New life...who dis?
I used to blog.
I am trying to make a come back, and this is my first post back.
Firstly, why did I neglect this online home that housed my thoughts, feelings and attempts of fulfilling my creativity via photography, doodling, graphic design and style posts?
1 - I got a job mid 2017 that for the first time since entering the world of full time employment that utilised all of my brain capacity and hours between 9-6pm. Thus leaving me drained and beat when I got home. I also used to do all of my online research and photo editing at work too (with the permission of my bosses...sometimes ) which was not going to happen at the new place.
2 - Instagram. Yup, I blame insta… and I know a lot of other established bloggers I follow have mentioned the same thing too. Don't get me wrong, it is a great platform, my favourite actually, but it's sooo INSTANT (hence its name) that content gets created and devoured so quickly that the traditional blogging style could not keep up. So for the past two years I took photos, ran it through VSCO cam and post it on the 'gram. All of this, all from the convenience of my smartphone. No need for my laptop, no need for Photoshop...JUST NO NEED.
Then there is the reason why I AM RETURNING to the blogosphere.
I had a baby.
I'm on maternity leave.
I can't continue watching all seasons of Glee on Netflix.
I am DYING for an expressive outlet.
I need to be me again, the old me (at least partially) and this blog was that for me.
Travel. Design. Photography. Fashion. ASIAN THINGS. All coming back.
And… As this MamaBamboo is now a real Mama so there will definitely be motherhood related stuff. There might even be poetry… maybe.
So readers … nice to see you again, hope you stick around for this new phase and I also have enough content to keep you entertained. For the meantime, here is our Baby Maya....
