Blog Challenge #02: Why/How you started blogging?

Image
// nigmatillium // I started this blog seven years ago, in 2010, and oh my goddess, that's a lot! I remember I was spending a lot of time on anime forums, and there was a topic about personal blogs, and maybe someone told me about blogs before, I'm not entirely sure, but it seemed fun and I decided to start one too. Thinking about it, at the time I might have just wanted some space where I could write about things that I like, that interest me, and to share them with people that might come across my blog. When I made the blog I was enthusiastic about it, I wanted to write and write, but as I grew up I started not paying as much attention to it, which is a shame, shame on me, and still, at the same time I always had the blog at the back of my head as an escape place. I didn't have a topic to write about, so I posted this poem by Mircea Cărtărescu , author we were studying at the time in school. I don't have a subject for my blog now either, I just go wild, I...

Blog Challenge #01: Meet the Blogger!

Pleased to meet you all! Haha! I was born in a small village that, quite frankly, I don't want to talk about. I didn't like anything about it, starting with the people. Everyone was too focused on showing others how good their lives were, and how wealthy they were...

Blog challenge!

Flower graphics designed by Freepik So, long story short, I decided to make a small blog challenge. I have a couple of free days, and I remembered I actually own a blog. I have no idea what on earth I am doing on here anymore, but at the same time I don't see why I shouldn't be doing anything at all. I am going to post every topic of the challenge once a week, I haven't quite decided on a day, but I think I'll post them on Sundays.  That being said, let the challenge begin!             P.S.: Anyone can take part in the challenge if you wish so.
