💛 Social distancing day 8. The quarantine so far: . - cried over stories about Italy - FaceTimed people I love in the Philippines, London, and 10 minutes away - fought with my dad, made up, and came out with a stronger bond - played Life with my boyfriend, sister and her boyfriend on FaceTime - wrote some articles about how the coronavirus is affecting my city - played music on my roof

✨just a lil career update ✨ . I decided when people ask what I’m doing with my life now, I’ll just say “what am I not doing?” and laugh, and maybe that will be the end of the conversation. But if people really want to know, I’m doing lots of odd jobs at home. Not only does it give me time to rest (which I am notorious for being the worst at), but I am able to do projects on my own schedule. . I am freelance writing a bunch, doing various projects for @filipinna, and still doing photography and graphic illustration commissions. (DM me for info!) . Now, I do feel tons of pressure to have a “big girl job,” but I’m okay with this being my lot right now. I’m still young and I think I need time to breathe. So until some actual steady full time job shows itself, one that is worth giving up my new free spirit lifestyle, I’ll be doing this. And loving it one day at a time. . *pictured above*: The copies of @modluxdallas that @jarozelle sent me with a story of mine in it 💕

✨growing up, I read lots of old books, and I think I underestimate how those stories shaped me. Saw Little Women with my mom and sis today and it was everything I hoped it would be. . ✨I’ve written a few reviews on various pieces of art and the quality of their dealings with feminism, but I loved the way director and screenwriter Greta Gerwig (everyone should know her name!) told the complicated story of the relationship of women and money, as well as illuminating Louisa May Alcott’s skillful depiction of everyday life’s beauties. . ✨p.s. Yes, I sometimes do photo shoots of my favorite books on my bed and haters are gonna say it’s extra. Let me live 🙅🏽‍♀️

💛 getting to love this one has been one of the biggest joys God has given me. I wish I had the time or words to tell you how incredible his heart is, how funny his brain is sometimes, how he always makes me feel heard and taken care of and special. 2019 has been a rough one for both of us, but with every trial we only got closer and stronger and I wouldn’t have it any other way. . Thankful to be his girl for a whole year now! 💛 . Swipe to the end to hear our recent cover, because let’s remember how this all started >>🎵🎶🎸

Happy 11th Birthday to my sweet fluffy angel boy. Thanks for always listening to me and never leaking my secrets. Sorry you’re deaf now and your teeth are falling out, but you still look like one hot tamale. I mean, look at you!

✨ Double Majors in Journalism and Fashion Media, with a Minor in Graphic Design | Southern Methodist University class of 2019 ✨ . “What’s next?” asks every adult I’ve encountered this month. . Funny you ask. No idea! Well, some idea. Long story short, no idea. Long story long, idea. . I’ll keep freelancing for the Dallas Observer and possibly the Morning News. That means concert Isabel is still alive and thriving. I’ve been interviewing and applying to some jobs that actually could pay well but we’ll see. I might just take a semester off (“off” meaning just a little freelance writing) and go to grad school. . Besides my 3 areas of study, I’ve had on average 3 jobs/internships on my plate as well the last couple years, so you could say I’m tired. I’m taking this unclear path ahead of me as a sign. It says REST. Don’t know what that word means, but imma find out. . So with a grateful heart, I walked the stage and now I’m sitting down. For at least a little bit. Then, the world is my oyster! I am woman hear me roar! Or whatever.

it was such a good time shadowing @djscmusic at the @dallascowboys game this Sunday! My story on him is now up, link in bio! 🏈 . Read to find out about his old friend Post Malone, how he opened for Beyoncé, and partied with Snoop Dog😎 . #dallas #cowboys #dallascowboys #postmalone #beyonce #dj #snoopdog #cowboysnation
