Now those altars in the wilderness tell the story of His faithfulness


  • Now I can give my life update! Just going to keep it simple.
    Spoiler! :
    It’s felt like a long time since I was active on here, but I have graduated from nursing school and I am also officially a licensed RN! It was hard, tiring, and stressful every day, and there were many close calls, but God has truly been good to me and He brought me this far. I was worried about finding the right job and having to move away to another city, but God provided me with a job at just the right time and at a great hospital that I was not expecting. It came to me in such a perfect way, and I don’t have to move. I am truly grateful and blessed for all the opportunities I have been given, and I’m excited to learn and grow (and make money again lol). All in all, I think the Lord has taught me a lot about His faithfulness and about trusting Him—I know I have a lot of experiences to lean on in future tough times.

    It’s good to feel a bit more normalcy again and to get back into my church community and catch up with friends. I’m also excited to get back into writing and doing SBs/role playing on YWS again! I feel like there’s a lot of potential ahead of me. :)


    Dossereana That's wonderful to hear Lael! :D

  • I wanted to give a life update but something I’m waiting on has taken longer than expected, so I’m going to hold off until everything is together :)

  • thinking about how the Twisted Wonderland anime is supposed to come out at the end of this year but I won’t be able to watch it because I don’t have Disney+ (and I don’t intend to get it or pirate)

    Small poke :^) I hope you are well and doing ok! I wanted to reach out and see if you'd be interested in an SB (run by me). I love writing with you and if you had the time/wanted to I'd reserve a spot for you!


    soundofmind If ur wanting to know what kind of story to see if it interests you, I have the SB drafted in this pad: https://pad.riseup.net/p/bread-keep ! But again, none pressure if it's not your vibe or whatever!

  • How's nursing school going? <3


    Lael I’m actually saving all of my news/life updates till next month (I’m waiting on something right now), but I can say that everything has been going well and God has answered my prayers in ways that even I could not have foreseen. :) Thanks for checking on me, and I am excited to share how things are going soon! <3

  • Merry Christmas! Jesus is the reason for the season. :) His birth was the beginning of the greatest turning point of this world, so that we may have redemption and freedom from the brokenness we knew. Enjoy this #songoftheday !

  • I can't remember if I've ever shared this (I might have), but it's that time of year again (even though I always get an urge to listen to this in the middle of the summer too)! My favorite rendition of "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" :)

  • Went looking at some old wall posts and found this. It feels so true for this year more than ever. :) I have so much to be thankful for, and I am truly excited for 2025 and new adventures coming my way. I'll give a little more life update in the next month or two and maybe see about re-immersing myself in YWS stuff and writing!

  • Anyone have recommendations of good phone cases? I’m in the market to buy a new one and I was wondering which ones were the most protective/durable and not too expensive (preferably American/Western brand).


    Wolfi I don't know about any specific brand, but I personally always go for clear cases so I can decorate it how I like! :3 Guess I don't prioritize the durability too much, but I also have never cracked or scratched a phone screen, somehow! The rubber kind with thicker corners have done the trick.

  • Me wanting to participate in NovMo to get back into writing but knowing that I can't because school + all-day clinicals is basically more than a full-time job :')

  • I'm not the kind of person who has to start listening to Christmas music right on November 1 (and I don't think I usually do either), but Phil Wickham released his Christmas album, so it sent me down the rabbit hole haha.

    I just realized your banner and I love it so much. That's one of my favorite hymns <3

    Also hi :^) it's been so long since we've chatted but I like seeing you around and you still hold a special place in my heart


    Lael Hi :) Yeah it’s a great song for sure!

    I miss you too, I am looking forward to getting out of school and getting back into writing and maybe being more active on YWS again.

    Oct 30, 2024


    soundofmind I’d love that if you could be active again :) It would be fun to chat and write more if possible!
