i woke up before september ends
sorry for that old reference. yes it's green day.
honestly this feels very ... strange, bizarre even. you know that feeling of taking a quick nap during the day and an epiphany hits you out of nowhere? that was the how it felt when i decided to just re-build every thing from the start. almost zero.
it kinda feels like a reborn.
i started blogging when i was only thirteen. a teacher at school introduced me to blogspot and i got caught in the magic of expressive writing right away. my first blog only lasted for 6 months or so, before i created another one. got bored with the url and signed up for a prettier url. i cannot recall all of the urls i used before i settled down on one url from 2009 until 2018. that blog knows me better than i am and all my life, my life problems, my likings, resentment, friendship, fangirl life—everything, they are all neatly archived there. i tried wordpress, tumblr, livejournal, and eventually signed up for medium and substack, but it never felt the same.
right when i was craving for the sense of fulfillment coming from writing and posting longform contents, i came across a friend's personal website that made me feel like coming home.
hence,
welcome everyone, but mostly myself, to borrowedhaven.com!
sorry for such an emotional intro haha. i feel so unbelievably giddy about this idea of just writing and posting with no character or medium limit (or yap, nowadays they call it yap). microblogging has some impacts on me but i am still willing to share and express everything i think and feel here, in the newly built digital home that i want to come back to.
i will come back later with more stories to tell.
anyway, crazy that september is ending in a day. what a perfect time to click a restart button. and i know this is not quite relevant, but i still love that song.
summer has come and passed
the innocent can never last,
wake me up, when september ends.
see ya!
