Oh, Hi There…

It’s been about four years since I last found myself here—sitting in front of my trusty pink laptop, doing something I used to love deeply: writing. And now, here I am again.

So, what’s been happening these past four years?

Well, let me tell you, it’s been a whirlwind—filled with moments ranging from the craziest to the happiest. Life, as it turns out, had its own plans for me, and they were nothing like I imagined.

I’m 25 now. It’s funny, isn’t it? I used to wonder endlessly about what my life would look like at this age. And now that I’m here, it feels… surprising. Shocking, even. Not in the way I’d pictured when I was 20.

Back then, I had all these expectations—visions of how my life should be. But over time, I’ve had to let go of so many things I once held onto so tightly. Things I thought would define my happiness, my success, my path. It’s been a bittersweet contradiction—realizing that sometimes, the life you didn’t plan for can still hold so much beauty.

Alright, Let Me Break It Down for You…

I graduated with my Bachelor’s degree from LSPR a year ago! Honestly, it still feels surreal. I can vividly remember writing in my old blog about how thrilled I was to get into my dream college. And now, here I am—looking back on that journey with so much nostalgia.

But before that milestone, there was a chapter of my life I don’t often talk about. During those years, I had to focus on something far more personal—my mental health.

It was a tough but necessary journey. I sought help from a psychiatrist, started medication, and had my fair share of sleepless nights. I worked with a therapist and fought, every single day, just to "live"—all while balancing work and studies. It wasn’t easy, but it was worth it.

And Then, I Moved to Germany…

Yes, you read that right—I packed up and moved to Germany! Honestly, it took me a while to fully understand why I made the choice to move so far away from home.

But when I reflect on it now, the answer is simple: The Grace of God.

This leap wasn’t something I planned meticulously or expected to happen. It felt more like a calling—a nudge toward something greater, something unknown yet full of possibility.

I’m not diving into the details here—haha! The story of how and why I ended up in Germany will be saved for another time. 

Beyond the Highlights…

Of course, those are just a few of the big moments from the past years. There’s so much more I’m excited to share here on my personal blog.

From my faith and my journey with Jesus to the lessons I’ve learned along the way, this space is where I’ll pour out my thoughts, and personal growth—there’s a lot to talk about, and I can’t wait to take you along for the ride.

I think that’s plenty for an introduction! I can’t wait to dive deeper and start writing about specific stories, lessons, and experiences to share with you all.

Thank you for being here, and I hope you’ll join me on this journey.

Jesus Loves You!!

With Love,
