Leo's Ponders

 Doing stuff sometimes is just so weird. Me personally, I go through mental blockage and it's not even the task itself that is hard (most times), it's just starting the task. Even getting out of bed is hard these days. But I also don't really sleep enough so that can very much be a factor. Anyway this past weekend I vended for the first time ever. If you follow me on any social media you definitely know that. It was my first time selling my art and I received so much support than I anticipated. As someone who suffers from imposter syndrome I'm still kinda processing this and it 's crazy to know how much people care about me enough to support me.  But I've never done anything like that before. And I never planned to either. The opportunity kinda just presented itself. And I just took it. And I had a great turnout. Even if I had a bad turnout what matters is I did it.  I know I'm capable of many things and I know I have plenty potential, but I really don't...

 We are well into February now but I feel like I've never really reflected on the past year and how I felt about it. I'm not gonna get all crazy or anything but 2024 was such an interesting year! I usually don't make new year's resolutions because I fear I'm too wishy washy for that. I like to just go with the flow and see what happens. And I literally had no idea 2024 would go the way it did and ya know what I'm quite pleased with the outcome. The one thing I really wanted for myself last year was my license. I didn't want to turn 20 without it. And it happened! Do you know how satisfying it is to achieve a goal you've been wanting to complete for so long? I also switched my major to something completely unrelated to my previous one. I still wonder whether I made the right choice or not, but I feel like I did in a way. It's opened so many opportunities for me already and I kinda like what I'm doing. I don't like to have many regrets but I...

 So, yeah. I just randomly decided to do this because I am literally full of thoughts and I really do be pondering. I used to have a blog when I was 11, and it was pretty much about being 11 and also about American Girl. Wow that was ten years ago, look where we are now. I probs won't talk about American Girl (at least right now) but I def will talk about being 20 and turning 21 this year. Crazy times Leo is in.  A little factoid about me is that I felt like I could have an advice or musings column in the newspaper. I think I say things people care about, or would find amusing or helpful in a way. Or maybe they'd find it stupid, I'm not sure. But in another life I was definitely like a Dear Abby type of girl, or like Peggy Hill from King of the Hill with her musings column.  I'm not sure where to take this but I feel like blogs are kind of just one of those things you just do. Writing doesn't always have a direction, and I also don't like to be put into a box. A...
