Happy belated New Year everyone! Let me start off this post by expressing my apologies for my lack of posts and absence from social media. Not only have I been incredibly busy with my advanced classes and extracurricular activities, but I had a few unexpected curve balls thrown my way in recent months. Now that some of that excitement is dying down I feel I owe all of you an explanation, witch unfortunately isn't a short one because it is due to a large number of circumstances. One reason for my extended vacation from blogging is because I feel too stuck in the format of my blog. I started this blog back in 2014 with no idea of who I was as a person. Everything I posted about was extremely materialistic and impersonal, witch is not what I want for my platform. I want a space where I can talk about real things, explore other passions, and share my writings and feelings. Recently I feel that this blog is still stuck in that original plan I had, and I want to break free from that mold and post content that I am passionate about, not all the fake superficial things I found myself writing posts about over an over again. Not that all my old posts were meaningless, I stand behind all of my previous work, I would just like to use my platform for more important things, and use it as a space to share who I really am, not the person I am trying to act like. I don't know if that makes any sense, but the thought of that has kept me preoccupied for quite some time. I'm not sure what is going to happen with this blog moving forward. I've considered restarting with a completely new blog, but I don't want to let this one go. One thing is for sure, that from now on anything I am putting out online will be genuine and things I feel good and passionate about. Thanks to all of you who have been on this blogging journey with me, this blog has helped me grow up in ways I cannot even express. Hopefully we can continue this crazy adventure together too.
