Not every picture needs a perfect outfit, beautiful makeup, or a special occasion. Sometimes I just feel like grabbing my phone, making a silly face, and taking a selfie because... why not? 😘
Today I'm keeping things simple. My hair is down, I'm wearing one of my comfortable striped shirts, and I'm enjoying a little time to myself.
And yes, I know I'm making that funny face again. I can't help it! Haha! 😂
One thing I've learned since becoming a preschool teacher is that my days don't always go according to plan. I can spend an entire evening preparing a beautiful activity, only to discover the next morning that my little students are much more interested in telling me about their pets or asking why the moon follows them home.
Honestly, those unexpected conversations are sometimes my favorite part of teaching. 🌸
But after spending so much time being patient, organized, and responsible, I also need moments when I don't have to think about anything important.
Sometimes that means lying down for a while, scrolling through my phone, listening to my favorite songs, or taking random pictures until I find one I like.
And believe me, choosing just one selfie can be surprisingly difficult! 📸
At 23, I'm still learning how to balance everything. I want to be a good teacher, keep improving at my job, spend time with my friends, and enjoy all those little things that make life fun.
I don't always feel energetic or motivated, and that's okay. Some days I just want to wear something comfortable, leave my hair loose, and forget about my responsibilities for a couple of hours.
I also think there's something nice about pictures like this one. No fancy background, no special pose, just a regular moment at home.
Maybe when I look back at these photos a few years from now, I'll remember what it felt like to be this age, figuring things out, making mistakes, laughing at silly things, and enjoying my own company.
For now, I'm just Frida, a girl with long hair, a comfortable shirt, and a phone full of selfies that will probably never see the light of day. 😂💗
But this one made the cut!
