Hi everyone! How is your day going? This is my 100th post!! π΅ I cannot believe I have written that much ππ do I really have memories of all these posts stored somewhere in my brain? (Lock that door! π) it’s strange to think about it. All of you lovely people have encouraged and motivated me to keep going in the unique things you say and do! I’ve posted to my blog every second day for the past 7 months (do I say 8 now we have started July? π) and cannot believe I have gotten this far into it. I recently said to a blogging friend on here who mentioned in a tag that 5 years ago she wouldn’t have believed she would be blogging today: “isn’t it strange how there are things in life that we don’t know yet will become a passion in the future?” There are always new things to be discovered in life and it’s amazing how things can change for the better!
Recently I have been upset thinking about the people I used to know and the things I was once used to before health and homeschooling took me away from it all π it’s sad to see things/people have changed and grown so much. I’ve been giving myself lots of pep talks π to convince myself that there is nothing I can do about the past and even if I went back things wouldn’t be different (unless I had the mindset I’m in right now as then I would have been less shy, but that wouldn’t have meant I would be in any more control of my health). I’m just feeling very emotional but this celebration adds a nice emotional to it as blogging shows me how I am changing and growing too. Not stuck behind, I feel more confident and like I am doing something I am passionate about. I think now’s the time for me to get round to making that vision board I mentioned I wanted to craft in my summer bucket list post! π
After my post Blog update + need your help! I decided I will enter the Irish Blogger Awards following all of your lovely comments and support! The award website is still being updated for this year and every time I go on it I automatically hold my breath until it says they are still working on it, I’m so nervous for when they actually start the awards!! I keep thinking that when they begin and are open for nominations I will just pause and change my mind in a heartbeat but I promise you I will enter! In this situation I need to try put aside my worries and just go for it as I know I will be proud of myself in the long run for even considering it π.
Thank you for staying with my blog, it means so much (I cannot describe it π) here’s to another 100 posts of randomness! π Which I hope you will join me for as we continue this incredible journey! π
Thank you for reading! ππ Hope you have an incredible day!
Hi Elsie!
Congratulations on 100 posts! That is a big accomplishment :). I love your blog and writing style keep it up!
I often look back on the past and sometimes wish that things were different especially during times when I am struggling. After awhile you get through those struggles and come out on the others side, a better and stronger person than you were before. Sometimes I miss people from the past too and it is hard when people change and grow apart… You are changing too and will make good friends on your journey. Hang in there and know that it will get better.
Do you journal? I guess blogging is very similar. I like to journal and that has been a good way for me to reflect then later look back on my growth and the progress I have made.
Keep up the wonderful writing!

Thank you so much!! Your comment means allot to me. Looking back I get annoyed with myself for not being so confident and then I get upset seeing how people I barely interacted with have changed when I still feel like a kid. It’s nice to think that this will make me stronger and I like to think of it leading me to new friends. I don’t journal but now you’ve brought it up it might be a good thing for me to do so as to write about stuff I don’t feel comfortable blogging about. Thank you so much for your lovely comment!! Hope you have a brilliant day! π

You will notice it a lot in your twenties. I remember going through a period where it felt like everyone was getting engaged, then getting married, and having kids. Everyone just looked so happy it sometimes felt like I was falling behind in life.
Just remember that it is not a race and as long as you are being true to yourself and always moving forward and learning then you are right where you need to be :). I always like to say: “Be Real. Be True. Be You!”
I hope you are having a brilliant day too!
