Hello to whoever is reading this, and I hope you had some great time over past few weeks with Christmas and New Year eves and all that fun stuff.
If you've are one of the readers of this blog, then you've been probably wondering where I was whole month and what I was up to. It's crazy to think it's been a month since I last updated my site, but hey, it is what it is.
I could lie to pretend like I am all nice and peachy and tell you, that I've been too busy with upcoming holidays and life and all to continue with regular blog posts. But apart from being nice, I also want to be honest to my readers.
The reason I was away is because somewhere along the lines, I lost it. That hyper love feeling toward this blog. Suddenly everything I had written and done here before, looked silly to me. I started question myself on what I was doing, and eventually I fell into endless doubts. To me it seemed like my blog looked just stupid, that it wasn't good enough, and everything here irritated me. I wanted to change it, from the name and layout to rewriting or deleting all posts and starting fresh. But every time I came to do the actual changes, my fingers just wouldn't click the 'save' button.
I was stuck.
And the lowest part of it, is that it's not the blog I really had doubts for. I doubted myself. I disliked myself and....yes, I allowed myself to feel miserable. I wrapped myself in all the blankets and burried myself in my bed-fort for days. I didn't cry, nor feel depressed, but it was the time when I thought everything I would try to do - would end up as a failure.
Tables turned on December 24. I was finally done with all exams, boring paperwork and house cleaning, so my mom dragged me out for "last minute christmas shopping". She convinced well, hands down, she said it was finally snowing and we had to get me a new pair of winter boots and also tons of food for upcoming holiday dinner.
Maybe it was the magic of Christmas time, or people looking more happy than ever, or the new pair of shoes (silly, I know), but I felt alive again. It's not like it cured me in one day, but I felt hopeful again, and the feeling grew within me. I gave myself time to relax, and get my inspiration back, until I felt like it was the time to return. And I also realized how much I really missed blogging.
And now I need just a little bit of help. Its nothing much, just few words to type and submit as a comment below this post, but it will mean the world to me. What I ask for is really simple: I want to know if there is anything I should really change in this blog to make it more reader friendly and if I should keep it a "funny mess" or stick to certain topics, like beauty and fashion, or book and films reviews, just let me know?
P.S. I feel like 2015 is our year... You feel it too, don't you? ;)
