It seems that no matter how many times I tell myself to blog more, I have a few good, inspiring days and then fall out of the habit again. I really like blogging, and sharing my days with friends, old and new, on all ends of the country, and I really enjoy writing, so I'm not sure why this is so hard for me. It seems like everyone I follow on here is such a good blogger too, so I have tons of encouragement to keep comin' back. It's the same with journaling. I have hundreds, no thousands, of unfinished journals all over my mom's house and my apartment, which I was stoked to dive into...but eventually fell out of. It's definitely a new years resolution of mine. I was doing well this summer, writing something every day, even if I didn't feel like it was interesting enough....but I'm a couple weeks behind. My friend Kevin from San Francisco, is a journaling role model for me. He has written in his journal every day, since he was in 8th grade...and he's 26 now. Incredible! I even got to be a "guest writer" in his journal last semester, because he spent the night at my house every Tuesday night, so we experienced a lot of things together.
Along with the journaling dedication I'm trying to uphold, I am also doing a sort of other experiment: to try something new every single day. I was actually doing really well with that. One day I tried raw sushi. Another day I went paddle boarding for the first time. This past week I drove to Savannah, GA and back, by myself! I definitely plan on keeping this "try new things" thing up. I'll share some with you guys too!
I don't know if my lack of journaling/blogging this summer has had something to do with the little emotional rut I landed in this summer, or if it's because I am away from my green couch...where much of my inspiration comes from. But whatever the case, I miss it, and will be making an effort to come back to it.
