Yesterday, I got my first writing job. One week ago, I registered for my last semester of university. This time last year I was confident in what I wanted to do, now I am suffering the fatal battle of adulthood indecision regarding my future. Today I am writing my first blog post. Right here, for anyone, or no one to read.
It's hard not to get caught up in reflecting on the passage of time. It is lonely yet connective, scary yet inspiring. Conceptualizing the changes of the self while evolving your personal, academic, and professional life is something I am finding close to impossible.
I don’t know what I want, I have no clarity within this dream.
I am daunted by my own desire to start this platform while simultaneously being proud of finally doing it.
I don’t know what this will turn into, if anything, but I know I am doing it. I started this blog to do what I love – write, think, learn, observe. This is a place of complete discombobulated thought processes brought together into one archive of my own creation.
This post, meaningless as it may seem, is the introductory step into the next phase of my life. So cheers to you, self, you did it. You wrote something down, you hit post. This is call for celebration…
Alright I won’t get too excited just yet, but a pat on the back is due.
Moving forward there will be more sense to each piece, hopefully. Art, music, literature, movies, family, friendship, nature, and whatever the heck else I come up with will be embedded within this little library. Comma splices, run on sentences, improper grammar and whatever the heck else I come up with will also be embedded within this little library. (reader be warned)
More concise topics and purpose in subject matter will surely provide an insight into my own meandering mind, and hopefully reach a certain type of person who may desire a connection through these words. But this post is a commemorative introduction to starting that blog! More to come …
