To the year of me!
Welcome one and all to my personal, yet not so personal, account of my life’s experiences. In this blog I will open myself to the world on my past experiences, current everyday encounters, and my future goals. More than ever, this year has brought with it a new sense of self. I am ready to take life by the horns, my way. For a while, I have felt the ever present guilt of being a young millennial with bachelor’s degree conflicted with heading right into a graduate career or discovering who I am outside the confines of the social system that our society has set in place for us. I will question what success means and how it means something different for everyone. I will be open and honest with myself in ways I haven’t been before. This year, I embark on the great journey of my life.
I leave for my west coast trip in june for 3 weeks with some awesome humans (don’t worry, I will be bringing you guys along for the journey!), return home for a few summer weeks to enjoy the friends that I have made here in Philadelphia, then I will spend one week of vacation at the good ol’ Jersey Shore with my fam squad (yes, I say fam squad…get used to it), and finally to pack up all my belongs (ditching the old and getting in touch with the minimalist perspective) load my car up and head south to Austin, Texas to move in with a friend from high school.
I have so many plans and my hope is that writing them down in a way such as this well help me visualize them, see them as goals that I CAN and WILL achieve and organize the chaos of my mind in the process.
My personal goal for this blog is honesty and to not feel shame in the feelings I have. I am real. I have felt heartbreak, I have felt love. I have loved and been loved and all the messiness in between that has shaped me into who I am. I am ready to channel all the negative into positive energy and use that as fuel for my endeavours.
