Not all cafés are built the same 💁🏻‍♀️

Been seeing a lot of my social media friends post about this cafe and I was feeling FOMO, so we decided to check out

Tbh most cafés start feeling like the same place with a different name 😤 Same aesthetic, same playlist, same energy.

And you know how sometimes a place got the vibes but the food and drinks don’t hit 😩 OR the drinks go hard but the aesthetic is mid 🥴

This place came through with BOTH 😤✨ Vibes immaculate. Coffee hard. Food even harder.

We loved everything we tried: banana cream latte, coconut cream latte, the shorty sandwich, and their soup of the day.

I’m afraid the hype was real 😭☕ Welp. Guess we’re coming back again.

Living together is beautiful…

but it can get routine fast. Between our busy schedules with work, personal goals, and hobbies, quality time starts looking a lot like chores, laundry, and zoning out on the couch together.

It can feel like we’re together but not really present.

So we made a rule: don’t just co-exist. Keep dating each other, keep showing up.

Anyway, this is your reminder to stop coexisting with your partner. Reconnect and keep getting to know each other. After all, love is more than just a feeling. It is a commitment.

Schedules dates if you have to. Put it in your calendar. No errands, no multitasking.

Stay in love 💖

Sincerely,

Rizchelle

Plot twist: my life wasn’t boring in the Blue Sky City.

I thought my life was boring because I work a 9-5. Turns out I was just burnt out and stuck in the same routine. Wake up. Work. Sleep. Repeat 🔁

I decided to make a change. I started doing little side quests outside of my 9 to 5. Trying new workouts. Going on walks. Attending events. And somehow life started to feel more interesting again ✨

The Blue Sky City did not suddenly become magical. It was always full of beauty, community, and little moments worth noticing. I just had to meet it halfway.

So if you are feeling stuck, you should do something outside of your routine. Calgary still has so much to give you🌤️

2024, you were magical and unforgettable.

Some of the highlights of my 2024:

- competed in powerlifting against some of the strongest in western Canada and ranked 5️⃣th out of 14 lifters in my weight class and category ✨

- finally graduated from university 🎓 (started university back in 2015 so this has been a long time coming)

- got engaged to the love of my life 💍 (intimate and surprise proposal with so much tears of joy + Renzo made a very cute vid of it that we could always look back on 📸 )

- went on our first international trip just the two of us ✈️ Japan 🇯🇵 and the Philippines 🇵🇭 (had so much fun exploring Japan and met our friends and family back in the Philippines)

- started working full-time 👩🏻‍💻(adult money & bills 🙈)

- moved in together 🔑🏙️ (made the decision to rent in downtown for our first year; so excited for the life we’re gonna build together)

ahhhh truly one for the books 💖 grateful for this year. To more growth, love, and success in 2025! 🎇

PS: This is just my highlight reel. Behind these happy moments were tears, self-doubt, and battles with self-sabotage but i’m working on that (hello therapy)

Happy New Year friends!

When in doubt, turn to Pinterest for inspo 🌟

Crazy to think I used to hate wearing skirts and shorts bcos I was so insecure of my legs and here I am now excited to wear them all spring/summer 🌿☀️🌷

This is your reminder to not let your insecurities stop you from living life… and from wearing cute outfits 😉

New glasses making me look like smarter than I actually am 👀🙇🏻‍♀️📖

Spent our Saturday this weekend at the beautiful Calgary Central Library to catch up on school work. Not gonna lie I haven’t been at my best game in the past months. Thought I’d be an academic weapon in my last year but I am more of an academic victim 🥲🥲

Studying at the library has been beneficial though. I needed a change in environment and Central Library was a lovely place to get some work done👩🏻‍💻👩🏻‍💻

Some things to remember:

🌟Sign up for a library card account as you will need this to connect to the wifi and of course to borrow books.

🌟It can get very busy at times so show up early if you can.

🌟If you do not want to bring a laptop, there are available desktop computers you can use.

🌟Finding an outlet for charging can be a struggle so make sure that your devices are fully charged.

🌟There are no coffee shops in the library so make sure to bring drinks or snacks if you are planning to stay long (there used to be a Luke’s Cafe there when the library first opened)

🌟 Board games (Anomia, Catan, etc.) and gaming consoles are available if you want to take a break from studying

2024 INs and OUTs 💁🏻‍♀️💁🏻‍♀️ Rizchelle’s Version

Happy New Year friends 🎉🎉

Saw this trend and thought it was a good opportunity to reflect again on what I want to do MORE and what I want to do LESS in 2024.

Of course, you can change your habits anytime you want but new year feels like a fresh restart so I think it’s a good opportunity to reflect and set intentions.

Have you thought about your ins and outs for this year?

Share with me what you have!

In my “loves-to-wear-long-skirt” era 🫶🏻

Skirt and bag are thrifted ♻️

Looking at these pictures made me realize how proud I am of myself because l no longer give in to trends nor impulsive purchases as quickly as I used to.

Some of the things I have been practicing in the last few months:

➡️ Reducing my fast fashion purchases by being intentional with my purchases

➡️ Buying secondhand when possible (yayy for thrifting)

➡️ Investing in durable and versatile pieces to mix and match

➡️ Shopping my existing closet and creating outfits from pieces I already own

“I feel fat”

I used to always catch myself saying this.

BUT fat is not a feeling. Fat is simply an adjective and it should not make you feel any less accepting of your body. I realized that when I use this phrase to explain what I feel, I was simply feeling insecure and un-accepting of my body. I was associating the word “fat” with all these other negative feelings.

Fat has been demonized for so long in our diet-culture-obsessed society, hence, anytime we feel a negative emotion, it’s so easy to use the word fat to describe it.

When you catch yourself saying “I feel fat”, ask yourself “What am I really feeling?”

🔘Do I feel bloated?
🔘Do I feel uncomfortable in my body?
🔘Do I just feel guilty for eating?
🔘Do I feel sluggish?
🔘Do I feel unlovable or undesirable?
🔘Am I feeling frustrated?
🔘Am I feeling insecure and unworthy?
🔘Am I feeling vulnerable?
🔘Am I worried about what other people think?

We should stop associating “fat” with negative feelings.
