Goodness, the last time I wrote a blog post for anything was in high school when I had less on my plate, I had suddenly become a freelance journalist (and actually didn’t completely suck at it), I may or may not have launched my Youtube channel at around that time, and thought maintaining a blog was the next step for pre-adultescent me.
But boy, was I wrong.
I think I ended up shutting down that blog a few months after I launched it. But here I am back at it again, on the same blogging site where it all started. Oddly enough, everything about me has changed (as the art of growing pains entails).
I am now a full fluorescent adultescent about to complete my final year in college for an advanced diploma in public relations (whether or not I have the mental stability to take on a bachelor’s degree is a stay tuned kinda thing). I’ve experienced more, I’ve matured more, I’ve frequently visited mental and emotional rock bottom (I’m practically a regular), I’ve grown a lot, I’ve learned a lot, and my 20th trip around the sun comes up in July.
Yikes.
Now ironically enough, this blog exists because of an assignment I’m meant to complete for my social media class. Originally I thought about turning this into a post about mental health, because I’ve been mentally worn down as of late, was feeling quite alone and deep into my thoughts today, and thought taking advantage of my assignment to air out my thoughts was a good idea.
But I think the Raptors vs Nets game is too big of a distraction to get that deep (for tonight at least).
I have no idea if I’ll keep this blog up after this assignment has been submitted, but time will only tell. A deeper post about how I’ve been feeling will probably come at a later date if I do decide to take on blogging again.
And hopefully (like my about page says), you’ll choose to stay a while.
My life isn’t as interesting as you may think, but occasionally I get to do some pretty noteworthy things. Sometimes they make it onto the internet, but most times they don’t.
Oh well, #life.
Because I’ve always been bad at wrapping up blog posts (and journal entries…when that was a thing), and an assignment requirement was a call to action, I’ll ask you a simple question (and also because I’d like to know):
How are you today? Let me know in the comments below!
(I’m also gonna start inserting songs I’ve been feeling at the end of my posts because the music geek in me feels the need to be a part of this).
