hello everyone! i am eugene, as you probably already know. but what you may not know, is why i wanted to start this blog! i shall explain.
1. i've always wanted one. old blogs have always interested me, especially in terms of their design and how people customized them. they're so cool.
2. i need a space for my thoughts. lately, it's been hard for me to feel real. i struggle a lot with dissociation (though only really learned about it recently), and i've been in a rough patch lately. if i record some thoughts here each day, it might help me to feel more connected to myself again.
3. writing practice! my latest project has fizzled out a bit, and i just want to keep up the habit of writing at least a little each day, especially as i have to start writing essays again soon. small steps are still steps!
4. something to look forward to. admittedly, i tend to spend a lot of my day just scrolling aimlessly through the interwebs, or rotting away inside. i want to try something new, make the time i spend at least a little more special as it slips away from me.
so, yeah. those are my reasons. hopefully i'll be able to make this a good habit-- i've never really been able to keep a diary for long in the past. only for a couple months at most, and even then i tended to skip a lot of days.
thank you for being here with me. take care of yourselves, stay safe and healthy. hopefully we can talk again soon~
