Confession: Singin' the Blogger Blues

Writing was always something that I enjoyed doing. The only exception that I can make is of literary essays; I think we can all agree on how much fun they suck out of creative writing. 

To be honest, I made a promise this year to keep up with my blog writing. I kept setting goals for myself, and taking pride in following a more regular schedule, but it appears that I have ,er, fallen off the blogging bandwagon. Why? There's not a single reason that I can give, other than for the fact that I didn't want to keep second-guessing my writing. 

I always have so many ideas for article to write on this blog, to share my musing with you guys. As soon as I get home, I write down all of my ideas onto sticky notes, and post them on my mirror, as a way to visualize the concepts for the articles. However, I felt as of my ideas were coinciding with those of other beauty bloggers, and a lot of my material would resemble work that other bloggers had put out a few moments before I hit the publish button. I've decided to abandon the notion of backtracking with my own ideas, because it's not worth losing one of my favourite things, to something as small as writer's anxiety. 

I also took a break because I wanted to focus on making my content worth reading, and develop more of a "voice" for my posts. Like you guys, I get bored to death by bloggers who say the same thing in every post; it wouldn't be fair for you to go through such a tortuous ritual anyways.

Out with the old, and in with the new.
