This week has been a crazy one, y’all! I felt like I had zero time to just take a minute and chill. Honestly, I barely had time to write this blog post in time for the weekend lol. But next week things will finally slow down and I’m excited to be able to take some time to do things that aren’t work or school related.

Click here to see my previous weekly notables, and let’s get into this week’s post!

Not gonna lie, this post is long overdue since it’s now been over a month since our trip. Regardless, I wanted to share it all with you! If you didn’t know, I’m originally from Pittsburgh, PA which is about as far west as it gets in terms of larger cities in PA.

When we visited for Christmas, we had planned a weekend trip out to the eastern part of the state, more specifically Hershey and Amish Country. We had a lot of activities jam packed into the weekend, but we had a ton of fun! Just a heads up that these are all unedited iPhone photos, so don’t expect the best lighting or photography skills lol. 

Yeah, you read that right. I used Monistat – the vaginal anti-fungal cream – to help “solve” my hair loss.

I will first and foremost say I am in no way an “expert.” I am not an OB/GYN, nor a dermatologist, or even a cosmetologist. I am just someone who heard this worked, tried it out, and it worked for me! I don’t think this was the only thing that helped me get my hair back, but I do think it was a major part in it.

A lot has been happening this week y’all! It’s almost like the new year started this week, not a few weeks ago. I am beyond exhausted with the week I had, but I know my hard work will pay off over the next few months! Due to the crazy week, my “weekly notables” is going to be more “life updates” that happened this week, since there were many of them lol. Nevertheless, I hope you enjoy it!

Yesterday I turned 22 – say what?! Yeah, I officially feel old haha. But in all seriousness, I had such a great 21st year and I am so excited to see what is in store for 22. I already have so much to look forward to including wedding planning, completing my 5th half marathon, my bestie having a baby, and so much more!

Last year I shared 21 things I learned before turning 21. Today I’m going to be sharing 22 things I learned before turning 22! Fingers crossed there aren’t too many repeats.
