S2: E2 Goals

-

We are two weeks into the new year, woo! Have you made any goals yet?? If you haven't, there is always time to do so. Let this be your motivation to get started!

Besides creating this blog, another thing I wanted to try (and started in quarantine) was bullet journaling! I had the tools for it, but could not find the motivation. There is a lot more to bullet journaling than you would think! I already have a post about how I started, so if you missed it and want to check it out, click the link below.

S1: E3 Bit the Bullet

Since starting last April, I have only done 4 pages. But because I am a designer, artist, organization freak, and somewhat of a perfectionist, these pages take a lot of time. I have to plan them out, write it all in pencil before committing to ink, and don't even get me started on picking color schemes! I figured the new year would be the perfect occasion to jump back in and start again! The pictures below show what I have worked on so far, and once again, it is even Brownie approved, haha!



Besides blogging consistently, and working more in my bullet journal, I also mentioned in my last post about starting an email newsletter. Look at that! 3 of my goals are already in progress and it's only the second week of the year! Just got to make sure I keep up with them all. I had hoped to send out my first introduction newsletter tonight, but I'm going to allow more time for people to sign up since I am just launching this. If you have not signed up yet and want to, click the link below, it's super easy! If you already have done so, thank you so much! This is something I want to try just for fun, and that's my main intention, is for it to be FUN!

Marilyn Meets World Newsletter Sign Up

Take a moment to sit down and think about your own goals. They can be big, small, personal, career geared, or anything at all! When you come up with some, please share with me if you wish. I would love to help you achieve them in any way I can. Even though we all spent most of 2020 apart, let's let 2021 be the year we stay connected and supportive.

Until next time, wishing you all love & magic.✨

    I have no idea about bullet.
    I tried adding myself to your newsletter but as per usual, I struggle. It didn't like my month and dat of birth.

S2: E10 Let Go

I have always had a hard time with changes throughout my life. Even though it is the one constant thing to happen. But as I get older, I am realizing how much it is needed and I have been embracing it. Life would be boring if everything stayed the same. Imagine where we would be today if things didn't change and progress.  Two years ago, I was in need of a new car REAL BAD. My Ford Taurus was good to me for my first years of driving, and more. It got me here and there, but eventually, it was time for something different. Me being me, I felt bad having to get rid of it and thinking about all the good times driving my friends around and going to fun places. But it wasn't even safe to drive anymore... no power steering, the floor was rotted, my door wouldn't shut in the winter time, needless to say, I had very low standards when looking for a new one. Now I have my Nissan Sentra and I love it SO MUCH! There are so many new features that I didn't have before, and the overal...

S2: E9 Yogurt Cup

If you know me at all, then you probably know that my all time favorite show is Boy Meets World. Clearly, because my whole brand is even based off of it! One of my favorite moments in the show is when Eric and Cory go on a road trip together. What Cory doesn't know is that for Eric, this isn't just a trip. He decides he isn't going home afterwards. Along their travels though, they come across the World's Largest Yogurt Cup, which they must visit! There is even a Parade of Sprinkles that Cory checks out, but doesn't get the memo about wearing goggles to protect his eyes. 😂 (Images found on Google from the show, I do not own the rights to them - sharing for visual purpose) I feel I am a lot like Cory Matthews in many ways, but one being how I would be just as excited for this random iconic monument. My dream is to visit all 50 states and I would hope to find as many of the "World's Largest" things along the way! SADLY, this one was just made up for the ...

S3: E9 Sophomore Slump or Comeback of the Year

"Never apologize  for how you feel,  for how you hurt,  for how much you love." I'll be honest with you. I feel like I have been in a bit of a slump the past 2 months. Waves of loneliness, FOMO, fear in general, being different or having unique interests, the constant comparison and not being where I "should be" in life. All of it is valid, but this is MY YEAR.  In honor of my 30th back on January 19th, I decided to do something fun for myself on the 19th of every month this year - so far it's been a success! July is my "half-birthday" month and I thought it would be a good time to step back to appreciate all the good/positives that have happened since my birthday rather than get stuck in the slump. Being my own Valentine, throwing myself a party, seeing Hamilton... ...Grilled Cheese Weekend, Free Cone Day, a cute/confident outfit.... ...reuniting with friends, Crumbl Cookie adventures, Nostalgia Fair... ...Immersive Disney Experience, flowers from...
