I’m Back!!!

I always manage to get behind on projects. Even when it’s something I’m really passionate about, I always find myself behind.  I made this blog with the intention of posting 2-3 times a week, and the last time I posted was in October.  I know, I know April is definitely not 2-3 times a week, but I never forgot about this page.  I just find myself easily caught up with the things going on in my life or lacking inspiration.  Somehow I always find myself tired at the end of the day and cannot seem to put fingers to keys. Yet I can still watch Fairy Tail on Netflix or Crunchy Roll (it’s one of my current favorites).
I wanted to do a quick update post, to say what’s going on in my little world and let everyone know when I’m going to start posting on a more frequent basis.
So since I thought of this blog on my birthday last year, a lot of things have changed for me.
  • I moved to back to my home state. 
  • I broke up with my boyfriend of 1 year and 11 months (I’m okay with it, I have an amazing family and great friends that supported me through my rough period. My rough period was actually before the break up—like Valentine’s Day of 2013 was my rough period and we did not call it quits until mid September)
  • I have 2 part time jobs. 
  • I’m also a full-time student in a competitive placement nursing program (this is my first semester). This is the biggest reason I find myself lacking the will do to anything half of the time.  Chemistry class is my worst subject (it was in high school and it still is) and I feel mentally drained by the end of the day.
  • I also started my own home-based business. 
  • I’m a pescatarian/pollotarian (still working on giving up turkey and salmon)
So I’m a busy little bee. However some things have not changed for me:
  • I still love books.
  • My hair is still natural (2 years June 16th!!)
  • I still love my melanin
  • I still do my best to buy black when I can.  (Some things I just can’t help buying though, like my laptop battery)
  • I still love melinated men! (I may have fanned myself a bit here, don’t judge me)
My semester ends May 10th, so I’m going to be posting more here as well as on my newly redone YouTube channel.  I also plan to expand this blog a little bit, so please bear with me. Some posts will be about the books I’m reading, some will revolve around natural hair care, some will be about my business, etc. I did post a few pictures of my outfit of the day featuring one of my favorite Kemetic based designers so my next post will be involving the clothing I have purchased from there. 
Until the next time,
