UPDATE: Hello, World!

Hello, world!

Yes, it is me, Nina. Life has gotten so busy. I just started my new job almost 3 weeks ago now and I just interviewed and took on a second job. So I will be working a lot but I still want to make time for what is important to me and you guys are still very important to me. For those who have been steadily reading my posts, Y’all know this is a HUGE stepping stone to finally get a different job! OMG, it feels so great like I can’t explain to you how good it feels to finally breathe again and not feel so stressed out all the time. I was rationing my money all the time to the point where I might have skipped a couple meals to make it through but I’ve made it this far, so things are picking up now.

Every day I feel like I have to remind myself to not feel discouraged. It’s so easy to get on social media and compare your life to what you see happening online with someone else; to forget that you’re only seeing things at face value and you have no idea what someone else’s life is like behind closed doors and honestly, you really shouldn’t care. I am trying to focus more on me. I am still planning for the future and I may not see how things will end up, but I still have to live in the moment of what is happening right now. This upcoming October will be the anniversary of my blogging website, I will have officially been online for 1 year and I am still planning ideas on how to change the website and make it look cleaner, nicer, and overall a better user-friendly platform, so stay tuned guys!

I’ve always been an entertainer first before anything else. It has always been a dream and desire for me to pursue a life of singing, acting, writing, and overall performing and it has been so hard to keep working long hours and feel like I’m not really doing much for myself that lines up with my dreams. I still write down song lyrics here and there when they hit me or record a melody line on my phone to use later. The passion is still there and I don’t want to lose it. I promised myself that as soon as things get settled and I have a clear schedule for work I’m devoting all of my time & energy to all of my creative pursuits; no more putting things off or not going places and having new experiences because of work, or anything else. I’ve already decided that come January 2019, I’m gonna go back to taking acting classes and I am going to stick with it this time, no matter what.

I made a lot of positive changes this year and overcame a lot of obstacles. I want to do more next year. Can you guys believe that 2018 is already almost over? We have what, 4 months left? Sheesh, time waits for no one. Well, that’s all I really have for you guys today. I just wanted to give you an update since its been like a month since I posted. I hope everyone is doing okay and hanging in there. Let’s reach our dreams, together. Lastly, before I go, I want to leave you with this quote:

“You need a little bit of insanity to do great things” – Henry Rollins

Until next time,

Xo,

Nina.
