Well hey there everyone!

I guess you haven't seen me in a while?
1. I am okay. :)
2. I want to be either a(n)
a. novelist
b. journalist
c. editor
3. Thanks for all the kind comments I received! You all are really awesome
So things did turn out okay--I kind of dropped my blog at the end of 2015, but I just wanted to return and say I'm alive. Unfortunately I don't have time to return regularly to blogging right now, but if and when I do, my whole mindset will be brand new--I really want to use my blog to honor God and inspire people. But I'll still be goofy Olivia, for sure :P
Last year was hard but good; I learned a lot and went through a lot and someday I'll get to the point where I share it with you all. But trust me, God matured me and changed me in amazing ways. I hope He keeps doing it. Or, that I keep allowing Him to do it. That's really what's up.
What's also up this year?
1) Taking a class at a local co-op/school (which means regular human socialization HELP)
2) School in general
3) Trying to get serious about life because um ADULTHOOD IN ONE YEAR WHAT
4) Trying to read more because that really enriched my creative side and I need to get back into it
Ahh. Things are crazy. I'm crazy. But God is good and He keeps on being good to me, so I'm more than okay now. I'm blessed.
I update my Goodreads regularly now so if you wanna friend/follow me on there (and let me know how you found me when you send the friend request so I don't freak out :P) then you can see what I'm reading!
Thank you all so so so so so much.
How have you all been? I've been trying to catch up on some blogs and drop comments here and there. Let me know what you all are up to! :)

I will sing the Lord’s praise, for He has been good to me.--Psalm 13:6(I won't literally sing though; I wouldn't want to do that to your ears :P)

ReplyDeleteRachel! ^_^ Dude, I've missed you so much! I see from your blog that you're thriving really well with senior year and your blog and just life in general and I'm so happy! :D I'm glad to be back :3
DeleteWelcome back to the blogging world! :) Sometimes taking breaks can be the most rejuvenating thing. This post reminded me of Psalm 34:8, "Taste and see that the Lord is good..." Also, your career aspirations are EXACTLY what I want to be, too. I'm getting close to graduating college now so I'm going to have to choose! *eep* Glad to hear you're back! Thanks for your kind comment on my blog! :)
ReplyDeleteHey Erin! Yes, breaks can be super refreshing. Psalm 34:8 is one of my favorite verses! I certainly have seen that He is good ^_^ That's so cool that we want to be the same things! I leaning more towards creative writing and careers in that field, but right now my battle is finding the right college and being able to pay for it! Yay for you almost done with college! *clapping* I'm glad to be back, and no problem! Your blog is always so inspiring :)
