🎀 29 Things I Love — Part 2

Birthday‑week edition, continued — because 29 deserves more than one post.

Part one was the cozy, sentimental side of me. Part two? This is the “I’m a little chaotic, a little dramatic, and very much a person with specific interests” section. Some things will make perfect sense, some will be completely unhinged, and all of them are very me.

Let’s get into it.

16. Dying My Hair

Me and Izzy once counted how many times I’ve dyed my hair… and it was over forty different combos. Forty. I love changing my hair, but I’ve been giving it a break to get it healthy again. Don’t worry the chaos colors will return. i miss the red…..

17. Outside

I love being outdoors. Yes, it’s hot basically all the time, but stepping outside, even for a minute, just makes me feel better. Sunshine therapy is real.

18. Cleaning

Cleaning and organizing calm me down instantly. I don’t know if it’s the OCD or just my brain needing structure, but when I’m stressed, organizing something feels like hitting a reset button.

19. Board Games

Any board game, any time. Me and Izzy will grab some random game we never played as kids and end up obsessed. My favorites are Clue and Scattergories elite vibes.

20. Night

I love the night. Darkness feels safe to me. 9 PM to 4 AM is my time quiet, calm, and exactly when my brain decides to be its best self. call me crazy.. i dare you.

21. The Beach (Mostly at Night)

I grew up going to the beach a lot. I hate sand, but I love the water. And nighttime at the beach? Listening to the waves and zoning out? Nothing beats it.

22. Star Wars

This one is obvious. I will always love the older Star Wars movies. Jar Jar is still my favorite (don’t judge me), and rewatching them is comfort.

23. Pink

Pink is my color. I did a whole post about it. It’s cute, it’s soft, it makes me happy — that’s it.

24. Pikmin

I love Pikmin. All of them. I want them everywhere. They’re adorable and I refuse to apologize for it.

25. Older Cartoons

I found a corner of YouTube that posts old Cartoon Network shows with the original bumpers and commercials… and it makes me so happy. It’s like stepping back into childhood for a minute. So i put them on and work or just watch.

26. Weekends With Izzy

My weekends with Izzy are sacred. Even when we do absolutely nothing, they’re the best days. I feel safe, happy, and able to breathe without worrying about life for a bit.

27. Cows and Alligators

My two favorite animals. Cows are adorable and I grew up around them. Alligators are cute in a scary way and scary in a cute way perfect balance.

28. Hamilton

I watch and listen to Hamilton way too much. I don’t know why it has such a hold on me, but it does. I even got Izzy to watch it, and she loved it.

29. My Life

I’ve gone through a lot. I’ve lost a lot. But I also have people who care about me, who love me, who show up for me. And I show up for them. At the end of the day, I know who I can trust. I know who’s real. And even with everything I’ve lost, I’m proud of the life I’m building and proud of myself for still being here, still growing, still choosing better.
