I’m back? What?

Hello world of tumblr! Can it be? Is this true? Yes, yes it is! I have decided to rejoin the tumblr community. Though I know I most likely broke some tumblr sacred law when I neglected my blog for two years, I hope all will be well. So what prompted this return, you may ask? Well it is quite random to say the least. My room mate and I were have one of our many random conversations in order to avoid any homework, and she just happened to be on tumblr. She doesn’t really blog, more just loves seeing what other people blog. I understand…it’s addicting! So I thought, why not take a stroll down memory lane?! Looking through all my old posts I realized how much I loved this website! How you can totally be yourself without really having to worry about what other people think! I think everyone needs a place like that.

So clearly a lot must have changed over the past two years. I have, indeed, changed a lot but not too much at the same time. Change really isn’t the right word for what has happened to me…it’s more like I’ve grown. Growing up is pretty scary, I admit. But I feel like I have become truly happy with myself! Going through my senior year in high school and finally moving away to college has taught me A LOT! I could probably write a whole post on what I have learn and about who I really am as a person now. However, I just want to say that the most important thing I have learned is how truly blessed I am. Everyone in my life, everyone who has walked out, and everything I have been through just has shown me how beautiful life really is. Could I get any more cheesy? Probably. But I won’t! I think it is just important to reflect on all the good and sometimes even the bad. It’s weird how everything truly happens for a reason. 

They say that these are not the best of times, but they’re the only times I’ve ever known.

Life feels like it is just closing in on me. Like four walls are just getting closer and closer, and I just want to scream yet I don’t think anyone would listen or care anyway. I feel like I am constantly working hard to please others, and I am leaving myself behind in the process. Maybe it is time for some me time.

I think everyone just needs a day to sit back and reflect on themselves. You want to take care of others…but sometimes when you give so much of yourself…you have nothing left for you. So coming from someone who knows….focus on yourself…cause you’re worth it.

Friends that dougie together, stay together
