I stopped celebrating my 4th of July anniversary of my now defunct long-term relationship and am approaching the two year anniversary of Shibooya in 4 days. It’s hard to describe where I’ve been with this blog and where it’s going. My interests are confusing and varied- I’ve dabbled in crafts, complained about college, reviewed films and novels, cooked and baked and believed myself to be a photographer. My posts are nonsensical, personal, trite babble but I love it anyway.

Even after months of not updating and at the point of expiration, I couldn’t bring myself to let the domain go. There isn’t really too much here worth salvaging- but I want to keep it just the same.

I recognize it’s been months since I’ve updated the blog. I recognize that I had no real direction, no sense or purpose or growth to my posts although I desired it.
I feel I might take a new direction, a different approach to blogging on Shibooya. I went through several transformations recently, the first being the end of my nearly 6 year long relationship. The second being the discovery of a new love, a new romance that has always been dormant in my heart. And the third being a new and exciting business venture that I’m determined to pursue.
