NEW DIRECTIONS

       After taking a mini hiatus from the blog world, it dawned on me that I was approaching this blog all wrong. My original premise was to find something I'm happy about everyday and blog about that. The key word here is "find". In order to find something, you have to stop and look for it right? That was the problem. If I originally started this blog in order to maintain happiness and to find those moments in daily life, being content and drifting along isn't the way to go. I found myself, sitting there, reflecting on my day and forcing myself to spit out an entry. So, what do you always do when things don't end up going as planned? You make changes and roll with it! I'm not gonna force myself to spew out entry after entry, because let's face it, there's not always enough time in the day. Plus, I should be out making an effort to do what I love. If being an International Development Studies graduate has taught me anything, it's taught me that when you're not content with the world around you to get out there and do something about it. So if I'm discontent with the working life, why not take more action to do things I love? I was originally on this mini-vacation with my blog because I was too busy assembling my very own clock, painting an ode to my time in Spain, and catching up with old friends. Just as I should be doing, I was going back to things I once had passion for and enjoyed. So, from here on out, I'll blog when I'm inspired to as I take active steps in my life! Whether I'm gay over bursts of creativity, delicious food, or family & friends, this blog is all about everything that makes me happy!
