- be a way to meet new friends- I've met so many great people through this, and it honestly didn't occur to me that this would happen. That I would get to know you all, and consider you friends. Ones that I talk about TV with, or new books. Ones that I can meet up with for a drink, or hope to visit one day. And I love it.
- be something to help me discover more of me- Every time I start writing a new post, especially a more confessional one, it helps me learn more about myself. Discover what I truly enjoy doing, what I want to do, find my voice- one I didn't even think I had. I've grown to really enjoy writing over these past few months. It was never something I did before, unless I had to.
- be a relaxing activity ( I kind of find it soothing- a way to take off some stress of my life)- I find reading other blogs, as well as just writing and working on my own relaxing sometimes. A way to take my mind off of other things, put effort into something else and just be me.
- be SO MUCH FUN- yes it's relaxing, and sometimes stressful, and it usually takes up more of my day than I wanted it to, and partly because it is actually a lot of fun. I like catching up with new posts, reading what everyone did over the weekend. When I actually do it, I have fun chatting on twitter, responding to new tweets. I like taking pictures, thinking of new activities to do with my friends- I really enjoy writing. And I have fun sharing things too. It's nice to have a place to vent, grieve, shine.
- start my bucket list.- blogging has introduced me to so many cool places, countries, towns, shops. It's shown me a fun way to wear my hair, the best fall boots, and interesting new music. With blogging I've started a bucket list, places I want to travel to, food I should make/try, given me new stores to play at and activities to do with family and friends. And list is always growing!
It's weird to look back and think about what you thought blogging would be versus what it has become. I've enjoyed the ride so far and hope to keep on it for quite sometime...
