LANI THE CREATOR: December 2018

2018 🡒 2019

By Lani - 11:48:00 PM

It's the last day of the year, and what a year it's been.

A lot has been going on in my life, which is why I've been away from this blog for the entire year.

I got my first job
I started dancing again
I met amazing new people
I transferred to a university
Exams, school projects, tests, etc.
I was in a relationship and experienced its end
I finally got my driver's license
And much, much more

There have been many ups and downs throughout 2018, but I couldn't be more grateful for all that has happened. Life is such a wild ride and I've definitely been on an emotional roller coaster.

For this upcoming year, 2019, I have some resolutions and visions to put out there:

To feel healthy, mentally and physically
To drink more water (I haven't been drinking enough)
To be mindful and stay in the present moment
Work on self-love
Find better ways to cope with stress
Work hard and stay determined
Stay creative

I hope to keep this blog alive and share more. I have many ideas, but I have to bring them to life. My first project is documenting my upcoming trip to Japan. This will be my fourth time visiting and I'm just as excited as I was the other three times. I don't think I could ever get tired of visiting Japan.

Once I get back, I start school again and who knows what else. But, I'll do my best to keep this blog alive and create memories to look back on.

I'm looking forward to all the things the new year has to bring.

Happy New Year, everyone!!

Thanks for reading.

A New Beginning

By Lani - 5:55:00 PM

Hello again, it's been a while.

As the year comes to a close and my mind runs free, I've decided to give myself a fresh start.

I'm Lani and I'm a creator.

This blog has always been a passion project for me, along with my YouTube channel.

I would create things when I felt inspired, speak my mind, share a part of my life with you, and, most importantly, enjoy myself while creating.

Somewhere along the line, I got lost. My love for writing and making videos was overshadowed by stress and life. I became shy and unsure, continuously doubting my own abilities and living in fear. The fear took over and even when I thought of making something new, I pushed the idea aside… because I was afraid.

Afraid of being judged.

A part of me is still scared that I will say the wrong thing and everyone will hate me, that I will fail somehow, or that I will disappoint myself. But, the more I think about it, I'm disappointing myself by NOT creating anymore. The fear will always be there until I actually make a move to face it head on. So, that's what I am doing.

In the words of Yes Theory, I am 'seeking discomfort.' I am going to put myself out there again and bring the ideas in my head to life, despite the fears that wreck my heart and mind. Even if no one reads this, or if the entire world does, I'll be happy that I did what I wanted to do.

So, this is me, Lani, the creator.

Hope you'll join me along for the ride.

Thanks for reading.
