Hello 2012

I decided to start a personal blog for a number of reasons:

(1) I've been experiencing things with quite a different lens over the past 3 and a half months since I got diagnosed with adrenal fatigue. It's been a really rough and unexpected journey, so I've had to just learn as I go, and try to figure out how to deal with this condition.

A few months ago I had no idea what a crucial role the adrenals had to play and I also had no idea I was abusing mine! Now I've learnt so much, and I can tell you they do A LOT for being such peony little organs!

(2) Some people suggested I write a diary to write down my feelings since one of my symptoms has been dramatic mood swings but I can tell you I've come a far way from my apparently introverted childhood when diary writing was fun. I'm pretty sure that my significantly high extrovert score on personality testing could explain why I find writing a diary a chore!

(Admittedly I do have a book for writing profound thoughts but I think the last time I wrote in that was about 5 years ago and I don't know where it is for the life of me!)

(3) I've been wanting to start another blog for a while now.
I really wanted another avenue to share more personal things, and anything other than stuff about hair - which is what my first blog The Hair Conversation is evidently about. I will be glad to be able to share things about health or things happening in my relationship with God or anything else. Perhaps more people would actually be interested in this blog since it's about more diverse topics and it should show more "me" :)

I'm hopeful.

Also rather droopy-eyed... time to say good night!
