Sooooo I was supposed to start blogging again at the beginning of this month, but of course, life always has other plans i.e. having to deal with leftover car problems, and suddenly coming down with some random virus that I’ve had to fight for a little over a week.

To make up for all this blunder, I’ll be answering the last eight blog post prompts that I should have done this past week TODAY.

1. july goals.

My goals for July include a lot of consistency: with blogging, creating, eating right, working out. For some reason, June threw me WAY off track in every way, and after talking to a few friends, they also expressed the same types of feelings. Maybe it’s because June was the beginning of summer really arriving; the heat showing up and out, along with the rain making appearances more so than it usually has around this time of year. It really has taken me a while to get my bearings, but I’m determined to do so this month in every aspect!

2. my favorite season.

This season right here is my favorite: SUMMER! Even though it can be extremely hot, the weather still promotes being outside or moving around in some type of way. The fashion of this season is my favorite: shorts, tank tops, crop tops, sundresses! And even the fruit is my favorite: I’ve been eating mangoes since the season began, I’ve found a new love for cherries, and I love eating strawberries too!

3. june manifestation.

Honestly, I was too concerned with living life in the moment, and also trying to deal with life being thrown at me that I didn’t necessarily have June manifestations 😅

4. a movie that makes me happy.

The first one that comes to mind is Pride and Prejudice (not the 6-hour long one, the one with Kiera Knightly in it as Elizabeth). It makes me happy because it’s one of the only romantic movies I love to watch over and over again, plus it’s one that I love to watch with my sisters. We randomly quote the lines to each other, or we’ll send memes about the movie to each other. It’s just a nice feel-good movie!

5. my aesthetic.

I feel like it’s hard to nail down my aesthetic. I see so many different ones: soft girl, 90s girl, VSCO girl, goth girl, vintage girl, boho, Barbiecore, I just found out there’s something called “coconut girl aesthetic”?

I feel like my aesthetic is…well, my aesthetic. Whatever I chose out of all the aesthetics to fit into my life, my style, is mine. I feel like I fit into maybe a groovy girl/coconut girl/VSCO girl aesthetic? There’s probably more to that, but that’s what I’ll settle on for now!

6. actions I admire.

If someone acts selflessly, I admire that. If they sacrifice anything – time, money, space, etc. – I admire that as well. Because our world revolves so much around self with self care and self love, that if someone goes out of their way to do something for someone else, I truly appreciate that. It doesn’t mean that self care or self love is wrong, but breaking out of that automatic mode of taking care of self means a lot.

Maybe these actions go under “thoughtfulness.” I love when someone listens to something I like or appreciate, and they do that action, or get me that thing!

7. something I dislike about me.

I honestly dislike how I convince myself to not start things for the fear that I can’t finish them. For instance, I almost didn’t start blogging again because I had the thought that I couldn’t keep up with it like I said I would. But I shouldn’t scare myself out of starting things because I never know what could happen if iI just start.

8. acts of kindness.

I’m not sure what the person who created these blog prompts meant by acts of kindness…did they mean ones that I like, or ones I’ve done this week, perhaps? Off the top of my head, I can’t think of any acts of kindness I’ve done; I guess that means I need to do a better job of that then, right? 😅 I’m sure of done kind things, but I can’t think of them at the moment!

Well, I’m glad I shut myself up, and decided to come back to blogging again! I’ll do my best to keep it up this month 👍🏽
