Where has my time gone? I let it pass so quickly… I’m 26, turning 27 on July 3rd, it feels bizarre, yet, it’s so normal, yet everyone experiences this feeling. The feeling of your heart sinking as you notice another decade of your life is soon to close!

There really isn’t a reason my heart should feel uncertain; it’s so normal to feel this way. I love this age, I love being in my late 20s and feeling more secure and confident. To be honest, it has to do with me caring less about what other’s think – it’s so freeing… It would have been nice to unlock that skill sooner, though!

Before starting, I wanted my first post to be life-changing for my reader. Something that will open up my blog with a BANG. In my daydreams as a “blogger”, I was already an expert writer and story teller. My ideas would be expressed clearly, and my grammar would be – well – I hope decent?

That need for perfection is the reason why I waited this long to start. It’s hard for me to even choose a niche to write about, my interests are vast! Art, crafting, career exploration, dating, personal care, fashion, dance, culture, cosmetics, travel, reading, cooking, shopping, and business!

I know, I know, it’s quite a lot but, we either have one interest, or 10, or hell even 20! I hope that as I continue to write, certain interests will grab my attention more than others. Are you someone who has a few interests, or many?

To be honest with you, I feel like an underdeveloped adult and behind in life. So, I come to you today, a humble, yet motivated version of Pamina. To introduce myself and to place a checkpoint as to where I am in this life. At some point, a spark went out without me realizing it. It caused me to to stop taking any action or autonomy of my life.

Well, oops – looks like I ended up becoming a “failure to launch” daughter in the process! Throw in any problems with the economy for a little spice and there you have me. Now confused, but slowly finding my way!

I’ve wasted time, and it’s on me. Now I am ready to fight for something better. In the meantime I will document my story and let the world know too. I am hoping that as I put myself out there and reflect on my experiences. I will learn a lot about myself in the process and hopefully help you too.

As I am reading this, there are a few parts where I think to myself. “Now, this definitely could have stayed in my diary?…”

Naturally, I feel extremely motivated and I am so excited to start this journey. Yes, it’s going to cover a lot of topics. But, I stand by what I write – even if it’s going to be messy, exciting, or even boring!

Are you also in your. ” oh my god I need to figure this shit out ASAP” era? I’d love to hear where you are in your story.

Thank you for your time so far, I hope to see you on the next one!
