With the ever-growing bank of information, virtual
adventures and journeys that twitter, tumblr, Instagram, random blogs and
journals take us on every day; it’s become increasingly difficult to find
things we genuinely want to experience. Not just because it would look good on
our Instagram feeds, or because our favourite YouTuber or that really cool
chick on tumblr posted it as a challenge.
Much like this post, the internet has a tendency to go on
and on and on with itself.
Just last week, I found myself googling ‘tumblr projects to
do in the summer’ seeing as all my friends are off on glamorous vacations while
I’m stuck at home. And by glamorous I mean cruises and road trips in America
and living in Dubai for a month and siestaing in Spain. I’m not even kidding.
I’m literally stuck at hoame, glued to my desk and chair. The highlight of my
summer as it seems is going to be looking distastefully at the huge pile of
books I promised to read this summer and scrolling through Instagram maliciously
double tapping all those holiday pictures that I won’t be in. Let’s face it,
that pile of books isn’t moving anywhere still. I'll be lucky if I can finish
the one I began reading two summers ago.
The truth is, there’s just so much crap, per say, to choose
from on the internet, I can’t decide which one I aimlessly want to waste my
time to do over the other. Spend loads of money buying film to take hipster
Polaroid pictures and stick them on my wall for no apparent reason? Or
redecorate my entire room with bloody fairy lights and dream catchers and
lanterns and rugs?
Say I’ve done all those things above. Then what?
That’s where this blog comes in.
