ONE. AT. A. TIME.

I know that I have been what seems to be quite the hiatus, but I promise you it was not even the slightest. I feel something I tend to do is try to roll out so many things at one time. Then, the end result of that is eventually biting off WAYY TO MUCH THAN I CAN CHEW. (…see my foodie reference there… LOL just kidding!) In all seriousness, I do get so stoked in knowing I want to start so many new projects, plan more events with family and friends, while balancing what pays the bills…my day job. That may have sounded a bit negative when I used the phrase “my day job”. Do not get me wrong at all, I am so thankful for this opportunity before me. I honestly, have not felt appreciated in the workplace in SO LONG. So please do not take that in the wrong way.

Anywhooo, I think what I meant to say is balancing priorities and extra curricular activities. I laugh because now I understand why in school they stress to you so much with the importance to not just fully be focused on all studies. But to remember to take extra curricular classes, activities, etc. When you weigh your time and efforts into something solely because you need it for your priorities. It can mentally drain you and blur the talents which we all have!

All in all, what I had to do in the beginning of this year is remind myself… “ONE…AT…A…TIME.” With the support of my best friend Celine and her amazing talent revamping my website. I am back and ready, hello nömsters!

“Foodventure : The search of new foods/cuisine to try for yourself.”- Urban Dictionary

Last year, which of course was only 3 days ago, I was already planning all the way into October of 2019. I remember thinking of the numerous upcoming events, planning trips in between, and just flat out in awe of how fast I already saw the new year fly by. As I was planning out goals, projects, or anything; I kept going back to the question, “Do I even have time?” Every moment my mind would gravitate towards that thought, I felt the flush of anxiety and stress just hit all at once.

I back tracked a bit and reminded myself that, “The year isn’t even here yet, you have plenty of time, CALM DOWN.” Once I jotted down my goals and projects, I followed to prioritize them. I narrowed down my top 5 goals out of what I had written down on the paper in front of me. The rest, I reassured myself, would be extra if I could accomplish them by the end of the year. Again, reminding myself, that “IT IS OKAY.”

Therefore, this twenty nineteen, one of my goals will be to venture out with food. I want to explore new noms, enjoy new eats with my family and friends, discover new recipes to cook, balance a healthy lifestyle, and take the time to indulge every now and then. With exploring means findings to share through my blog and vlog with you all! Hoping to hear back if you get to try any of the places, your experiences, and even receive any recommendations from your own individual foodventures.

‘Til Next Noms…
