Becoming a lifestyle blogger? ft. Rambling... A Lot. (Part 2)

Hello.

I know I should have updated my blog at least once a month last year, but I'm very sorry for not being able to keep my promise. I wanted to update, but I just didn't have the energy to do so. I've recorded everything on my bullet journal, but I'm not sure whether I will post them here though. Again, I'm very sorry.

Talk about bullet journaling, that too now has changed into digital journaling! I bought an iPad Air 4th Generation last December and I've been journaling (...I think) on the iPad. But sadly, I thought I would do better if I use a digital journal but instead, it made me become even lazier than I intended to ;-; Maybe one of the reasons is because I use a pre-made template (though I made it myself from scratch) so I don't spend a lot of time editing and engaging with the journal. Heck, it looks even emptier than my previous bullet journal!

So, for the next semester, I have decided to go back to bullet journaling again, but this time, I'll try to separate some sections of the journal into two (some in bujo and the others on iPad) so that I won't have to feel sorry towards my empty wallet :')

I really want to show you guys some snippets of my journal but IT'S SO EMPTY I CAN'T—

I want to write. Okay, that's the rant.

I have this one short story that I've been wanting to finish since 2017 and up until now, I have read my draft like a million times, but I can't seem to write anything on it. It's not like I have lost my interest in writing, it's just that writing takes a lot of energy and my brain just couldn't handle it. And I thought that it was because of the writer's block, but actually the change of my well-being that had affected my will to write. Still, I really want to finish it because the storyline is so good, but idk... We'll see.

Regarding this blog, I've been thinking about which direction should I go with for some time now, since I still haven't find the right niche to use as the main theme. I've thought of merging into a lifestyle blog but I don't have the confidence to do so, as I don't really have that many ideas to write, still. And for me, the idea of having a blog is that I can write my own feelings and thoughts freely, with a sprinkle of life updates here and there, so I'm actually quite happy with my blog being very personalised.

But if I were to make a change, maybe after this, I will not be so discreet anymore. If I want to write about my mental health, I will. If I were to post rants instead of informative updates, I will. I'll try to be as open as possible (though I'm not quite sure how it will turn out). So before that time comes, this blog will not have a constant update for the time being.

Okay so, let's move on to the fun part!

I'm currently obsessing over:

SENCHA/CHACENZO!


I have finished watching Vincenzo and yes, they're absolutely this year's favourite drama yet (with Mr Queen following closely behind)! The storyline itself is a gem, the cinematography is on point and the relationship between the characters are very pleasing to watch. And we're also been blessed with these two insane visuals as well as the sparks between them. Just look at them, they're so beautiful!

... And I think that's it for now hahah.

Goodbye!

  1. I hope you get out of your writer block mode real soon so you can finish what you've been meaning to do! But tbh I'm in the same place as you, i'm on my artist block and it goes on for months until now :(

    And hey, maybe you don't have to decide yet the direction or purpose of your blog. Do try and error on many things and you might find one that suits your taste <3

    1. It's so frustrating how you want to write, but you can't do so because your brain isn't functioning that well ;-; But we'll get through this, insya Allah!

      I will, thank you so much for the insight! <3
