I WAS REMINDED TO GO FOR IT




IT HAS BEEN 10 YEARS

For as long as I can remember, all I ever wanted to do was express myself. I have always been outgoing. I make friends everywhere I go. I have one rule: if I don’t make you smile at least once when we’re out, we didn’t do it right. With that being said, back in 2014 I made my first blog post. I can’t believe I took the first step by putting myself on the internet. It’s truly been ten years! 

In 2021, I took another step and started a YouTube channel. I woke up one day and just started filming. I didn’t question it. I just did. I am the only one who can hold me back. Enough was enough. At the time I was living in Puerto Rico. It was Christmas time. My first video went up December 3, 2021. I started with Vlogmas. A new vlog almost everyday. YouTube became my therapy. I was inviting anyone willing to listen to join and watch me on my channel.

Fast forward to today and my love for blogging and filing YouTube content has grown tremendously. I was terrified back in 2014. I didn’t care what the work thought. I was scared of failing myself. Instead of failing, I blossomed. I’ve grown into the confident woman I am today because I chose to stop being afraid and put myself out there. 

SO, WHAT COMES NEXT? 

I’m a couple of months I’ll turn thirty. I promised myself that my thirties would be for me. I would follow all of my dreams and take every opportunity that comes my way. I promised I would only spend time on the things I enjoy and leave behind the things that no longer serve me.

There’s nothing holding me back. I’ve been filming new blog conte for YouTube. A new video will be coming to a YouTube channel near you. If you haven’t seen my previous videos, I’ve been living in my first New York City apartment for over a year. I feel so blessed! I finally have my own space and can create and share the type of content I want. Bear with me, I’m still fairly new to YouTube. I am not a pro. I simply try my best and hope you enjoy the video as much as I enjoy the time making it. 

As you can see, this is the first blog post of the year. In fact, this is the first post in over a year. It feels like it’s been ages. I miss rambling on the blog. I miss taking the photos on busy streets and being the hypocritical New Yorker that blocks a small part of the sidewalk. I miss all of it and I’ve been getting back into the rhythm. 

I’m taking things slow for now. A blogpost here and there. A video every chance I get. There’s no rush for anything. As long as I am trying and am enjoying myself, that is more than enough. Soon I’ll be tweaking the blog a little so that my YouTube channel is accessible from here. For now, I simply wanted to say hello and I missed you. x
