Simply Sammie

This was originally posted in May 30, 2014 in my original blog. But I had to migrate my blog to a more stable one. I am also gave up on blogging because it is such pain to redo all the deciding I did previously when starting my blog. But... I must commit.

"The only way to start doing it is by doing it..."

I think I read that quote somewhere around in Facebook and I truly agree to it though starting to do something is one of my weaknesses.

This is it! I just started blogging and I don't really know how to start! So I just decided to do it and let whatever thoughts or words flow into my very first post without having to contemplate what I should write about.

I have always wanted to have my own blog and the words would often flow into my mind and my fingers are actually aching to type them before I lose the train of thoughts. But I have always been such a huge failure with blogging due to so many issues (actually excuses... meh!)

I wanted a certain theme.

I've had lots of ideas then:

1. Poem Blog - I created one before in Tumblr.com but I was not able to constantly post my creations. I think it's been years since I last wrong a song or poem. I enjoyed writing poems before and then putting some tunes into them so they become songs! I wonder if I'll be able to rekindle my love for songwriting and sort of revamp all these old songs I have written before. Maybe... We'll see...
2. Travelling Blog - I wanted to call it "The Travelling Frisbee" featuring my boyfriend's very own Frisbee, which happened to be present in all our travels and adventures! But I never ended up starting that one as well because I was too idealistic with my plans! My boyfriend even offered to design the site for me being a Java developer and all.
3. Fitness Blog - I am so much into health and fitness nowadays so it fits! There are lots of fitness blogs I see that actually help me in my overall health and wellness journey so this is something that I would truly enjoy doing if only my plans pushed through!

So yeah, I have all these ideas that exist only in my mind until now! I wanted a certain theme for a blog but I just could not decide which one. So why not do it all, right? I bet that was simplest idea but not at all really.

I am not consistent.

This is such a huge blocker to me. I tend to start something only to leave it behind afterwards. I am inconsistent but I am working on it.

It feels like I don't have the time

Actually, I am only able to start now because I am on vacation leave from work. So yeah, I just spent my time deciding an appearance for this blog and writing up my very first post! Yey!

I am freaking scared

Of what? Of so many things. I am scared of failing. I am scared of being rejected to the community. I am scared of getting judged. I am scared that people will comment and tell me my grammars are wrong! HAHA! Crazy little mind! Actually, I would not mind that. It's part of the learning process.I just can't help being irritated to be corrected but will be grudgingly grateful for that.

But as they always say, "courage is not the absence of fear" AND that one should "face their fears."

I am a fierce little girl and I usually show that side of me when I am on the road, driving. My point? Nothing. LOLz. Well, I can face my fears so I guess that's a good thing.

All in all, now that I am scanning through my post before hitting the "publish" button, I think my premiere post is not such a bad one. Not a kick ass read but we'll get there. Hopefully, I'll get to improve my writing further and overcome my struggles through prepositions (to, in, on, at... darn it! When will I figure this out?!)

A simple post from a little lady called, "Sam".

This will be my little world filled with SAMplified Instigation. Now, I am happy. :)
