Tomorrow Patrick and I leave for Peru. I can’t explain how stupidly excited I am. It’s so much more than a spring break vacation! Travel is always so much more than a vacation! People that I’ve never met before. Cultures I’ve never experienced. Food I’ve never tried. Places I’ve never visited. Beautiful interactions I’ve never Continue reading

Happy Wednesday!     If you need me, I’ll be listening to Ophelia by The Lumineers (on repeat) and dreaming of being in far away places with foreign languages and new-to-me cultures. Yippeykayay Hump Day! Love, Jules  Continue reading

Today I am going to buy myself some flowers and then talk about what’s important to me. Whether that’s to a person or a piece of paper with a pen, I don’t know. But it’s Monday. And the week is full of ample opportunity. And I made extra coffee this morning. So let’s do this. Continue reading

If you’d just take a minute of your time, away from biochem modules or the Oscars or dinner, to think about who surrounds you… Do those people lift you up? Do they make your heart completely and entirely full? Do you love them with your whole being? I was just doing that kind of thinking Continue reading

Today I sat in the hot tub after my swim and did some thinking. Tuesdays are my busiest day of the week and normally are full of lab and assignments and an entire day of classes, not to mention, tomorrow I have an exam! However, as I sat there, I thought about ways to break Continue reading

Hi. I’m here this evening because this is what I’ve been thinking: It’s okay. It’s okay to feel stressed right now. I don’t know about you but I’ve got a lot of exams and assignments coming up. Hello, midterms! The stress is real and the panic is okay. There’s a power in even the heaviest Continue reading

“What you seek is seeking you.” Happy Friday! I hope that you approach today with enthusiasm, love, adventure, and gratitude. That’s my personal goal. Here you are. Wide awake and full of potential to completely make someone’s day; even if that person is you! What an incredible and fabulous thing! Let’s all come to today Continue reading

I’ve been watching old dance videos tonight and it’s got me thinking hard. I’ve watched old solos of mine (some I don’t even remember performing!), duets, and team dances from a wide range of years. They mostly make me smile and sometimes cringe. A flexed foot or wrongly bent leg still makes me shudder to Continue reading

Hey, happy Tuesday. Currently, I am… Listening to Hello/Lacrimosa by The Piano Guys. Thinking hard about a life thing. Resisting the urge to go on a run. Wondering what it’d be like to be boating down the Amazon. Wanting to stargaze. Procrastinating a biochemistry learning module. Organizing my thoughts. Summoning the strength to work out.
