New Year

It's a few hours before I turn 20, and suffice to say I'll probably be awake once the clock strikes 12. I'll be spending my first few hours in the health center since I have my duty there - the graveyard shift. 

My blog's officially 5 years old, and what better way to celebrate than to change its layout and all? Yes, I am the perennial dork. Last year, I wanted to change my blog's skin because I felt the need to start over. I made a difficult shift in priorities than resulted in, well, a major change in my life as a student. Well, it's no big deal now, looking back. Since not once did I regret leaving my publication, where I was once the EIC. 

Now, I wanted a new change to welcome another shift in my life - in a few months I'll be leaving school to become whatever it is I want to/can/should be. I'm not sure which is which though. But the point is, I am probably one foot through the door of "formal adulthood" as of the moment. And, I am probably leaving behind the badge of "the whiny kid blogger" because I have a feeling I want to really really really blog for real now. I want my blog to really focus on what I really like to talk about - food, photography and humor. Well, I'll still post whatever youtube video I like, but at least I'm holding on to a stable identity...after 5 years of blogging on everything under the sun. 

It's been a slow, shaky and uncertain pace for me through the years. And I think I’ve finally found the foothold I’ve been looking for.

Let’s see where the next decade takes us, shall we? 


Oh, and today's Chinese New Year, so...there's a cause for celebration. :)
