Today is May 5th.
Today I wrote my first advanced placement exam for English Literature and Composition.
Today I tried deep-fried tofu.
Today I did goofy yoga poses in the sun with my sister.
Today I admit defeat in my goal for this blog.
You see, my initial idea was to maintain my "Holidays for Everyday" until June 20 (my birthday). The problem with this idea was that it became more of a chore, and less of a hobby (as it started out to be.)
I never intended to give up this easily, I did honestly want to accomplish something with this blog.
Turns out I accomplished several things that are entirely unexpected:
- Went international -> I have been read in more than 20 countries, and continually subscribed to by 4. This alone, is more than I ever could have hoped for. Even when I check my stats, and I see that 6 people have read my blog since I posted an hour ago.. it's so exciting!
- Broadened my horizons -> I tried cooking on my own for goodness sake! This is entirely foreign to me!
- Made people happy -> You all know who you are.
- Forced me to do some research -> It's not as easy to make sweeping statements about historical events when you're publishing it than when you're just chatting up a friend.
- Made me a geek -> Like the new layout? I had to figure that one out by myself. Html ftw.
By the way. Archivo Del Blog means is the Spanish equivalent for Blog Archives.
Don't ask me why I did that. It gives my little blog character :)
All in all, I have enjoyed giving my blog a bit of a "point" and not just random rantings of a caffeinated lunatic. Trust me, I had to resist the temptation sometimes..
But it has come to the point where I need something fresh for A Slice of Life.
Something new, something exciting.
After all... Yesterday was National Renewal Day :)
In the meantime, be prepared for a few rants, and perhaps a few nonsensical ravings.
All for now,
Aimee OC
