The Adventure Diaries

Hi guys, I realized I haven’t been posting much and I’m sorry about that. To make up for it, I’m giving you all an exclusive sneak peek at my plans, and you won’t find this highly classified information anywhere else, including my Instagram or Youtube (which you should still check out).

Also I wanted to do a weekly review, which is something I’ve been thinking about doing more often, so let me know if I should!

I’ve been working hard on my Instagram (and Youtube… kind of) to post content and promote my project, also because it’s actually kind of fun?! I posted three or four reels, which is my favorite type of content, and I posted my face, which is crazy because I am a bit insecure and also terrified of being doxxed and hunted or something, but I did it.

And guess what!!

I know this is kind of common but I want to celebrate it anyways because it feels very special and big to me. So on youtube I posted a quick short about myself, just kind of as an introduction, and a person (I’m assuming girl but never assume yk) commented saying I was really pretty and told me to keep posting!!! And it was someone I don’t know, not my mom or someone from school which made it 100x sweeter because this person doesn’t know me at all, we’ll probably never meet, and they decided to encourage me! It really made my day and means a lot because I was really nervous about posting myself. If you’re that person, and you’re reading this, thank you so much!

Another awesome thing that happened this week is I got my first GoFundMe donation yesterday!!! It’s $50 which was about how much it cost to set up my site so that was really helpful. The only thing is that the person who donated is my ex… so I’m not really sure what’s happening there but I’m grateful nonetheless.

I have my first open mic tonight!!! I have two open mics on my list… one is do well and perform to the best of my ability, and the other is to bomb, meaning do terribly. Guess which one I’m doing tonight. Yep. The terrible one. Needless to say, I’m actually terrified.
Okay well I do have to clarify. I’m not going to be intentionally bad. That’s what I was going to do, but I realized it was a jerk thing to do because a lot of people take it seriously and I’m not respecting that. The reason I’m doing two open mics is because I have two different areas I want to focus on. This one is where I practice confidence and putting myself out there, and letting go of the outcome. The next open mic I do will be focused on music and I will practice a lot for that one. But yeah, that’s tonight, and I’m really scared.
What song am I going to sing? Oh it’s super indie and underground. I don’t know if you’ve heard of it. Creep? By Radiohead? Oh you do know it. I’m surprised because it’s super underground and stuff.

Okay so I promised you guys a sneak peek and this is it. I try to keep the contents of my list under wraps, but I’ll be sharing some of my plans with y’all today.
After the open mic, the next thing I’m doing is getting my hair cut. Sounds normal, right? Well the thing is I don’t know what my haircut is going to be… I’m just walking in and telling the stylist to do whatever the hell she wants. I called a LOT of salons to find a place to do this, and eventually found a salon with really nice people who were excited to do this. I’ll tell you more about this later, but that’s what’s happening Saturday. (As I’m writing this, it’s Thursday, but I’ll probably post it tomorrow so just check the times bc there’s a delay. It takes time to make content guys.)

After Saturday, I don’t have much planned for the week until the weekend, but that may change. Next weekend though I’m going to learn how to mountain bike, which I’m looking forwards to. My dad is a pro cyclist actually, but I’ve always been kind of scared to ride bikes, and especially scared to mountain bike. But I asked my dad if he would teach me, and he said yes.

As a bonus, I’m going to share a couple more things on my list, but I haven’t set a date for when I’m going to do them yet. (Planning is not my strong suit guys… I’m doing my best.)
On the not-so-distant horizon, is my first ever haunted house visit, running a marathon, and getting hypnotized. These are SECRETS guys so don’t go sharing them with the instagram or youtube crowd. These are just for my loyal subscribers who read the most inaccessible form of my content. 🙂

As always, I am so grateful for your support, and thank you for sharing this journey with me!! Open mic post coming soon.

Love y’all,

-Grace 🙂
