Today Marks 4 Months Of Me Blogging (Nov 11th, 2018)

Hey everyone I hope you’re all doing well, i’m not quite sure how long this blog post is gonna be, I just wanted to share that today marks 4 months since I first started this blog!! I don’t really have a whole lot I want to say, I don’t think……..I started this back around the summer time (July 11th) when I wasn’t feeling the greatest and was a little lost on what it was that I wanted to do………when I was going through a lot, I turned to writing and I noticed that I was writing a lot more during my low times and I don’t know, I just had this thing come to me to where I thought to myself, “You know i’ve been writing a lot lately, maybe I should start a blog or something” and after that thought, the next day I did.

I remember being excited and nervous at the same time, because I wasn’t sure whether or not, I was gonna do well with it. I had a friend of mine help me get started and once I started and just wrote I found myself enjoying it and I also found myself becoming a little happier when I was writing. Now for me blogging, I thought it was just gonna be an outlet for me to just kinda help me get my emotions out and all that. I had moments where I questioned myself a lot on whether I was doing things right…….I also had moments where I didn’t write posts for a while and that was because I was still struggling on some stuff, I was having days where I didn’t have the inspiration or motivation and because of that I wouldn’t write and i’d wonder whether I should continue with this or not, but I remember also starting this to have things be different.

I didn’t want to continue to stick to my old habits where, I would start something for a good while and then lose interest for it later, so just to sum everything up that i’m trying to say……..even when I have days where, I don’t have the inspiration or when i’m having days where I question myself, where I lack motivation to even want to write posts, I still do my best to push myself to do it, because I don’t want to give up on this, I want to continue to grow this blog as much as I can, even on days where i’m not feeling that confident in myself or when I question whether or not i’m doing things right.

I know everyone has a different writing style and everyones different and as long as you believe in your own stuff and you continue to do your best, there isn’t really anything wrong you can do, you just gotta keep going and just continue to work hard and do your best, because that’s all you can really do. I still have my days where I think to myself “am I doing alright!?” that’s always on my mind, I actually wrote a post earlier on that, i’m sure you guys have days where that’s on your mind as well, but I think as long as we remind ourselves and reassure ourselves to just continue to do our best and keep going, then we’ll be fine, as long as we don’t throw in the towel when things seem to be a little rocky then we’ll be fine……..I’m happy that I started this and i’m glad that I started this.

By the time you guys read this, it’ll be the next day, I believe it’s already considered the next day, i’m finishing this post up close to midnight, it’s around 11:50pm and i’m tired, i’m in a calm state of mind though. I’m not quite sure how any of this is coming out, I hope it’s making sense…………I don’t really know what else to say, I can’t believe that i’ve been doing this for 4 months now, it’s mad, but again i’m happy and glad that I did and that I still am. That’s a big thing for me, because I thought the minute I found myself not posting as much before on here when it came to the times where I just didn’t have the motivation for it, I thought this would be something I gave up on after a while too.

I’m just glad to know that, I didn’t, I don’t know what it was that made me still want to go fourth with this and continue, but whatever it was i’m glad I didn’t stop. For those who read my posts and enjoy it enough to where they want to continue to follow along with me in my world of blogging and subscribe to my blog site…….thank you, it means a whole lot to me, it really does!! To those who I have shared a conversation with on here, I really enjoyed connecting with you in those times and I hope to connect with more of you along the way. I don’t really have anything else I want to say expect thank you and that i’m glad to have this blog, i’m gonna continue to do my best to grow it and just make sure I don’t give up on it even when i’m having one of those days to where i’m not sure.

Last thing I want to write before I call it a night, is that if you guys are interested in checking it out, I uploaded another chatting session of my new thing I have with All Things Random, you know where I talk random topics, if you’re interested in checking that out it’s on my blog site already, I shared it on here, when I uploaded it, I just forgot to share it with you guys, if you don’t want to scroll so much on my site, you can watch it here if you like: All Things Random: Writing/Blogging, PVRIS & Rock Sound Podcast (Nov 3, 2018)

Coming up with this idea of creating something where I could just sit and talk about pretty much anything that I wanted, I don’t know I just really like that idea. Although I didn’t have much confidence at first with going through with it, to have things that inspired me to want to give it a shot and just see where it could go, it means a lot.  Sometimes a little inspiration can help give you that boost and also that confidence in yourself to try it out even if you’re the only one enjoying.

Okay I don’t have anything else to talk about so, thank you once more and I hope that you all have a goodnight/morning and or evening.

 

All The Love ❤ ❤

All Things Random

Hey everyone, I hope you’re all doing well, this shouldn’t be a very long blog post, but we’ll see. I just wanted to tell you guys about a video that I just uploaded onto my Youtube channel, i’ve been thinking on this idea for some time and after giving it a good amount of thought, I decided to go for it and see what I can do with it.

You might be a little confused about the title of this blog post, but it’s actually the name of the video. So just to explain it a bit, I came up with this idea of talking about different topics but in one video, I got the idea and was inspired by one of my favorite Youtubers by the name of Lucy Moon, i’ve spoken about her on here before, can’t remember which blog post I mentioned her in though, but anyway ummm she (not sure if she still does) but she has these videos where she sits and talks about whatever it is that she’s feeling or whatever topics that she wants to talk about and I use to sit there and watch them and I  really enjoyed the way you know where it felt like you were just having a one on one conversation with someone except you’re talking into camera or just listening to the person speak.

Every time I would watch it, I would get inspired to do something like that myself, now I had this idea for a good while, but I never quite went forth with it, until I started listening to this podcast, now i’ve been thinking of trying out podcasting, but as I looked into it, I realize it’s a lot of work, so I thought maybe I should come back to it and you know just until i’m feeling a lot more confident in myself to want to move over to that side of town, in the meantime though, I can make videos talking about whatever it is I want to discuss you know, plus I felt it made sense to try it out that way first considering I have a Youtube Channel and all, I hope i’m making sense here.

I’ll try and explain this next part better, so just to give you guys a little heads up on what the videos will be about, there’s not really much to explain really, all it is, is instead of just picking one topic to talk about for a video, I chose to talk about 3 different topics and make the video kinda like a podcast, buut not a podcast, it’s not a podcast really, although i’m trying to have it to where it’s close to one, but I still obviously have to work on that of course, so yeah that’s pretty much all it is, nothing too extravagant, you know, I just wanted to share that with you guys, when I finally decided on going forth with the idea I had in mind, I was super nervous, I recored the first part 3 times, the 3rd time was the final one, the other 2 attempts yeaaah……..didn’t go that well, well i’m sure they would’ve been fine if I just looked at them and picked up where I left off, you’ll probably remember me talking about them in these posts here: So That Went Well…….Camera’s…….. & Just One Of Those Days

So yeah, I don’t really know what else to saaay………except for if you would like to watch the video, it’s on my blog, if you don’t want to scroll that far though, i’ll leave it here for you guys: All Things Random in the first video I talk about: Dealing With Funks as well as Confidence and some other stuff too, two topics I actually wrote blog posts for, you guys might remember them or you might not I don’t know…….ummmm but yeah, that’s all I really want to say. I was super nervous uploading as well as recording it, but was a little excited as well, it’s a new thing that I wanted to try and so I hope it’s okay, it’s the first one so it’s not super perfect, but editing it and watching it over a lot, I feel it’s pretty alright. I also thought it was a good idea to do videos like that because I could pick topics from here if I wanted to and share and talk about them on my channel as well, so yeah.

Again if you guys are interested in checking out the video, it’s there for you guys, you don’t have to, but if you do end up watching it, thank you in advance and it means a whole lot. Anyway, I won’t make this blog post too long, so I hope you all have a goodnight/morning and or evening.
