LAST WEEK: Sometimes short work weeks feel like the longest but thankfully last week was not one of those weeks! It was the first time in a long time I didn’t have any evening meeting and I think that might be why. I spent half the weekend with my older sister Jiyoung which was nice since we hadn’t had one-on-one time together in a long time. THIS WEEK: I am taking a couple of days in the middle of the week (had to use a little more PTO before the end of the year and to celebrate Jiyoung’s birthday). It’s going to be the weekend before I know it, which…

LAST WEEK: The three-day work week followed by a five-day weekend (I took today off as well) was a blessing. It’s always a treat to turn off your brain for a while! My only plan was to read and eat a lot and I accomplished one of those things (the latter if you couldn’t guess). THIS WEEK: Returning to work after a holiday weekend is always a struggle but since I am coming back to a four-day work week, I hope it is not too painful! It’s absolutely wild that it will be DECEMBER in just a couple of days. Where has 2021 gone?! I don’t really have any plans…

LAST WEEK: Work was pretty busy earlier in the week, and my only consolation was putting up the Christmas tree! This is my first time having a tree in my office room and I am loving it! I spend most of my waking hours in the office and it feels extra fun and special to have a tree that is decorated very “Ju.” THIS WEEK: I am very much looking forward to the short week! I am taking Monday after Thanksgiving off as well so it’s an extra long weekend for me. Alex and I’d tinderversary is November 29th so we’re staying at a cute tiny house airbnb for a…

LAST WEEK: Inspired by a book I read recently, I have been making effort to wake up earlier around 6am. I would say 7am is my happy wake up time, and I used to get up at 6am but recently, I have been sleeping in until 8am so far it’s a work in progress. On the days I woke up early last week, I worked on the blog before my day job which is why I have been cracking out more blog posts recently! THIS WEEK: I am going to Austin this weekend! I have always wanted to go to Austin, and it’s going to be my first time in…
