First entry: An attempt out of reality

If you’re reading this - Hi there, it’s nice to e-meet you! A greeting I've been using regularly for the past three months.

This past year has been insanity — Graduation, getting my first official job, a BOYFRIEND (whom I love very much). A lot of times, I find myself wishing that time would slow down but don’t we all. Heh.

Creating this little safe space because, truthfully, I've always had a penchant for creativity, and I've come to the realization that I needed an outlet and I needed one badly. So here it is – a small creative haven where I can connect with individuals who are navigating or have navigated through the same stages of life as I am currently. Over here, I’d be posting weekly entries. It’s my attempt to bring some of the good blog days back (thank you if you got it - I meant the good old days back but with blog… I always find the need to explain my puns 👀 haha).

Truthfully – there are times when putting my thoughts into words (or in this case, typing them out) feels way easier than trying to express them verbally. Does anyone else feel this way? Times I do try, I just word-vomit.

Anyway, back to topic – ever since I entered the workforce, I've been grappling with a cascade of emotions, some of which I've never even had to entertain before. The term "adulting" used to sound alien to me, but its reality is sinking in more and more each day. I am only just starting out in my career but I find myself swamped with concerns. Questions like, "Am I on the right path?" and "Is fulfilment more important than financial stability?" weigh heavily on my mind. Do I keep moving forward, or should I pivot into a field I'm genuinely passionate about? Then there are the more practical worries – do I have enough savings to buy a house? How do I navigate the intricacies of investing? The list goes on. AH!

My mind is in perpetual motion. I don’t know where to start.

So, here's to fostering encouragement, learning, and journeying together. One thing I'm certain of – we weren’t meant to do life alone. So, once again – hi, it's nice to e-meet you. 🙂

Ps. If you've navigated through this season of life, I want to learn from your experiences. Please share your insights with me. And if you're currently in the midst of it, know that I'm right there with you. Let's connect and exchange our stories. I look forward to hearing from you all.
