#94 Time Was Passing Like a Hand Waving from a Train I Wanted to Be on

I'm back after a quick social media detox :D
I find that it's just so easy to get sucked into the whole whirlwind of virtual reality that you lose on out on real living so I took some time out to just get away from social media for a bit, recharge, think about what I want to do with this space and life in general.
I've really enjoyed having this space to connect with all of you. I enjoy the interaction, the exchanging of tips and tricks and of course, all of your emails that you have so generously written with the sincerest of hearts. I recently made a decision to go into full time teaching next year (made the decision only! Don't know whether I'll get in! Haha) but it occurred to me, of course, that I wouldn't be able to upkeep this blog very much when and if that happens. (All you teachers out there struggling with CRAAAZZYY workloads and still breathing life into all your lessons each day- I SALUTE YOU!)
Truth be told, I now feel like a woman on her deathbed. *cue dramatic music* I want to do so much more with this space before the possibility of having to leave it comes true. I want to write more, share more, reply more of your emails and questions and most importantly, remind you everyday that you are more than your body or the food that you eat. Way, way more. I want to promote connection and love and trust and fill up my little space here on the world wide web with so much positivity and love and optimism that it would come out like fairy dust through your screen and brighten your day a little, no matter how you feel about yourself at that moment :D
Sometimes when I read your emails, I feel such closeness to all of you; like we are a bunch of friends who'd known each other forever and we are just sitting around with our hair bunned up, wearing PJs, sipping tea and exchanging stories about everything and anything from body image issues to best facial places and uh.. where to buy cheap pots and pans. (hurhur- I've realised there is a secret aunty buried within all of us. We should UNLEASH HER!) I'm battling against time, working very hard to achieve all of that and I can't wait to share good news with you guys about my next giveaway (AREN'T YOU EXCITED! I love giving stuff away haha) or a discovery in my journey towards organic skincare (current knowledge level = 0.003%) or simply to just return home each day, sit in front of my computer and start off my post with a mundane 'Today I ... (went to the toilet?)'.
I don't even know why I'm writing all these haha. I wanted to write about my day and share with you guys about my new discovery about vertical gardening (YES! I finally found out how to plant vegetables in a HDB flat!) but my words flew right off tangent into a jumble of goodness-knows-what. I guess I just want to say that no matter how the future pans out I'm so, so grateful for this small little chance to have known all of you. (And also I will try and blog more often haha)
So from now till the next post, no matter where you are remember that someone out there (here) truly doesn't care whether you are size -200, 0, 4,28 or 2000. All I care is that you know yourself to be worthy of everything you envision yourself to be and I think of you often, especially in times when you think no one in the world could possibly be thinking about little ol' you.
