Alright, so let’s talk blogging. This isn’t actually my
first attempt, and I wish I could say that I’m creating a new blog because my
other one was so successful and inspirational. Thing is though, if I said
anything like that it would be a total lie. Yes, I’ve had a blog before but let’s
be real here – my heart just wasn’t in it. It consisted of six posts: the
standard ‘welcome’, a face-of-the-day, an autumn wish list, a Clinique freebie
review, a random post about Volkswagens (I know, don’t), and some
cross-stitching I did once. Riveting stuff, I know. When I’m the new Zoella I
might tease you all with it and label it Exclusive Content.
No but real talk now. This time around, it is going to be
different. This time around, I won’t go and buy beauty products because I think
it’ll make good reading, or pressure myself to read three books in a week just
so I’ve got something to talk about. I won’t buy a tripod to launch my YouTube
career or try on four hundred and seventeen nail varnishes just to take photos.
Nah, that’s just not my jam nowadays. What I’m going to do this time is prove something to
myself. I’m going to prove to myself that I can start and maintain an ongoing
project. I’m going to prove to myself that my life is worth writing about and make
a conscious effort to do so. I’m going to write for writing’s sake and take
thousands of pictures for the same reason.
And I’m going to be reliable. So starting maybe once a month (?) I'm going to sit and write and get
something out there. Be it a night out, new moisturiser, nice walk, feminist
rant, wish list, book review, or some random deep emotional thought that
crossed my mind on the bus to work.
Who knows, I might even discover some kind of seamless
way to end a post.
