where I've been

I've been hiding. I've been contemplating everything about this blog. I've been struggling to even write posts. The amount of drafts of this post I've deleted is insane.
My heart has been heavy lately. Just a lot going on in my personal life all hitting at once. There's been a lot of good, too. I got a car, which is exciting. It's a small SUV named Jane. (Yes, that is a The Raven Cycle reference 😏)
As I write this, I've taken a week off from social media.
Mental health is important, kids.
Anyway... I've just been working and trying to survive being an adult.
Faith is going through United We Fall one more time before I format. It's getting very close, frens.
I'm not really sure what to write for the rest of this post. I don't really know if I can guarantee much more in terms of blogging. I get steam to do it, and then I lose steam just as fast. No one really blogs anymore. A lot of the OG bloggers we all looked up to have either stopped blogging or they've moved to YouTube. And hey, I'm happy for them because GO QUEENS. But I miss the time when blogging was a big thing.
I'm not someone who feels comfortable in front of a camera, so YouTube isn't really an option for me right now. (Although many have requested for Faith and I to start a YouTube channel together. 😅 Definitely not ruling that out or anything but not any time soon I don't think.)
so... yeah. that's basically it. I'm not making any promises to be around here. But who knows, maybe I'll find myself and figure it out.
Thank you to everyone who has followed me and supported me on this journey. You've been amazing. A lot has happened in these past four years, two of those years being on this blog. I've made friends. I've lost some along the way. I've had meaningful conversations. And this blog has meant a lot to me.
If you want to keep up with me, you can follow me on Instagram, Twitter, I also have a Facebook page. You can also follow me on Goodreads and Pinterest. All my links are on this blog at the top and in the sidebar.
This is goodbye for now.
Excelsior! Onward and Upward
Stay Amazing, Frens.
