While I wouldn’t say I’ve hit rock bottom in the past, I will certainly admit that I’ve been very close. It is easy to just give up and accept what life has handed you, but realize that it is a conscious choice that you are making—whether to just accept the situation or to fight it. I’ve never really seen myself as much of a fighter as I’ve come to realize that I apparently to lack some distinguishing key traits of a fighter. However, I’d like to think that I am a believer—a believer in myself and what I am capable of. And for that, I choose to fight.

Hello World

It is currently 9pm as I’m typing up this momentous blog post. It is a chilly November night with winds howling outside my window. (I’m pretty proud of how poetic that turned out!) Now that the we have the setting of this set up, I want to get right into the reason for this blog. 

As an adulting millennial, I’ve learned SO SO SO many lessons. I’ve gone through two life-changing depression episodes, managed to be employed by one of the biggest Tech companies in California, and have a life long struggle with self-confidence, body weight, and relationships to name a few. 

My motto in life is that everyone’s on this earth for a limited amount of times. It’s great that some end up owning more material things than others, gaining more fame, or have more friends. Personally, I believe that what makes life worth living is touching lives and making a positive impact. Hence, this blog! I want to share with YOU what I’ve learned, will be learning, and hope to learn about living life --- embracing life and all of the wonderful lemonades we’ll make together with life’s lemons! ;)

Sneak Peak at What’s To Come:

Topics I plan to post include:

1) Adulting

2) Depression at the Workplace

3) Relationship with Career / “Success” 

4) Millennial Dating Struggles 

5) My Weight Loss Journey

Cheers!
