A Recap of 2018

Hello, love - it's been awhile!

I know, I need to stop saying that every time I make a new post. Between double-majoring, going through some life changes, and re-watching season 1 of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, I haven't had a lot of time to post on the blog. But, don't worry - I haven't left! In fact, I've been working on some things that won't come to fruition until next year.

But enough about that for right now. How about I fill you in on everything that's happened since we last talked?

(By the way, if you want a drink or a snack, grab it now and buckle up - I'm about to hit you with three months of life,)

Welcome to 2018!

You may have noticed, but over the last two months, I've taken a little break from blogging. There are tons of reasons for this - I was being swamped with finals, enjoying the holidays with my family, and readjusting to life back in NYC for my second semester of school. Mostly, though, I wasn't sure what I should write. I always felt the urge to write something, but that "something" never became clear to me. I opened up new posts, typed a few paragraphs, deleted, retyped, and deleted sections again. It seemed that I couldn't find a clear subject to write about. Having never really experienced writer's block like that before (usually when I write, I can barely type fast enough before my brain is onto the next sentence), I wasn't sure what to do; I felt lost and honestly, I kind of felt like blogging was something that wasn't going to work out for me long-term.

What Is This Blog?

The decision to start my own blog was one that, unbeknownst to me at the beginning, required lots of planning. I hadn't thought about, for instance, the process of designing a website, developing a color scheme, etc., etc (don't even get me started about coding!) But one of the problems I hadn't accounted for was the content of this blog.
