the reason why i was on hiatus

It's not that dramatic. 

Hi, guys! I know I've been MIA on the past 5 months and I'm truly sorry for that. Blogging has been my hobby since I was in elementary and has always been a source of happiness for me. I've found new friends and have experienced new things because of this platform. But, ever since I graduated in college, things have changed. I've also changed in a lot of ways. My job as a teacher took a toll on me. I constantly have mood swings and feel irritated most of the time. It was kind of stressful, actually. And I needed a lot of time to adjust. On top of that, I was involved in a car accident last March. It wasn't really serious. I had no major injuries--just a bump on the forehead. Still, that time, I felt the need to take a break from life--including blogging.

Blogging still gives me joy but on the last 5 months that I was gone, I just couldn't find the motivation to post. I kept on trying to write and write but it just felt unnatural and for me it felt like I was pushing myself too much. It's like I felt lost and somehow, I didn't want to talk about that. I wanted to talk about happier things and positive stuff to show that I'm doing fine and this adult life isn't tearing me apart but I just couldn't. I had nothing to say.

And so, I decided to stop for a while. Take a break. Take it slow. Revive yourself.

I told you it wasn't that dramatic. Just a small town girl feeling lost in this thing called life. But hey, I'm doing better now. The reason why I posted this blog is to finally, and genuinely say that I'm fine. I missed blogging. I missed talking to myself (my mind) while I'm typing this. Haha. I feel like I've adjusted just fine. Yes, my job's still stressful but I can deal with it now. Did I mention that I miss blogging? Coz I really do. And can I just tell you that I'm disappointed with my photos? Lol. My camera is outdated, I feel like it's slowly giving up on me now. I badly want to replace it real soon but ain't got the cash to do so. Also, I just don't have enough time to shoot yet but I'll be back full time soon. I promise.

How have you been lately?

  1. That's why I haven't seen anything new from you! Well, take your time. After all, your welfare is more important. You can't function well if you are not well. Hope you'll be ok!
