Finding Inner Peace

Off by another day. Ok so maybe it's not daily yet but this is a solid effort on my part I must say. 

July is the time of year in Florida that we usually see a lot of rain. Hurricane season is indeed in full effect right now so I've been stuck inside not really doing much. Lately, this rut I've been stuck in seems deeper than usual. I've been walking in circles almost, trying to figure out what the next step in my life will be. While I'm hopeful that something great will come of these next few years and that I'll be elevated to new heights in my career path, I can't help but think that at this moment, the bump in the road is more like a lengthy pit stop at a shitty motel. I mean take a look at some people, for instance, Tavi, a blogger who was, what, 14 when she was going to fashion shows with huge designer names and writing for hundreds of thousands to read. Now she owns a super popular website, a magazine, so much accomplished and she just graduated. 

With young people excelling at such a quick rate, I feel like my clock is just ticking away and I'm only nineteen. Imagine feeling like your life is already maxed out before you've even hit your twenties. It's nuts. 

Right now I'm mostly getting my life on track, getting ready to head back to school (college round two) and attempting to maintain a decent enough job to keep the cash flowing my way so I can save up to something worth while. But for now, what do I do. I've sat around for hours feeling so helpless, but I tell you what, that time is over now. 

Oops. - Summer/Fall Inspiration

Ok, wow, I made a promise and I already messed up. But I had an honest excuse. If spending time with an old friend I haven't seen in a year and going night swimming with a gaggle of my stupid friends is an excuse. So I apologize and daily blogging starts right now. 

Round 200

Let me clarify, when I said I would be posting more, I obviously ment I wouldn't post for months only to come back and give the same terrible "I'll post waaay more often now" speech because I feel like it's that time yet again to pick up the whole blogging thing. Let this be known, I will forever make that statement if I'm on long hiatuses because I do love blogging. I love expressing the things I'm passionate about, whether it be makeup, fashion, heck even food, but I love doing this. I think for the most part it's just a lack of motivation because whether I like it or not, blogging is a commitment. No one wants to follow a blog that only posts when they see fit. That's not how this works. You, the reader, expect me, the content maker, to produce content at a somewhat standard rate. How can I ever expect for someone to read my blog, let alone follow my blog, if I'm not even going to somewhat stick to an even slightly regular schedule.

So as of today, July 8th, 2014, I'm making a pact because this is what I love. I from now on will post something every single day. I swear. It won't even be just a crappy "this is it for today" post because I don't owe you that. I owe you a significant, detailed post about whatever. Granted it sticks to some kind of theme of fashion/makeup/whatever. So if you actually think I'll stay true to this kind of promise, feel free to keep reading as I start this everyday journey. Thank you.

Life Goals - SFX Makeup Artistry

Special effects makeup has always been something I'm very passionate about. Makeup in general was just a gateway into something so much more beautiful that I never really even knew I could do. Basically from YouTube, I picked up such a weird skill that I would have never guessed I was good at. 

When In Doubt, Figure Things Out

"Let us not seek to fix the blame for the past. Let us accept our own responsibility for the future."-John F. Kennedy

Everyone has things about their life that they'd like to change. I've dug myself into more holes than imaginable and sometimes it's just hard to figure things out. I hate feeling like I can't do something for myself or that I've done something that I can't fix for myself. I guess I've always been independent like that. But more so than recently, I've felt the floor of rock bottom and it's hard to accept reality. 

Review - Pinky Paradise Circle Lenses!

Before you get sketched out by the title, I know what you're thinking. I'd read a lot about circle lenses and colored contacts bought from over the internet before and I could have sworn that I'd never buy them until this last Halloween rolled around. Then I decided to jump on the super kawaii bandwagon that was circle lenses, and let me tell you, I was happily surprised.

The Only Way To Get Things Done; Do It Yourself.

So this is it. I've come full circle again and now I'm back to my blog. Literally, this is the one thing that I've kept coming back to time and time again. But I've decided that this is it. I'm sticking to it. I'm at a place where I think it's suitable for me to try again and try at something that I feel so strongly about. Writing for my own blog, keeping up with YouTube and my gaming website Kill-Screen, it's all something that I've wanted for so long. So this is the first stepping stone to me getting back on board. I keep doing this and I'm tired of how much I procrastinate and fall on and off the bandwagon so now I'm going at this will full force. You'll see so much more from me, I promise.
