As advertised, I am using this blog of mine with absolute unprofessionalism- much like my first college internship. If you are still here, congratulations! You are either one of my closest friends who couldn’t make it to my wedding and this is your way of making up to me; or, you are my partner and you don’t want to be kicked out of the bed. Whatever be the case, thank you!

In the last 6 months, I have moved across the globe and I am finally be able to share a home with my best friend. We have been through equal proportions of life-altering/affirming moments in this time; you would think I’d have enough content. I have even been to Paris- isn’t that supposed to be THE temple of inspiration? Yet, I couldn’t find anything to write about.

I can see my creativity on a beach holiday, sipping on a Daiquiri (or five). And my determination? Well, we had a bad divorce about 3 years ago and its been kinda awkward since. I guess what I am trying to say is, it got difficult for me to put my thoughts into words and for those words to shape into a story. It was almost like a staring competition between me and a stubborn, blinking robot on an empty screen. I would start my research on what creates an engaging blogpost and about 45 minutes into it I would find myself impatiently waiting to know ‘Which melancholy vegetable matches my personality?’ (FYI, I am lettuce).

I wish I could tell you that I did everything I could to get out of the slump. Aside from an unhealthy amount of caffeine consumption there wasn’t much else I tried- somehow just embracing this void felt easier.

After what feels like an eternity, the thought of writing didn’t repel me as hard as the other days. Maybe today will be different. And I hope you will be here, cause this journey is far from over- even if it doesn’t include any lifestyle insights, we will surely share a few mildly amusing anecdotes! Until next time!
