Uh oh. My worst fear is becoming a reality. I’m neglecting my blog big time. The worst part is that I know I’m doing it and it’s only making me procrastinate further. My list of posts I’ve brainstormed is getting lengthy and the moments I had planned to solidify in writing have escaped my head. I need to rediscover my self-motivation, and quick.
October was a busy month, and it feels like I've been constantly on the go. But I haven't given myself the time to spend working on my personal side projects. Beyond this blog, I have about fifteen other things going on in my life, and I'm pretty bad at prioritizing them. But, the good part is that I'm able to point these faults out about myself, write them down and reflect on them, and then keep working to make changes so that I can get to the place I want to be.
I’ve never felt more like an adult than in these past few months. And even with all the preparation and anticipation of how hard it would be for me to adapt to a new lifestyle, I still managed to shirk more than a few responsibilities. And for that, I apologize. This blog is something I’m so proud of, and I love sharing it with people. But it does need a lot of my attention, and lately I’ve been spreading it pretty thin. Luckily, I’m pretty good at making up for lost time. And surprisingly enough, I made some solid progress on my 101 in 1001 challenge without even realizing it.
Completed will be bolded. In Progress will be italicized. Incomplete items will stay normal.

Well, honestly that’s more goals than I would have expected to make progress in. I even managed to cross off a new one. Much of these topics are touched on in other blog posts I plan to write. And I hate to leave you on a cliffhanger, but you’ll just have to be patient until I can dedicate a full weekend to writing my heart out. I have to recap Hulaween, which was a fantastic music festival I went to last weekend. I've also got a few other music posts in the works, and some on the way about the upcoming holiday season. My head is too full of stories, I need to get them out soon.
As for November, I’m going to push myself to focus on one thing at a time. I know I said this last month, but I have a lot that I'm trying to balance right now. I'm kind of stuck in between two phases of my life, and I have no clue what to expect around the next corner. I guess you'll find out if I ever get it all written down.
