Soooo, I finally did it. After three years, I say goodbye to the old layout and the old header. I'd loved them before, and they served me well in making my blog a bit presentable. But it's time they go.
Plus, the header I had doesn't get to me now. I'll be forever thankful to my friend who did that though. ☺ It is just funny to look at it now, I feel like it represents me as a geisha. Woman for hire, anyone? Haha! I honestly don't know why I chose that picture, must be those spur-of-the-moment decisions. Or maybe because it appeared to be the perfect representation of someone oriental. But really, it looks like it could pass off as Victoria Court's logo. Lol! But though I wanted to change it entirely, I couldn't stay away from purple! Plus, I fell in love with the background. It's perfect since I'm blogging from a country where maple leaves are so abundant, it has become part of their flag. Canadian Oriental Sanctuary - not bad, eh? ☺
Seriously speaking, err, writing, I need this change. You know when you're heartbroken you tend to change something in your life? For girls, it's mostly hairstyle, right? Yes, this is that kind of change. I'm not heartbroken, though. This one's a happy change.
I was just really happy today that I was inspired to blog and I thought I could use a change in design. That way I'd be motivated to write more. The urge to pour my thoughts out in writing was too exciting, I could've skipped while walking to the bus stop while I was thinking about it. And while on my way home, on the bus, all I did was jot down ideas swirling in my head I'm afraid I won't be able to organize if I didn't do it right then and there. I actually wished I had with me my trusty Blues' Clues-like notepad. There is just such joy in holding a pen and writing down your ideas, right? It was one of my most enjoyable journey home. I actually didn't mind the cold winds Fall has brought with it, and I can even daresay I enjoyed it.
The craving to get down to doing what I'm learning to be passionate about just filled me so much I went straight to my room and worked on this blog as soon as I got home. I thank God for giving me inspiring thoughts like that, that has made my now passion-filled heart excited. I do hope this isn't just a one-time thing, though. But I'm doing alright, I think. See, I'm already in my second post for the day. Who would've thought, right? ☺
Hey God, you have exciting things planned out for me, right? I can feel it and I thank you so much in advance for all the blessings that have yet to come. I am forever yours. ♥
