i've been using this blog since i was 13 years old. not even a high schooler yet. throughout the countless social media profiles i've had, this is the only one i never had the heart to delete. it has been with me for so long, and seeing my archive and likes is always such a trip down nostalgia lane.
this blog had many phases — it grew up with me, kinda, and many of my followers/mutuals are inactive by now. i still visit their blogs and i think of them kindly. they said goodbye earlier, and maybe their blogs weren't as important to them as this one is for me, but through them i was introduced to so many great stuff.
i've been struggling with the urge to start anew lately, and that applies to everything, even to this safely kept blog, that i never dared to taint with my obsessions i knew would only last a few months. but this time i want new things, and i want to let go of a lot of stuff.
i won't ever delete it. i'll probably log in occasionally, because when you have a 8 year old blog that's just how it is. there's stuff in my likes i look at daily, messages i reread with fondness, so i'll still explore them from time to time. however, mostly, it's time to say goodbye. i don't think anyone's going to read this, as it's mostly a post for myself to remind me that i'm officially letting go of something, but thanks to anyone that made my experience here mean so much.
take care.
