Welcome to Not Calling Back! This is version number who knows what of the blog I started five years ago. It began as an anchor during uncertain times and an upheaval of the life I was living (i.e., the pandemic, graduating from college, and other stressful events).

 

In this next iteration, I’m reframing my perspective on writing. While it has always been a source of comfort, creativity, and clarity for me, in this latest chapter, I’m mainly writing for relief—from the small everyday pressures to the larger existential ones.​​

​

As my life continues to evolve, it can all feel too close to actually figure out what the hell is happening sometimes. So, this is my attempt to gain perspective on the constant change and figure out where I stand in the midst of it—but through the lens of my favorite activities and some much needed humor.

​

Thankfully, I have my trusted companions to get me through: Movies like Little Women, Harry Potter, and Silver Linings Playbook. Shows like Schitt’s Creek, Sex and the City, and Bridgerton. Music from The Head and the Heart, Beyoncé, and Bleachers. Books like Really Good, Actually, Demon Copperhead, and any celebrity memoir I can get my hands on.

​

Glad we’re all experiencing this shitshow together. I hope you enjoy this space where I try to make sense of how to live a life

with resolve.
