tldr; my life remains wildly *unchanged*, even 10 months later. surprise!
Time flies when you're working full-time.
Let's take a quick look at what's happened in my life since November 2021 (in no particular order):
More failed flirtationships & situationships
Started a new job in November 2021
My grandmother passed away in December 2021
My best friend got engaged in 2021 and is getting married NEXT WEEK (Should I post my speech? 👀 )
I became a brand ambassador for sex toy company Bellesa!!! Most terrifying thing I've ever had to admit to my inner circle (sorry dad & male family members) but sex positivity and erasing the stigma is the name of the game. (Should I share my product reviews?)
Also my other really good friend is getting married on Thanksgiving weekend!
In just 2022 alone, I've attended 7 concerts, and I have 2 more in the pipeline
I got a paddle board & then my mom and sister also got some from the same company, and my sister got a brand deal from the company off a tiktok she made that went semi-viral!
Booked a replacement cruise for Spring 2023 to make up for the one in 2020 bc of the pandemic
I turned 27 in June 2022 - 9 more months until I've officially beat the 27 Club! ...Maybe one of the only clubs you don't want to join
My BABY sister turned 20 in August somehow?????... Digging a grave for my decrepit, geriatric ass as we speak
Made some new friends in my coworkers and had some semblance of "a social life" for a hot minute there in the summer
Oh also I finally got COVID at Easter this year ... for me it wasn't super terrible (thankfully) but I still couldn't work for almost 2 weeks because I was lingering positive for so long
I'm sure there's more that's happened that I'm not remembering at the moment, and that's fine. Probably easier to follow my IG (@parrell.ly) if you're concerned with my whereabouts 😂
Truth is, I think about this blog & the website as a whole ALL the time and I'm never sure where to pick up and what to talk about, or if I should just archive it all and put it to rest. I had intense writer's block for a lot of last year before things started opening up again, but even now, so much is going on and I do have a lot to say, but I don't know where to begin.
It's also tough because I feel like even though I have a bunch to share, you don't get the immediate gratification on blogs as you do on other social platforms, so it's like "what am I even doing this for if nobody is reading it". But also, I was getting a good amount of feedback when I was posting consistently from my social circles, which was also pretty rewarding.
I'm kinda over the Netflix roundup (there's just SO much), and not much is gonna change with my Christmas playlist or Halloween movies that I never watched most of last year.
What do you people wanna read about these days?!
xx,
