Since I've been gone Sunday, May 31, 2020



Hi! It’s been three years whew. 

I’ve decided to go back to blogging. Well at least try to. It was crazy because I was lurking around twitter and suddenly missed tumblr. Later on, I posted some film photos and a tumblr friend of mine said she stalked my tumblr. Haha! I immediately logged in to my tumblr and also checked my blogspot site and damn, it was pure bliss. Looking back at how passionate I was before and how I produced those posts and photos, it made me really miss blogging and miss my old self. And so with that, I decided to go back to blogging.


Throwback storytime

Since I’ve just come back, I thought I should share some of my memories of my blogging journey. I started back in 2012 as I was turning first year college. May 6, 2012 to be exact (I checked). All I had was my laptop and the photos that I posted were just grabbed from my friends. I think I also used my phone back then, my Nokia C3. It later evolved somehow as I got an iPod touch for my 18th birthday. As far as looking through my old photos, mostly they were just events wherein we took a lot of photos or had photoshoots with my friends. Others were just thoughts that ran through my mind. 

I remembered that there was a point in time where my laptop broke. That didn’t stop me from blogging. It was either I post in my iPod touch or after school hours, I use the computer in the library to do my posts. It’s a funny memory. 

During those years, I’ve also talked with a few bloggers who became my friends. One of which is ate Yesha (sheiscrazyesha). I remember we had many conversations before about anything. And through the years, I’ve met her for real life! Still mind blown with that idea. I also wanted to meet our other friends from Manila back then but I never got the chance to visit there. And up to this day, I’m still hoping I could meet them sometime. One other friend is Xeph (engineerxeph). She’s one of the biggest reasons why I came back. Thank you Xeph! She really inspired me to do this.

As I went through the years, many somehow moved to blogger. And I kinda went with that. I rebranded again to ˆ’wanderlaska’. I blogged mainly there but I didn’t leave tumblr. I still post here and just linked the whole story to my own website. OH yes, I paid for a domain. 

And after like almost a year, I had to prepare for my board exams which meant, I couldn’t go on photoshoots or photowalks which meant I had to stop blogging. It took me awhile to get the title and my lifestyle changed in that year. I never got back to my blog. 

But here I am, gonna try again. I hope it’s gonna be a good journey.
