If I write what I feel, it’s to reduce the fever of feeling.

KIMMY’S DIGITAL DIARY
July is here, and it’s like the summer just gave us a big, warm hug! The days are longer, the sunsets are more stunning, and every evening feels like a celebration of light and colour.
The roses and daisies are showing off their best selves, filling the air with sweet scents, and the sun is treating us to those golden-hour vibes that make everything look like a dream. 💭
June was a whirlwind of beach trips, ice cream dates, and unforgettable moments. New jobs, new opportunities, and new money are rolling in, which is super exciting! But if i'm being 100% honest —it also had its share of meltdowns, frantic deadlines, and new routines. I've learned that now more than ever, i need to get my sh*t together and stay on track with my goals.
Psalm 121:7-8
The Lord will keep you from all harm— he will watch over your life; the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.
what’s in?
summer picnics: Grabbing the besties and a basket full of goodies for some sunshine and laughter in the sun ☀️
fresh fruit smoothies: Blending up nature’s candy for a refreshing and healthy treat!!! my current fave is a mango, strawberry, pineapple and orange juice blend 🍓🥭🍍
spontaneous road trips: Hitting the road with no plans, just the open road and endless possibilities., i looooove driving by the water and exploring the cities nearby. i always find a cute antique shop or new food truck.
what’s out?
burnout: Pushing yourself to the limit and forgetting to relax. you need to promise yourself that you'll schedule at least 20 minutes for self care
overthinking: Letting worries steal the joy from your sunny days. if you stress about it before it happens you're putting yourself through it twice. and that doesn't make sense!
clutter: Holding onto things (and thoughts) that no longer serve you.
FOMO: Stressing about what everyone else is doing instead of enjoying your own journey.
until next time,
mwah!
XOXO
WHY AREN'T YOU DATING YOURSELF TOO?
As I sat sipping my morning coffee, I couldn't help but wonder: why do we often wait for someone else to take us on a romantic date when the perfect partner has been there all along—ourselves?
We get so caught up in chasing love from others we often forget that sometimes that you can give yourself the love you need too.
There’s something soooo empowering about falling in love with your own presence. I mean why wouldn't I want to hangout with myself? I'm amazing, fun and smell good too.
When you take yourself out, you're not just spending time alone— you're setting the standard for yourself everytime you get dressed up and go to that fancy restaurant, everytime you grab your tote bag and favourite runners and go exploring in your city, or even monthly spa visits to pamper yourself. make your solo dates pop so you don't settle for less when it comes to romantic partners and platonic friendships
Physical Solo Date Ideas
Sunset Beach Walk: Slip into your cutest sundress and wander along the beach as the sun sets. You could even pack yourself some of your fave sparkling drinks and some fruits! and everybody always feels better after they spend some time by the water.
Picnic in the Park: Pack a basket with your favorite snacks, a cozy blanket, and a good book. Find a shady spot under a tree 🍓📖
Yoga in the Garden: Roll out your mat in your backyard or a nearby garden. Breathe in the fresh air and stretch your body 🧘♀️🌸
Gallery Hopping: Spend an afternoon exploring local art galleries. Take your time admiring each piece and journal about it after 🖼️
Stargazing Night: On a clear night, lay out a blanket in your backyard or a quiet park and look up at the stars ✨
Food Solo Date Ideas
Café Hopping: Spend a day exploring cafés in your city and act like the main character in a sitcom or romcom. My fave thing about cafe's is people watching and making up storylines about people. ☕️
Gourmet Dinner for One: Dress up and take yourself to that fancy restaurant you’ve been eyeing. Put on that dress you've been "saving for a special occasion" and order yourself the whole bottle! 🍷
Baking Adventure: Try out a new baking recipe and create some new sweet treats, whatever you have leftover you can share with your girls 🥮🍪🍰
Farmers’ Market Feast: Visit a local farmers’ market and pick out fresh, seasonal ingredients. Then, head home and cook a delicious, wholesome meal just for you.
Ice Cream Parlor Indulgence: Treat yourself to a visit to an ice cream parlor.
Remember, darling, you're the star of your own show. Every moment spent with yourself is a chance to fall head over heels for the fabulous person you are. So, slip into that cute outfit, step out with all the confidence of a city girl in stilettos, and let the world bask in your glow.
After all, the greatest romance you'll ever have is the one you create within yourself.
