Hi hi!

Long time no see; let's catch up on what's been going on with me, and then I want to hear about you guys!


First off, I was supposed to go to Charleston with my best friend Kayla for her birthday this spring break, but with Covid-19, we decided to go to her family's OBX beach house and quarantine ourselves and get some busy work done! It's less than ideal compared to what we had planned, and we didn't pack any heavy clothes or essentials for the conditions we're in (we planned to eat out a lot and packed lots of light clothes, and we really needed to bring a lot of food and warmer things for this house), but honestly, it's kind of a God thing that told us to slow down and focus on relaxing, sleeping, and focusing on things we've been neglecting due to business of life in general.

Our college semester has been indefinitely moved online while this pandemic is going on, so we don't need to be back for classes, but both she and I have jobs at our college that are supposed to continue as usual, and I have my business, art supplies, and house stuff going on at my apartment, so we're heading back to our parents on Saturday, and then driving back to college on Sunday. 

That being said, I have a big announcement! I'M BUYING A HOUSE?! I'm going to be in Lynchburg for another two years probably, and my rent is too expensive to continue being stressed about paying it monthly, so I found the cutest little cottage close to historic downtown that I'm planning to slightly remodel and turn into the coziest little home. I signed on my offer and submitted my deposit yesterday, and my home inspection is on Monday. Hopefully, I can remodel the bathroom before I move in (I have two weeks between closing on the house and moving into the house), so I need to contact some contractors for estimates on  the renovations so I can get a better idea of what needs to be done and how much it will cost.

I need to do taxes with a CPA this year, get finances figured out and begin budgeting better so that I can get back all the savings I've lost through moving, buying all new electronics, and purchasing a car by myself. I'm really proud of the workload and big things I've been able to handle by myself, but it's all gotten to me in terms of stress and anxiety. This break is perfectly placed to tell me to slow down a little bit and breathe.

I have bigger Youtube videos planned for the future, and I'll be getting back into lots of tablet and art supply reviews, so as soon as I get back to my apartment, I'll begin working on those things!


As for classes, I decided to take only 12 credits this semester (two classes online, and two residential), so my workload has been much nicer than before. The two residential classes have been much more intensive than other classes I've taken, so I'm glad to have scheduled with enough time to get the big projects done well, work at school, get my business stuff done, and also have time for relationships with people again!

How have you guys been doing? What are you doing during the quarantine? I'll be posting a coloring page later today for you guys so you can have something fun to do!

Kayla and I got a Toy Story 4 coloring book with crayons, and we plan on getting crazy later tonight and color up a storm. Have some hot chocolate or a good drink, get some Netflix on, write or draw or plan! We got this :)

Holy crap! You're literally my age and buying a house! Lol I still live at home. Good job girl! You've worked so hard for this!

I'd really want to do that! I feel like it would be fun to see my setup, and thank you so much! That's so kind of you! It's a lot of advice from older people and continuously asking questions and getting good recommendations for legal people.

Ahhhh thank you so much! I really appreciate it; luckily the houses in the town I live in aren't insanely expensive and it's well within my loan limit .:)

I really resonate with taking a step back to focus on relaxing :P At least that's one positive thing to come out of this. But buying a house is a huge step! That is really cool, but also a bit stressful because of budgeting, but also I hope you have a fun time remodeling, haha. And a Toy Story 4 coloring book is equally as cool, haha! Cause what’s the point in being grown up if you can’t be childish sometimes. Speaking of Toy Story 4 though, I still haven’t seen that movie. You have, right? Also, I’m doing relatively well overall with the whole quarantine / online classes debacle; thanks for asking. The transition is being a bit awkward though.

It's awesome that people see this hysteria as a chance to step back and relax instead of panicking. Quarantines do bring lots of time for self-reflection which is always nice. Let's all just carry on skillfully and indeed, we got this :)
