When was the last time I thought, oh I should be posting something? I’m not even fully sure what brought me here today.
It feels like a distant memory that I was a teenager entering a realm that felt almost like an escape and decided to start dabbling in the world wide web and had a new place to rant away from prying eyes of people I knew…
Then I started reaching out to people through a common interest; web design, making fan like things in the form of graphics whilst playing with photoshop and acted as a outlet to think of other things other than school.
High school graduation came, and slowly the blog become more important as a place to record things I want to remember, be it good or ugly (mainly good since I preferred to recall those).
University led to a slew of changes, events, trying to figure out my way to life. The introduction of Livejournal where I only share very personal ones with people I knew and another place to fangirl with text occasionally and a place to do memes primarily… In that time I somehow managed to balance that, with my current blog (where the focus was on happier times with more web design related things), and my graphic site that was semi breathing.
Then the initial shock of finishing my undergrad resulted into new adventures, and still trying to figure out what to do with life. I’ve basically left with these three sites, where some posts would be crossed over depending on topic and some details were included/left off depending on the audience.
It’s been about 3 years now since graduation, scary thought, I assure you. How would I summarize what’s happened in the last 5 months? More or less a blur with particular incidences that I couldn’t even bring myself to post even on LJ. Why? A) the worklife can be a dull one and b) Other social media outlets I’ve started using, namely Twitter.
So what’s been stopping me from posting here? A lack of interest? time? neither really. It’s just a matter of priorities changing. I almost felt like my blog started looking like a recollection of adventures in picture form. I do think I need to refocus on what I want to do with here. I want to find back a raison d’etre for this blog. I don’t want to remove all the memories I have here. If anything, I want to maybe look into renaming. I’m sure half my blogroll died, and I’m sure most think I’ve abandoned here, in which I apologize. I feel like a terrible friend to a lot of you. It doesn’t help that I’ve given up on MSN, which was a main way I’ve gotten in contact with many of you. I still use Gchat, but doesn’t seem like as popular.
I wonder if I’m the only one that felt like this… I’m hoping come the summer, maybe by August, I would have been able to do so, as I’m in the midst of finding a new place to live. Crossing my fingers for positive revamp here. In the meantime, I hope everyone is doing well and thank you for keeping up with all these years. I’m sure next post will be less wordy and more interesting <3
