I haven’t been blogging much lately, or at all ever, but that’s ok. See, I’ve been reading other people’s blogs instead! Pretty much the same thing.
I’ve been looking at self-image blogs, baking blogs (need to make those chai cupcakes ASAP), silly cartoon blogs, and my new favorite, fashion blogs.
I am pretty far from the most fashionable person around: many times, such as right now, I am content to lounge around in a t-shirt and gym shorts or pajamas and contemplate how long I can get away with not showering.
But these fashion blogs have intrigued me. I want to dress pretty when I leave the house. I’ve even been making more of an effort to do that. I want to feel happy and photo-worthy in whatever I wear.
Or so I think now. It does seem like a lot of work. Either way, I do not currently have the wardrobe or the reasons to make an effort each day with what I wear. After all, I have a master’s degree to finish! I will not be attempting a fashion blog. I will continue to waste hours looking at blogs like this one, where people talk about how nice they look while working on their graduate degrees. Oh…
But I will not let this go completely! I have felt somewhat uninspired in much of my blogging, but I keep doggedly writing “travel/living abroad” dribble every month or so and shoving it into the faces of my facebook friends. No more! Well, maybe some more…
But now I am also going to talk much more specifically about certain aspects of my travels! About what clothes I packed, how they worked out with the activities that location has to offer, and what I wish I had had on that trip. And then I'll take some pictures. And hopefully by doing this, I will start to put more thought and effort into the way I look, and that'll make me happy!
For the next few weeks, I am going to be writing about the trips I’ve taken since September, and when I’m done going through my travel archives, I will start posting stuff for trips before they happen.
That’s the plan, anyways.
