October 10, 2015 is Mental Health Awareness Day and on this very important day, I thought I’d share my very important story. I had a rough childhood, as a 10-13 year old I had to deal with things that children should never have to go through. My complicated childhood made for terrifying teenage years. I…

Music Monday: She Used To Be Mine
I firmly believe that throughout our life, we live being different versions of ourselves. Sometimes they’re genuine versions and sometimes you live pretending to be someone you are not. My early twenties were carried out by a version of Julie that I struggle to recognize. This Julie was careless, she was driven by pain, she…
It’s My Birthday Bitches!
October 1, 1989; You’re welcome world! 26. Where has the time gone? I tend to get really down around my birthday and I don’t know why. Maybe it’s because every year I remember just how fleeting time is. Maybe it’s because I still have so many things I want to accomplish. Maybe it’s because my…

Think; abusive relationships, on-again off-again relationships, cheaters, cheaters, did I mention cheaters? So you could probably understand why my heart tends to…
Pink: “Today’s The Day” Single Review
The time has finally arrived and it is everything I could have ever hoped for. I feel like I have been waiting for new music from Ms. Pink for the longest time. The last album Pink released was in 2012 and yes I know that she distracted us with the You + Me album (her collaboration with…
Music Monday: Unsteady
September 10th was World Suicide Prevention Day and being that I am someone that has previously had suicidal thoughts, this day is extremely important to me. In recent years the conversation around suicide has become more open, but I do believe that there is still a lot of things we need to say out loud….
