    Memorial Day Weekend Down The Shore

    Dear Diary,

    Just got back from down the shore after four and a half slow, sunny days. It was Memorial Day Weekend and felt like the official start of summer! I stayed at the beach house with my cousins and totally unplugged.. no social media, no updates, just the ocean breeze and way too many laughs.

    We got there Friday evening and did a grocery run first thing, which always feels kind of cozy—like setting up a little life for the weekend. The house smelled like old wood and sunscreen, and after unpacking and eating chips on the couch, we all knocked out early with the windows open and the fan humming.

    Saturday morning, we walked into town and wandered through the surf shops and boutiques. I got myself the big SunBum monkey, Sonny (I had to—he’s adorable!), and grabbed some new body products that smell like coconut and salt. At a little antique spot, I found little white linen J.Crew shorts and a red and white striped J.Crew boatneck top that made me feel like I should be in love with a sailor! I saw a rack of oversized Ralph Lauren polos and didn’t grab them, and now I can’t stop thinking about how cute they’d look styled oversized on a boat somewhere! Ugh. Next time...

    Sunday we hung around the house and binge-watched Jersey Shore for hours—nothing gets you in the summer mood more, honestly. After lunch (burgers, of course), we walked down to the beach. The red flags were up so we couldn’t go in, but we dug big holes, made sandcastles, and splashed around in the shallows. The water looked so blue and the sunset that night was stunning—shades of pink, peach, and orange melting together like a painting. We slept like babies.

    Monday had the best weather, It was also Memorial Day! I laid out on the porch with my new tanning oil that smells like oranges and makes you shimmer a little in the sun. We played guitar, giggled, and were just silly all afternoon. Later, I made Hawaiian roll sliders I saw on TikTok (ham + cheese with that buttery glaze) and everyone loved them! Around midnight we decided we were starving again, so we piled in the car and went to 7/11. It was packed with teens and college kids running around— it honestly felt like a summer coming-of-age movie!! Chaotic, but kind of amazing...

    On Tuesday, we cleaned the house, finished the last of the food and snacks, and packed up. I didn’t want to leave. I love that little town..The soft-colored houses, the salty air, walking barefoot everywhere, getting BLTs and ice cream in the afternoons.. I already miss it. Can’t wait to go back when June really starts to heat up!!!

    MDW at the shore is always a little wild, a little dreamy, and exactly what I needed. :)

    The Girls Are Back In Town

    Dear Diary,

    Went thrifting with my girls today. School ended on the 7th, so now we finally have time to just chill. No more rushing around, just open days and slow moments. :)

    I didn’t find a ton at the thrift store, but the things I did pick up were very cute! Wandering around in the rain and being silly with my favorite people—it just felt good. :)

    After thrifting, we stopped at McDonald’s (I got a fish o fillet.. DONT JUDGE!!!) lolz and then drove out to this quiet park near one of my friends houses. We dropped the seats in another friends van, spread out some old sheets, and made the coziest little hangout spot. Music playing low, rain tapping the roof… everything felt so soft and calm, like a scene from a movie!

    We talked and laughed for hours! It felt like the world slowed down just for us. I didn’t want it to end, but curfew came quicker than we hoped. I love these girls so much. After a bunch of not-great friendships, it’s kind of amazing to feel this safe and seen! I get to just be myself—really, fully me. No shrinking, no second-guessing. Just joy, just ease. Summer’s only just started, and I already know I’ll remember nights like this for a long time! ok well thats all for now,

    TTYL diary :3

    Guitars & Glitter

    Dear Diary,

    My website is still under construction, but I didn’t want that to stop me from writing a little update ♡

    A few days ago, I went to a show at my college to support my friends! They were amazing! the theme was 80s and 90s music, and they performed medleys from all kinds of artists and bands from that era. It honestly sounded just like the studio versions! I’m so, so proud of them!! (if ur said friends, hiii! u did so well :D)

    Earlier that day, I went shopping and ended up getting a bunch of cute skirts and summery clothes~ I even treated myself to a pink Juicy bag!! So much for saving money this week… oopsie hehe..

    Anywayyyyz! Tonight I went to another show, and a bunch of my friends and their friends were playing in different bands. I was feeling really tired and kinda out of it because of my awful sleep schedule and the hot weather (it was like 80°!) so I didn’t dance as much as I usually do. Then it started raining, so my friend and I went outside and played in it for a bit while listening to the music from outside. It felt really peaceful

    A random guy came up to talk to us — he was a little weird but totally harmless lol. The lightning did scare me a bit though! Later I got to talk to a girl I really look up to who also plays guitar… she’s sooo cool and inspiring!! i hope we become better friends in the future ♡

    Overall, it was a lovely day! Took a gr8 shower after and my pjs r nice and clean!! 10/10 day fs! ^w^ I’m hoping to finish my index layout in the next few days, but I wanted to post this before I forget everything (my memory is like... nonexistent lately XD)

    Okay, that’s all for now, ttyl diary!! xoxo
