigma keep me quiet. Today, they can’t get me to shut up. I’m terrified to stay silent. Fourteen years ago, I was a shell of a human, going through the motions and praying that I wouldn’t wake up in the morning. Fourteen years ago, I was afraid. I was afraid of how I felt, afraid of what people would think, and afraid (not to mention ashamed) of my brain. Today, I’m proud. I’m proud I asked for help eventually (regardless of how long it took me to accept that). I am proud of the awareness that discussing suicide, depression, and mental illness bring about. I am proud of my numerous friends for speaking out today and helping to bring awareness to this cause. Most of all though, I am grateful. I am grateful for a day like this existing that could bring help to someone struggling, I am grateful that people are recognizing this day, I am grateful for all the people who work tirelessly to make sure those who are most in need of help or hope see another day, and I am beyond grateful that God had more life planned for me than I had planned for myself. January marks fourteen years since I reclaimed control of my life, but I will never forget how I felt in the months leading up to that. The worst time in my life was when I was hospitalized and learning to love myself for the first time. It remains to this day the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do. I am living proof that life gets better. Sending so much love, light, thoughts, and prayers to everyone who might be struggling to love themselves today. https://www.instagram.com/p/CE-NJnrsO4jXQYPxGpm6Uf3gCbIVSRsXRgrGrQ0/?igshid=1akhzzo7tcaxm

#btnbig10k 5k complete! First 5k and first major physical activity since getting diagnosed with asthma in mid March. Pretty proud of myself :) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDXClQKH6uIPeG0UPGBSdfh3JY09VF9C2eNwWU0/?igshid=1oi3do9ywhzia

Sometimes you just gotta take a bikini selfie (minus your face) because you’re really feeling yourself (and for someone who has struggled with this I’m proud of myself). . . . . Bikini top from @haute_swimwear use code ANNIECLAIRE15 at checkout! . . . Short story time: I have always been ridiculously skinny. And people used to call me anorexic because of how small I was/am. As a non-anorexic teen it really messed with my self esteem. To the point that even though I was tiny I would wear shirts in the pool. A few years ago I decided “eff that”. Maybe I’m tiny and have no butt or boobs but I’ve got a flat stomach and legs for days and I can’t let anyone make me feel bad about the body I was born with. https://www.instagram.com/p/CDM6UbcnAqQbmkg0LVtgidwI6yeBoCSzwi9VcI0/?igshid=q17m9qch9m8b

What I'm Currently (Dream) Shopping For...Lilly Pulitzer Style!

What I'm Currently (Dream) Shopping For...Lilly Pulitzer Style! (and why I wasn't posting for June and much of July)

Hello!

I took June and most of July off from posting because my bucket lists, where I want to travel, what I’ve had my eye on did not matter. And I want to be very clear, they still don’t. The thing that maters most right now is making sure people understand that Black Lives Matter. If you have extra cash, I highly encourage you to take a look at this list of where to donate.

Maybe…

Why I Can No Longer Stay Silent

I was going to use today to jump back into regular posting but it didn’t feel right to post what’s on my wishlist for bedroom decor or how I want to redecorate my bathroom or organize my closet. But like I said, it wouldn’t be right.

Not with the climate going on right now – and I’m not talking about the COVID-19 pandemic.

I’ve been trying to figure out the right words to say, I just…

Happy birthday, dad. I know this birthday is so different from what it should’ve been but I hope you had a good day anyways. I love you so much ♥️ https://www.instagram.com/p/CAtqNntHi2vrisRqwo6shsooRwu5EVJLlkmmE00/?igshid=16j88wumz4hs6

Since getting diagnosed with asthma in mid-March I have been looking for alternatives to medicine because I really hate depending on my inhaler and steroid. While I’m not ready to fully transition to a plant based diet (I love cheese and a good steak way too much) I am trying to eat more of one. And having a morning smoothie has become part of that routine now. I’m seeing a slow difference but better than needing my rescue inhaler multiple times a day. Can only get better from here! https://www.instagram.com/p/CAQYR6CnQ3t-jAw5TRCdQAej5kwzEmsAbXowI00/?igshid=1lp0652zebz0o

But I’d go back and ride that roller coaster with you ❤️💙💛⛏💎🍎 miss y’all https://www.instagram.com/p/CAQEV47gmO5shJkrvh9jVa4EkQTsKGb-zBfTds0/?igshid=kvwpuwcujdzc
