mind over matter;

I want to start blogging more, so here is a life update.

Work is fine, basically the same as always. My coworkers are still awesome and I am getting into a pretty decent groove where I'm not restless about how long I've been here or anything like that. I kind of want to be doing something more with my life but I think my brain and I are on the same page wherein its like .. this is cool for now.

My apartment is also fine. I've been on a miniature rampage lately where I've been rearranging my room and trying to give myself a bit of a change, and at the moment I really like it! I have my beauty stuff all together in one corner, which was my goal from the start. Before, my vanity was in one corner of the room and my body sprays/hair stuff/headbands & hair accessories were in the opposite corner. It speeds up my getting ready time by a couple minutes to have it all right there together, and those 2 minutes really matter. I was on time to work today for the first time in WEEKS, basically.

Although, in other apartment news, we've been having an issue with baby/adolescent cockroaches in the kitchen.. we think we've discovered where they're coming from, but the issue is GETTING to that spot to do something about it. They're coming from behind the fridge... so yeah. Going to have to pull it forward and Raid the shit out of that area soon.
I'm also a little bit dissatisfied at the moment with the massive amount of effort it takes to keep the apartment clean.. I think that as I'm getting older I'm noticing more and more dirt. We also don't have much storage space AT ALL so keeping things de-cluttered is also a challenge. Clutter and I do not get along. I really want to spruce up the wall decor in the kitchen and living room and hopefully make it feel a little more snazzy in there. I think this is coming from the fact that our lease ended at the end of September, and since we've chosen to renew it, I'm feeling the urge to revamp a bit since we didn't move.
Also its kind of lame that everyone I know is moving OUT of Brooklyn.. so now we will have to commute super far to hang out with anyone. Boo.

YouTube is meh. I enjoy making videos and editing and stuff, but even though I know I'm doing it for fun, I can't stop myself from seeing it as an obligation. I felt bad this weekend because I've been wanting to film my Fall Lookbook for a while, but didn't do it this weekend because I was basically just feeling lazy. I really want to get to a place where I can do YouTube strictly as a hobby and not feel like I HAVE to spend every weekend filming & editing a video.

In friend news, I have dinner plans with Jordi for tomorrow which I am super excited about! I miss her face.
ALSO! I reunited with Erin on Friday which was DELIGHTFUL and lovely!! It made my heart sooooo happy to see her. You have no idea.

I am really trying to be a better friend to everyone and step up my game a bit.
