Summer Ends, College Begins

Another new semester is upon us.

Summer Ends, College Begins
Preservation Of Moments

So, once again, summer is coming to an end, and a new semester has begun.

I had a really relaxing summer and I only did monthly articles since I wanted to take some time for me, but I will be going back to do doing my weekly articles in September. I do this every year now just so I don't run out of ideas and so I can transition from work mode to relaxation mode. My intent of this is to come back stronger than ever, and I believe that I always do because I always find some new topic to dive into and I appreciate everyone who reads my articles no matter how long winded they are.

Over the summer, I took some time to relax and I got a lot of awesome work done on my music blog, Generation Clash.
I was going through my record collection all summer so I could build up posts for my blog since college is time consuming and I don't want to lose time on it because it's a passion project and I truly love doing it.

I took a lot of photos this summer and I've had my photography blog in queue mode because I wanted to go into this semester being able to still do what I love because I'm a point in my life where I have a lot of things I love to do, I don't want to stop doing certain things because of time constraints.

My semesters get pretty crazy just because I work really hard and I don't always give myself the "me time" I should because I'm so focused on getting everything done, but I've found out that the same way that you need work time, you need free time.

There has to be a balance or everything falls apart. If you're like me, you always want to get everything done but then you're burning out before you even get the chance to do what you want to do.

I chose to work ahead on these blogs during the summer so I can stay motivated, because I have a tendency to go on hiatus when I get busy but I'm not letting that happen anymore. I've worked too hard to just start things and not finish them.

Since I'm writing all this, I want you all to know that I've got brand new content for the Odyssey, Preservation Of Moments, MeloCard Corporation, and Generation Clash!!

I look forward sharing them and I hope you all enjoy them!!

My thoughts will seem a little scrambled here, but I just want to get all of this typed out.

Firstly, I hope everyone has an amazing semester!

Secondly, since I'm a little behind in my messages, I wanted to say that I hope everyone is doing good!

My inbox will be organized soon, so don't worry.

The key to this is that I want to be more organized and I'm using my time effectively.

Little things can lead to big change.

Keep doing all the awesome things you want to do and use your time wisely.

Being single can be great and awful at the same time. Yeah, it's awesome to have time to yourself to figure out who you are and make your own decisions.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.
