https://loafersandlattes.wordpress.com/2014/12
Monthly Archives: December 2014. Uhhh ok so tomorrow’s Christmas Eve. Where did the time go? I swear it was January and I was heading back to school and now I’m ending the year with a full time job. How crazy is that? Dec 23 is a very special time for my family. It’s my parent’s anniversary and if my amazing, kick ass dad were alive, they’d be celebrating their 25th anniversary. So here’s to Mom and Dad celebrating their would-be silver year! Lately my personal style has been a little rut. This stunning ...

Keep it Real | Dear nams
https://namskies.wordpress.com/2013/11/18/keep-it-real
Letters to my younger-self. Humble yourself from time to time. The world does not revolve around you. It will never revolve around you. Keep that in mind. Give yourself a reality check every so often, because you truly are an insignificant spec in the grand scheme of things. The luxuries that we complain about are laughable, embarassing even. But sometimes, our bubbles are often so congested that it’s difficult to recognize that there is life outside of oursel. I remember sailing throughout Ha Long Bay.

Broaden your Skills | Dear nams
https://namskies.wordpress.com/2013/12/02/broaden-your-skills
Letters to my younger-self. Take the time to expand your skill set. This doesn’t necessarily mean that you need to be an analytical genius, or the worlds greatest multitasker – But you’ll be one step closer to being a well-rounded person. Dabble in things here and there – you may not not necessarily excel in everything that you expose yourself to, but doing so will allow you to discover what you actually like, and what you really can’t stand. I thought the idea of Geocaching. December 2, 2013. You are co...

Be Rational | Dear nams
https://namskies.wordpress.com/2013/12/01/be-rational
Letters to my younger-self. Quit acting on bursts of emotions – whether you’re angry, jealous or full of resentment. It will only lead to more chaos. Sleep it off, and assess the situation with a fresh pair of eyes. Things will always make more sense after you sleep it off. Trust me on this one…. December 1, 2013. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Top 5 No-No’s at a Company Party | Dear nams
https://namskies.wordpress.com/2013/11/27/top-5-no-nos-at-a-company-party
Letters to my younger-self. Top 5 No-No’s at a Company Party. Though it may seem like a good idea at the time, try not to be the life of the party at every party. Especially if it is a Company Holiday Party. 1 Don’t take shots with your supervisor – even if it is her birthday. 2 Don’t own the dance floor – Your co-workers don’t know that you’re a dance-machine, nor can they handle your moves. 4 Do not get HR to take 10 photos of you and your date – especially if he works for the same company…. You are co...

Be Selective | Dear nams
https://namskies.wordpress.com/2013/12/02/be-selective
Letters to my younger-self. With the number of people that walk in and out of your life without rhyme or reason, it is difficult to build long lasting relationships. Finding people you naturally gel with is tough, but that doesn’t mean they don’t exist. I was not at all selective with the people I allowed into my life, and that’s a dangerous thing because:. What feels good momentarily, can lead to destructive behaviour down the road. December 2, 2013. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here.

Perception is Everything | Dear nams
https://namskies.wordpress.com/2013/12/03/perception-is-everything
Letters to my younger-self. The glass should always be half full. Know that nothing is nearly as bad as it could be. If you find yourself unhappy with your situation – whether you hate your job, your non-existent boyfriend, or if life has just bogged you down – remember that you are the only one that can change your reality. No one can help you but yourself. And, after all is said and done,. Your perception is your reality. When all else fails, remember:. If the problem cannot be solved, then,. Aviation&...

Letters to my younger-self. November 13, 2013. Laugh at least five minutes a day. Laugh to yourself. Laugh with others. Laugh even when the joke isn’t all that funny. Laugh until it becomes natural. Laugh it off, and never take yourself too seriously. But what’s the point? It’s so much easier to be happy. It’s so much easier to let things roll off your back and laugh about them – better for your health, too! Who wouldn’t want to absorb all the benefits of laughter! Have I sold you on this yet? Just remem...

Feel your Fears; do ’em Anyways | Dear nams
https://namskies.wordpress.com/2013/12/02/feel-your-fears-do-em-anyways
Letters to my younger-self. Feel your Fears; do ’em Anyways. Never allow your fears to dictate you. Feet planted firmly on the ground, my heart racing in the worst of ways. Palms drenched with cold sweats and whining at seven hundred words per minute. This is nothing new for me, though. It’s actually a common occurrence. But, as I grew older, I rec. Within the past few years, I have done things that I never would have imagined myself doing as a kid. I’ve climbed all 1776 stairs up the CN Tower. I’m...

Know your Worth | Dear nams
https://namskies.wordpress.com/2013/11/20/know-your-worth
Letters to my younger-self. Never allow someone to negate your intrinsic value. I’ll be the first to admit that I have always been one to allow people to walk all over me. Whether they were coworkers, or boyfriends (sometimes they were both) or even Joe Smith, the Customer Service representative at Bell, I’ve struggled with standing up for myself. Have enough self respect to recognize when you are being disrespected. Never allow someone to invalidate your feelings simply because they don’t alig...You are...
