Hello again, Tumblr.
Hi hello, my name’s Coleen. I don’t really know what I’m doing but here it goes.
The past weeks, I’ve been thinking about starting a blog where i can dump my thoughts and musings into.
Instagram stories just seems so... fast, I can’t keep up. I also feel so /seen/, it's bad for my anxiety. Facebook's full of people I know and don’t really know - I don’t want to be vulnerable there.
I do have a diary but it's for things too personal that I don’t want to share. I also don’t think a journal is the place to put character analysis on my favorite shows. How do i attach photos and gifs! I don’t want to print them out haha.
I’m too awkward for Youtube - I will die. I’m way more comfortable with writing. I tried Notion but the setup seems too hard and complicated. I want something more manageable on the get go. I like twitter but it’s so limiting. I miss writing paragraphs & nerding out on things I’m genuinely interested about. I miss giving proper thought on my state and my experiences. I miss giving deep thought on new things, new shows that I come across - why I like them and why I don’t.
Social media nowadays just feels so much like an escape. It’s overwhelming just being a consumer of content, with different sites fighting every second for my attention.
So maybe that’s why I’m starting to blog, again. It’s a way for me to reclaim the internet as a safe space for me to be myself and get to know myself even more. I still don’t know what I’m getting into but here I am, jumping once again with my eyes closed.
