Welcome to the LK Lifestyle.


What exactly is an LK Lifestyle? For starters, its a journey fully equipped with the chaos and drama of being a twenty-two-year old girl. The search for life’s greater meanings. The pursuit towards the ultimate gate of success, happiness, and all around good living. The seeking out of inspiration. The hunt for finding your passions and exceeding your own expectations. Optimization of self. A guide for the lonely, the bored, and the lacking. We are all here to help each other, learn from each other and grow as a society towards something better. This blog will discuss topics that may be too controversial or taboo for some, but to be scandalous is to be exciting, and we could all use a little more excitement.

I grew up in a place where an abundance of boredom and money conquered people’s perceptions of normal. Every kid I grew up with had a therapist by 18. Adderall, or the near chemical equivalent to speed became the most popularly prescribed drug of my peers, and being productive without it was left to the sole few that still had the gift of self-motivated concentration. To read more about the dangers of adderall visit. Anxiety and panic attacks, while once were subject to ridicule and highly unmentioned, became a commonality experienced so often that 4.0 honor students became highly-addictive pill poppers. The 60’s and 70’s may be associated with drugs, peace and love, and everything merry and colorful, but the world we live in today is much different, much scarier, and way less bright. My plan is to help people find the colors the world has seemed to have lost or at the least offer a fresh perspective and simple rules to live by.


My Random BUT RELEVANT thoughts for today:
1. Surround yourself with good people. Studies show a person’s mood is highly affected by the atmosphere they submerge themselves in. Now I am a realist. I can be negative if the situation calls for a foreseeable bad outcome. However, there are those people who should be immediately flagged as “downers.” These “downers” should be avoided at all costs. Being best friends with someone who never wants to leave the house, or enjoys sulking in their own misery and bringing the world down with them must be AVOIDED. You can’t change others. Don’t try too hard, but you can always change yourself.
2. Green tea. Cancer is in everything. Try to have at least a cup of green tea a day and you will not only feel and look better, you will help to prevent life threatening sicknesses. Don’t hesitate to read up about the endless green tea benefits i.e. http://chinesefood.about.com/library/weekly/aa011400a.htm.
3. It could always be worse. No matter how terrible-awful-no good-very bad of a day you’re having, there always is someone suffering more than you. There is always a single mom, working three jobs, who’s husband passed away last year and can’t afford to feed her 3 children and has no living family to support her. Remember that.
