Blog Changes, and New Content Are Soon to Come!

Due to permanently leaving social media websites such as Facebook and Instagram, I’m renewing focus on this blog, and I will exclusively share my photography, and the majority of my writing on this website for friends, family, and those of you who have stumbled here, to enjoy! Rather than rushing to post content or having an emphasis on goals such as getting a larger amount of viewers/traffic to this blog, I will instead focus on publishing quality (and original) content. Nonetheless, if the viewers come, then that’s fantastic, but if they don’t, that’s fine too, I’ll still be here doing my thing!

 This is a place for me to still connect with people, but even more so an outlet for my creativity, and expression my thoughts and opinions, through writing, photography, art, or whatever else I may be indulging in. Essentially, I plan on posting perhaps 2-4 times a week, occasionally more if the content is relatively shorter than usual. But I am also a full time college student currently focusing on pursuing a double majoring in both English and History for my bachelor’s program. After, I will be entering a master’s program to eventually become a junior high, or more than likely a secondary school teacher.

So, if you notice another lapse of posts, worry not, it just might mean that school has me a bit tied up for a week, or … I’m traveling which will definitely be happening more once the Covid-19 pandemic chills out. With all said, I look forward to contributing towards my blog again after a nearly 2 year lapse in activity, and it sure does feel great to be back!

Oh…. and If you notice my grammar is sometimes off, that’s likely intentional for some papers! To get that break from college writing, I’ll sometimes be informal or use slang haha! (And the cover photo is the Honolulu skyline that I took December, 2019!)

Auroras And Car Lights

InkedIMG_1407 - Copy_LI

I took this picture outside of Fairbanks, Alaska; mid December of 2017. One of the first Aurora photos I’ve ever taken. Also, this was definitely much on the experimental side. Although slightly blurred, I feel the picture overall captures the Alaskan winter at it’s best! A car just so happened to drive up, as I was using long long exposure settings on my camera to capture the auroras!
