Let me break it down for you "Being Shameless" simply means doing what makes you happy, going after  your dreams, bot being afraid to take risk and chances.  I know for a long time I was scared to take chances and risk because of what people thought about me or what they would say. Now I'm at the point in my life where I don't care what anyone has to say , as long as it's making me happy that's all that matters. As well get older the things we want, the people we surround ourselves with change.  I'm at a point where I'm ready to live "Shamelessly"  To really go after what makes me happy and just be around good genuine people.

"What's Next "

/

So I am now 22 -years- old  and I've been thinking "What's Next" for me? I am at the point to where  I'm owning every bit of who I am . I am about to make some amazing career choices and some awesome  moves that are only going to make me better.  I'm officially going after what I want and not turning back. Life is about taking risk and doing what makes you happy despite other people's opinions.  Sometimes if you want a dream bad enough , You have to be willing to fight for it and back it up 100% all the way.  I like to  think of myself as the modern day "Carrie Bradshaw" . She's a writer who is honest, spontaneous and know the right things to say. When you believe in yourself so much , Other people start believing in you too. I'm ready for a big evolution in my life, with new people, adventure, Making unforgettable memories that will last forever.  I think the beauty of growing is evolving into the person you want to be and surrounding yourself with  like-minded  individuals like yourself.  Sometimes the journey is the bigger picture of the story , We are tested to see how far we  are willing to  go to reach our dreams. It's not easy but it's always worth it in the end . We have to  be willing to take the leap of faith into the unknown to make something that people thought was impossible , possible.  I don't know about you But I'm ready to make that leap of faith and go after every single thing I've ever wanted in life since a was a little girl. Now it may require some sacrifices , and really letting go of fear and just knowing that it's all going to happen and work out for you. So you can do it! Stand up , Be bold and Go after your true passion, with love and Determination. I promise you will succeed. 

"I dive into the future 

But I'm blinded by the sun

I'm reborn in every moment 

So who knows what I'll become"

"I'm Back" TheStyleJounralist

Hey!, Guys so I'm finally back. I know right it feels like forever that I've been gone . So originally I took time off to redesign my blog , but honestly, that didn't go well because people wasn't following through. So even though my blog is not looking the way I want it to look I just had to come back to blogging.  I am working on the redesign and hopefully, soon it will be looking better, but  I had to start blogging again because I missed it so much .  I have so many things to share with you guys, I will be starting up my  YouTube again and making videos and vlogs and such , so be on the lookout for that.  Also, I'm going on a very exciting trip In two months ,  But I have just been finishing up the last couple of weeks  of school.  Also, my 22nd birthday was two weeks ago on April 1st, and I must say I've had already learned some lessons.  I've learning for the past two years how important taking time for yourself is, and I haven't really been doing that. So I think for the next couple of weeks I'm just going to be focusing on my blog and taking time for myself and just really focusing on the things that matter and that are super important. Also like I bet you guys are like What she renamed her blog , yup I renamed my blog to "TheStyleJounalirst" Simply because it was different , something I really liked and describes how my blog is somewhat going to be. My blog is kind of like a journal , but I also try to share style as well. I will be doing a lot more style post so be looking out for those. I'm just really ready to expand my content and what my blog is about and makes it something epic and exciting. Hope you guys come on this new journey with me and I appreciate your support so much !!!
