Life is not always glamorous; here's a glimpse "behind the scenes". Bun (and roots!), half smudged off eyebrow (perks of being a natural blonde, but the platinum is still bleach assisted), biggggg glass of wine, jammies. #totalhonestytuesday , folks. (Tuesday's kick my booty, for various reasons.) (P.S. Big fan of this tag, @faganchelsea , & TFD!)

I'm still not sure I understand Instagram. Am I supposed to be curating an aesthetic? Can it be whatever I want it to be, like Twitter? Does it have to represent my life? Because right now, with a desk job and a side gig reviewing video games, my life doesn't feel all that active or colorful. Not sure what my confession is, aside from feeling pretty dull. #totalhonestytuesday #nationalcoffeeday #orsomething

#totalhonestytuesday I hate the dentist. Loathe it. To the point of crying right there in the chair. But I am adulting now, and my last 6 months of daily flossing got me a record-setting 20 min cleaning and a standing ovation from my hygentist. 👊🏼 #saycheese

#totalhonestytuesday learning how to be my own #fitspo is hard as hell. My body is constantly rebelling against me being successful in anything I try to do (thanks old person joints) physically but I'm learning how to accept my personal best as THE best. So, off to spin I go! ✌️🚲

I always write stuff on my hands – I figure if I lose my hand, I have much bigger things to worry about than whatever I wrote on it. I fear that I've taken on too much this semester – two classes, and independent study, three jobs. I care a lot about everything, but when I get home after being in class and at work all day, and still have multiple assignments to do tonight, it makes me a little stressed. #totalhonestytuesday

Okay, everyone! Here comes another #totalhonestytuesday and this time it's about my financial status. For being a twenty something woman in the creative field, I make a decent amount of money. But I don't make nearly enough to change out the furniture that helped me feel at home the first time I lived on my own in the city. Zach & I live in a house now and my IKEA vintage eclectic chic doesn't really feel right anymore. I suppose it's just a little more frustrating than I thought it would be, especially since I know I should be extremely grateful to even have a roof over my head! But a grey suede sectional would be so much more comfortable to watch episodes of How To Get Away With Murder on, you know? #vsco #lifestylephotography #lifestylephotographer #photography #photographer #home #interior #furniture #ikea #howtogetawaywithmurder #twentysomething #pnw #pacificnorthwest #upperleftusa

As most of you probably know, I don't have a degree and went to a community college (which I loved and endorse wholeheartedly). But sometimes when I'm walking through a beautiful campus like this one (it's my neighbor, City College!), I feel nostalgic and sad for the "classic college experience" I didn't have. I admit that it's probably 80% architecture, but it tugs at the heartstrings. #totalhonestytuesday

These words get me through the I-don't-wanna days .. because some days I eat right, try to get in some activity, stay within my budget, and try to be a decent human because I have to .. not because I WANT to. Wellness on all fronts takes work, and it's not always sparkly and fun. #currentmood #totalhonestytuesday #youbettawerk

I have the need to set a good example for my future family. I also have a desire to be the best version of myself. I am happy with my career, got my debt paid off, married a hottie (what up @nvanhooser)…now I need to make a lifestyle change – not a diet – a lifestyle change. | 270/365

Wasn't planning on spending my lunch hour and $60 at the vet today, but I gotta roll with the punches. #totalhonestytuesday #catsofinstagram #missingclaw

Here I am, sneaking into the restroom to get my dress on right. My tights are also inside out. #totalhonestytuesday

#totalhonestytuesday I just came back from getting some blood drawn as a part of a physical. I almost canceled it. And I realized this morning that the worst thing about being an adult is having to take care of yourself in the not-fun ways. I wash my face. I brush my teeth. But taking care of yourself isn't fun. Making doctors appointments. Exercising. Making an effort to eat a vegetable. Even with the move to Chicago approaching, I find myself more concerned with how I'm going to find a salon and where I'm going to find cute weatherproof boots than I am about I don't know.. Finding an apartment. 🙎🏻

these past few days have been a mess. between a stomach bug, an apartment flood, and a team of remediation/repair folks marching in and out of the apartment, it's been a stressful time. getting by, but not feeling like the happy-go-lucky sunshiney girl you might think me to be. #totalhonestytuesday
