329.


Well, well, well. How nice of me to finally come out of hiding eh?



It has been almost an entire year since I last posted. That is entirely unacceptable and too long. After I was required to post assignments for one of my journalism classes, I lost the drive to post about the things that I liked. You know, fashion, style, current events, books, my life, spoken etc; for all of my loyal followers. It's new years day, and I felt like it was only right to start this back up again. Since I've last posted, so much as happened in my life. You know, 329 days is a lot of time. Of course I'ved laughed, cried, laughed, smiled, screamed, argued and all that good stuff.

More significantly, I cut a majority of my hair off back in August. Since then, it has grown a great deal, but that was a major point that occurred in my absence that I had to share. I'm now a second semester junior, with 3 semesters remaining of my undergraduate career. This past fall was one of my toughest semesters. I just had a lot going on. At first it was hard to juggle and balance, but I eventually got the hang of it. I'm glad that's over with. But I can also say I'm a proud brother of Phi Alpha Delta Pre Law Fraternity. I rushed a frat. Who would have thought?

As for catching my dreams? I'm slowly but surely doing so. One step at a time, my dreams are coming to fruition. I had big plans for Versatility at its Finest. And honestly, they too were coming to fruition but all of a sudden I became bored and asked myself what was the point of all this? The shirts? The models? The brand? The blog? I began to question everything. It was overwhelming. People at school referred to me as the girl with the dream catcher shirts. Idk if I liked that. I was new to the university, as I transferred from John Jay last fall, so I needed to cultivate my own and get comfortable with the changed before I just hopped into promoting the blog.

People who I mistakenly thought I could trust tried to take advantage. They saw something with potential such as the shirts that I created to promote this here blog, and they wanted in. While I was blinded by their initial motives, I kept it cordial, and kept it moving.  I had plenty of support and was given plenty of advice, but it took me this long to fully comprehend and value that advice.

Now? I'm honestly just focusing on finishing school. This blog is supposed to be a stress reliever, but it was creating unnecessary stress which is why I stopped blogging for so long. I hope to keep my eye on the prize and blog again.
