This is 30.
I turned 30 in February. I was asked a few times leading up to this birthday how I felt about it. In the back of my mind, I felt a bit of worry and dread. There was that nagging feeling of "being behind" or somehow not where I should be (whatever that means). But most of all, the negativity was lost in the blanket of burnout. I was slogging through.
In the past few years, I've heard people wax poetic about their 30s. If their 20s were full of struggle and uncertainty, their 30s were full of self-assurance and security.
I spent my 20s always chasing something, literally and figuratively. I wanted to start this new decade on a different note, one that was less about chasing and more about stopping and smelling the roses. I want to slow down, pause, and breathe. Figure out who I am now and who I want to be. And hopefully, document it as much as my bandwidth allows me to.

Gold Coast 2018 | Part 1
Where to even start with this one. I'm sure you've all figured this out by the title, but I'm splitting my Commonwealth experience into a few parts - mainly because there are sooo many photos and videos I want to share, but I don't want to overload you guys, either.
So, without further ado, I'll start from the beginning.
TV Review | Re:Mind / リマインド (2017)
I don't know why I decided to watch Re:Mind at 11 o'clock at night, but I have no regrets. Well, that's a lie. At 1 AM I questioned why I had started this in the dead of night when everything seems that much creepier, but now that I've finished it, I'm happy I watched it. So glad, in fact, that I was inspired to write this review to tell you about it.
A Quarter Century
And just like that, I've reached a quarter century. Like every other birthday I've ever had in my life, I don't feel any older. Or wiser. I'm just me.
Don't Call It A Comeback
Has it really been three months since my last update? If the new year coming and going is any indication, then that's definitely right. I want to see I lost track of time, but I feel like I've never been more aware of time in my life. It seems like I always have simultaneously all the time in the world, yet never enough to satisfy me.
Life Lately: September
September was a wonky month for me. I moved away from the hustle and bustle of Boston into the suburbia that is Syracuse. It's been an odd adjustment, to say the least. Transportation is still something I'm working on (I need a car sooner rather than later) and I'm still trying to find a routine that works best for my new state of affairs. All in all, it hasn't been the worst month of my life, so that's a relief!
▶︎ SNAPSHOTS | SPAIN & SWITZERLAND
So, I've been having a tough time of it on my European Tour, but I'm trying to stay positive! The past week has been a whirlwind of travel and racing, and I wasn't able to capture much footage, but I hope you're able to enjoy it anyway!
The Copenhagen Games
Look at me, updating in a timely fashion *pats self on back*
Anyway, let's get into my first stop of my trip, Copenhagen.
Life Lately: May
Happy June, everyone! Before it gets too late in the month, I wanted to do a life/monthly update. May was definitely an...interesting month for me. I feel like everything and nothing happened all at the same time and now I'm stuck trying to decide on the direction of my life all over again (but what else is new, I guess).
