Important Notice
Dear SJ Barnard readers, Today, I wanted to share an important decision I’ve come to. From now on, I will stop posting on SJ Barnard. This is a bittersweet moment for me since I began blogging around three years ago on here. During that time, I met many bloggers I would now call friends and have encountered countless kindness. It’s sad to think this will be ending, but it does not mean I will…

AH: What Writing Means to Me
Hullo, world! It’s finally feeling a bit like summer. Yesterday, we went out for a picnic for Canada Day. I had a marvellous time there and hope to do it again. ⸜( ´ ꒳ ` )⸝♡︎ Today, I wanted to share with you one of my all-time favourite authors. Her name is Ayako Miura, and what I find remarkable about her is that she’s a Christian author who wrote explicitly Christian themes and still left a…

June ‘22 Afternoon Tea with SJ
Good afternoon to you! I know, I was going to write a blog post last week on my amazing list of Japanese books to read over the summers, but alas, it has yet to see the light of the day. Perhaps next month?? Today, I’m excited to be celebrating my third blogiversary on SJ Barnard!! This year, I didn’t plan anything special because…well, just because? (I totally didn’t forget about it, honest.)…

On Finishing A WIP For The Longest Time, Ever.
On Finishing A WIP For The Longest Time, Ever.
Hullo, world! I am finally back and logged into the blogosphere after a month+ hitout. I was actually hoping to come back on the last week of May for the afternoon tea post but ended up not being able to…(I know, I still have not found the right work-balance thing now that I have work on Saturdays.) If you remember me from May, I decided on a hitout to finish a WIP…given I haven’t finished one…

May Hitouts Notice
Hullo, everyone! I’m here to put up a notice that I’ll be on a short hitout during May–and here are the reasons. i. In which I get a new job Yes, that’s right! I’m now happily working at a tutoring centre that offers anything from phonics to college prep (like the SATs and the ACTs). I love this job because I love studying and helping others find joy in it, but it’s a lot of work–and not to…

April ‘22 Afternoon Tea with SJ
April ‘22 Afternoon Tea with SJ
Good Afternoon! Saturday is always like a Sabbath to me, and I’m always really thankful & overjoyed when the week reaches Saturday…it’s probably my favourite day of the week! I was actually debating whether or not to write this post today because I have a midterm in the afternoon (on Saturday, I’ll add once again), and it’s my comp-sci one that I’ve been dreading since the start of this…

5 + 1 CS Lewis Books on my TBR/Re-Read 
Hullo, world! It’s a beautiful Saturday morning–a quiet, peaceful sort that reminds me of what Christ has done for us. I actually debated whether or not to write a blog post this week because it feels…a bit sacrilegious…then again, I realised it’s a good time to reflect a bit on the more theological-heavy readings I like to do! *proceeds to haul out my stack of the CS Lewis library* So I…

AH: Writing From Rest
Hullo, world! It’s finally April, meaning spring, aka my favourite season of the year. It seems like spring is exploding everywhere around me, not to mention there are actually sunny days. *insert gasps & fervent hopes it will stay* I can’t believe my academic year is coming to an end soon, either…it felt so short!! Anyhow. Lately, with so many things coming to a close, it feels like I’m…

Hullo, world! I’ve been looking forward to today ever since the wonderful Ryan Elizabeth tagged me to do this–The Me + Music Tag!!

Ares Prequel Review & WIP update
Hullo, world! It’s back to rainy (or sleeting, shall I say) season here. From the sudden burst of spring-esque sunshine days and cherry blossoms starting to bloom, I was hoping that winter was officially over… Alas, I had guessed wrong. (ˉ ˘ ˉ; ) But hopefully, it will start to get warm soon! Weather aside, today is a special day for me–I will be presenting to you Jenna Terese’s Ares, a…

AH: …But I Need A Platform!
Hullo, world! It is another glorious Saturday. Although so many things have happened in this world (and in my life!) in the span of just a few weeks, every day I wake up is a constant reminder that God is good. And He is able. Deep thoughts aside, I’ve been thinking a lot about my blogging and bookstagramming habits. This is my fourth year at SJ Barnard. Over the course of years, I’ve had…

February ‘22 Afternoon Tea with SJ
Good Afternoon to you! I can hardly believe that my reading break is over, let alone February is over. This month felt really short compared to January (which is partly because it actually is) since my uni went back to being in-person which was kind of…well, kind of a whirlwind. ( ´•௰•`) But overall, I am super excited to be here to sit down with a cup of tea, some Japanese sweets, and talk…

3 Steps to Start a Writing Journal
Hullo, world! It’s so nice to be sitting at my desk, basking in the sun and writing this post. It’s a beautiful Sunday morning and I hope that you are having a wonderful day, too. Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about how process and the heart is what matters, not the end product. Too often we focus on what we get out of something, not what we are doing. Which, I think, is really sad. There’s a…

Hullo, world! This week has been really busy for me and it felt as though last Monday was yesterday. Of course, I’m glad it’s Saturday now despite my piles of assignments because I get to have an excuse from them and blog. ꒰ ∩´∇ `∩꒱ And today, I’ll be talking a bit about that business in life–whether it’s school, work, or something else, it’s generally known how challenging it is to balance…
