I met up with Rachael today, and it was pretty wonderful. The girl always just makes me comfortable for being me, and I never feel like I have to be anything more. Catching up with friends, these days, I have to admit… does tire me out. It seems, I’m more used to being on my own nowadays, that any company besides my own actually physically wears me down. I feel odd writing that… being only 19, but it’s the truth, you know.
Blogging. It’s a funny thing. I’ve been thinking about it recently. Though I’ve started planning for a new blog (she has a name, and a few category names in store yay!), I’ve still felt quite unsure about it. Leaving Facebook and Instagram… it’s been so nice to live the real life without having the feeling of having to document it at all. Was I ready for a blog? For a girl who has blogged since she was twelve, these feelings were out of the place.
Somehow… today, when Rachael suddenly brought up my blog at the end of our catch-up (I was pleasantly shocked), it was like an answer to all the doubts that I had in the past few weeks. Rachael, of all people, would be the last person I thought would read my blog. But she did. I felt touched in all the right ways, and knew right there and then… that there was a reason blogging has been on my mind for the last few weeks. And it’s time I do something about it. (Stay tuned.)
