As I just wrapped up the second semester of my sophomore year at USC, I have definitely gained an awareness of time. For one, I'm not sure when I suddenly became a junior in college and graduate school, jobs, the big RW "real world" became things to consider. In the chaos of papers, projects, and exams, writing for my blog has become secondary. Sometimes, I would sit to write but become daunted by trying to break into my own Flickr account to upload pictures and then thoughts of school-related tasks would flood my mind. So, I would put it off until another moment of quiet. As I became rustier and rustier with blogging, I felt less desire to sit down to write and more inclined to mindlessly binge-watch Jane the Virgin. But, what I have recently realized, is that there is no standards for what this blog must be. I used to think that I had to upload at least once a week and to update my Instagram constantly. However, if I've learned one thing this semester, it is that anything you decide to do ultimately much nourish you. Otherwise, what is the point of the work or effort if you do not feel satisfied or you're not brought joy in the process?
As much as I am trying to be more aware of this newfound wisdom, college is the exception to this mantra. This semester, I found myself not too enthralled by my classes. Whether it is the fact that I took summer classes last year so I am burnt out or the content was simply boring, I feel flat out exhausted by school. That being said, I am excited to announce that I will be interning this summer in Washington, D.C. If you guys are the least bit interested in hearing about my internship experience, please let me know! I am interested in orienting this blog away from the classic outfit post reel towards more practical posts which could benefit fellow college-students/struggling 20-year-olds! (Yes, your girl is now 20-- I'll be making a P.O. box for you to send me a cane!)
I just wanted to pop in to say that I am alive after all of these months and I am sorry that this semester ruled my life. But! We are back in action for the summer. I plan to post whenever I feel so inclined, so comment any post requests you have in mind. xoxo Izzy
