Another fresh beginning?

I was going to commit more to this account, I said. Time sure passes quickly. Another new year already, and in that timespan lots of pursuits have been abandoned, lots of ideas discarded. Well, in any case, the first day calls for honesty above all else. I'll strive to be more honest to myself, to follow my desires without inhibition but certainly with moderation. And I hope that I'll come closer to calling time my friend. Time to me has always been a fickle creature that I've let slip between my fingers. I don't think it's in my nature to dominate it by micromanaging every second. Rather, I'm going to savor every moment. If one tells oneself something enough times, maybe it'll become convincing.

2016 has been a year of hiatus for me. Now it's time for me to go back to place where I frankly have never felt comfortable in my own skin. Am I nervous? Certainly. However, I consider this my second chance at finding myself and I won't let it go to waste. 

The new year is about turning trepidation into excitement, apathy into desires. 

But enough with my abstact sounding musings! Fun things are planned ahead. I've surrendered myself to the desire to dress up as fictional characters. Most of my cosplay costume parts and accessories are going to come from Chinese sellers, as I intend to fully utilize my ability to somewhat communicate in the language lol. I realize if I'm going to do more than like two cosplays a year I'm going to have to attempt sewing at some point. In the immediate future the opportunity cost of making my own is too prohibitive for me as a student. (Read: I don't have time). That's not to say this hobby isn't already a piggy bank breaking one. 

Until next time, signing off now.
