@hozier has been my favorite artist for as long as I can remember, his songs with me through good and bad. So when I saw he was going to be having a concert near me, I knew I had to go. I was thinking about who to invite, when I realized since I had moved out, me and my mom haven’t done a whole lot, just the two of us. So i shot her a text asking if she wanted to go. She said yes whole heartedly, and before i knew it she was paying for tickets. It ended up being one of the best, most memorable nights of my life, as we were 6 rows away from the stage. Being able to not only experience that in person but share that experience with someone I loved made the night unforgettable. (Don’t worry I’ll post videos soon) by @blanke.30

Jus a little late (sorry Disa 🙃)
Southwestern Regionals! I wasn’t expecting to place but ended up getting 2nd! It was definitely a fun experience. Overall went well but bench had a bit more fatigue than I would have liked.

Photos through a whole year with my favorite person❤️. I can hardly believe it
As a photographer my role has been to find the beauty in things. Whether big or small, I find pride in being able to find beauty. With you I found that beauty in all forms from you easier than I ever have before. The kindness in your eyes and words, the gentleness of your touch, how you make me feel every moment I am with you is worth more than any bumbling string of words I could put together here if you gave me a thousand years. Thank you for loving me, and I can’t wait to continue this weird little life with you ❤️
There is at least one photo from every month we’ve been together❤️ by @blanke.30

Over 600 has finally been achieved. After weeks of doing 600 on every bar imaginable, RPE 8s came around. Feels absolutely amazing, even if I didn’t chalk my mid to upper thigh

Fatigue is a hell of a drug 🥴
They cant all be winners- squat (220 kg) and bench (167.5 kg) felt AMAZING, but dead’s(247.5 kg) felt much less so. Just fatigued out of my damn mind
