My mom recently told me that my love language is words. When she said that, I believed her because of what I've seen in myself.

After moving to Ohio, I have spent… Continue reading Write Letters After Moving!💌 (Here’s Why…)
Whether you dunk them in hot chocolate or if you chomp on them as a snack, biscotti are so much fun. A few days ago I made them for the second time.

I am already on my fourth week of Classical Conversations, and I can't believe it. Yesterday I went to CC and I passed the Canada test!! I am so relieved.

Beep-beep-beep... It's 5:30 and time to wake up! I roll over, wishing I could sleep for another 2 or 3 hours and wishing I had not decided to wake up at this time.
