hi pals,

i was hesitant on sharing this video today in light of all that’s going on. i ultimately decided on posting it because i figured most people watch my videos to feel a little calmer and escape the messiness that is our world right now. so here we are.

may was rough and flew by so so quickly. the feelings of *nostalgia* were real, especially with the announcement of PJO reboot. someone recently said that we’ve all turned back to our middle school selves in this quarantine.

i’m missing days i could carelessly drive to a local restaurant, sit at a cafe, or take a fitness class. those days are currently behind us, but here’s to a better future.

xx
