Thankful

I know Thanksgiving is over but I'm just all in my feels right now. I didn't blog this past week because I was working a lot and wanted to take some time to myself and relax while off the clock. This year has been kind of rough and had a lot of life changes, but the other night while looking at Cinderella Castle all lit up for the holidays, it really hit me how thankful I am for the life I'm living. Sorry if this post gets a little sappy but oh well.

Have A Nice Day

Even though I work at Disney World, I rarely go to the parks outside of being at work. My roommate and I decided to go to Animal Kingdom for a few hours before she worked so I had to wear a Disney t-shirt there. The shirt company is linked below but you can check out their Instagram where they announce when their shop is open!

Hunkules - I mean Hercules - is one of my favorite Disney movies so when I saw this shirt, I needed it. I have another shirt from this company as well that says "Take me to Disney and tell me I'm pretty" and they are both amazing quality! I would definetly check them out if you want some cute Disney shirts.

To The Blogging Bullies

With putting my life basically out there for the entire world to read about, there was something that really bothered me the other day and it deals with being made fun of. Ever since I made a blog way back in high school, I knew someone would eventually make fun of it, which is why I kept it hidden from everyone for the longest time. I was afraid I was going to be ridiculed and thought of as the weird blogger girl. But when I made my blog public for the first time in college, I overcame that fear. I'm not going to lie, I got made fun of for blogging even by people I thought I could be supported by. But my skin grew thicker and I dealt with it.

Dealing with a Breakup

So last week, I posted about my long distance relationship and I have some news for y'all. Jake broke up with me two nights later, completely out of the blue. At first I was so upset and angry and now, I'm relieved as crazy as that sounds. So in the same style as my long distance post, here are a few things I've learned in the past few days of dealing with a breakup.

It's okay to be sad. When Jake dumped me, I had no idea it was coming. We were doing just fine except for a few small fights here and there like normal couples but there was no indication of him breaking up with me the days prior. And I was so sad when he did it. Like sobbing uncontrollably, shaking, and hyperventilating sad. He's broken up with me before but it was just as bad. I thought I found my person and when my person didn't want to be with me anymore, it was a terrible feeling. So I let myself be sad that night and then decided that I'm not going to waste tears or being sad on him anymore.

Ruffles and Snakeskin

Fall in central Florida isn't like most other falls. It's beautiful and warm throughout the day and at night, it's not too bad out. My roommate Zoe and I went on a little roomie date since we were both off work the other day. We ate dinner at one of my favorite restaurants, Columbia Restaurant, and we also checked out this new raw cookie dough shop in Celebration called Wonderland Cookie Dough Co. It was absolutely delicious and I definitely plan on going back! Even though it was dark out, I wanted to get some pictures of my outfit to put on the blog. These photos were also taken on my new iPhone X so bare with me as I figure out editing and such!

Long Distance Lovin'

So I originally started this post while I was at the airport, waiting to board my flight to St. Louis to visit my boyfriend Jake. But in Kelsey fashion, this post sat in my drafts for a while and I figured I should probably post it.

If y'all don't know by now, I live in Florida and Jake is in Missouri, so Jake and I are clearly doing the long distance thing. To be completely honest, it's been hard but it's also been worth it. I've learned a lot about myself these past 5 months being long distance.

We have the cutest furbabies ever, Jack and Jill.

You learn to appreciate each other more. I only get to see Jake once a month if we're lucky and it's kind of sucky. But when we do get to visit each other, we really appreciate the time we spend together. As much as we like to go out and do things, especially while he's here visiting me, some of my favorite times spent with him are being lazy, watching Netflix, snuggling our furbabies, and eating pizza. Those moments are the ones I miss the most.
