Why 35

My sleep deprived brain decided to write this post about why I chose this year to start doing this. I have a range of answers.

First,

I think it was Casey Neistat who started doing his vlog when he hit 35. I did actually think about vlogging, but then I thought about all the editing I’d need to do, and I decided to say no.

Second,

I really wanted to create something, to write something down. Like making my own mark on the timeline of humanity. I guess at the end of the day, there would be this version of the things I make this year to be a super zine of some sort. Sustaining the momentum of the creation would not be the consideration, but just a theme to center me for the year.

Third,

Taylor swift had her Eras tour this year. She’s my age. She definitely feels it too. Nuf said.

Fourth,

Along with creating something, a part of me really wants to sync the things I have together. Like it should be that simple, and it kinda is. But why is it so hard for me to pull the different strings of my different hobbies in the same direction?

I thought I should try to do it at least once, and I have no idea how it’ll work out, but I’ll try it.


That’s all for today, I hope to survive Open Fields well, and hopefully we get by safely today.
