Hola my ALLYs!!! (From the word "allies" . Since my name is ALLYSSA which I decided to call you guys) :)
After being MIA for 2 years, I’m pleased to say that I’m back in blogging. You see, the reason why I stop is because I felt that I didn’t get enough credit in what I do. I'm also not expert in English grammar. I really got insecure in how bloggers are great in their writing skills! Mine is totally high school! HAHA!
Anyway, moving forward... It’s really hard to re- start a blog specially now in today's blogging generation, it’s not easy to step up anymore since most of the topics that you want to talk about are already shared by the bloggers.
We (my sister and boyfriend who were my photographers) put so much effort in every blog post that I published. Hey, don’t get me wrong, despite of that hard work, I must say that some brands did noticed me and you can imagine how I looked like when I told my sister that finally after HUNDREDS (not kidding! I can show you my sent items) of email that I sent, finally, someone reached out and one of them was International brand! That was so surreal! It did motivate me to continue because they saw something in me and in my blog. FYI, I wasn't getting paid in my 1 year of blogging.

After waiting for months starring in my email, no one reached out and I really got frustrated and thought that maybe this is not for me. I know most bloggers may say that “don’t do it for the money” “don’t blog to get freebies or sponsors” I get that totally! In my opinion, you do what you love and be happy and that’s what matters. BUT let’s be real, who doesn’t want to earn and be recognize in your work? Right? Its REALITY!
I decided to come back because even though I’m not blogging anymore, there’s still one company that constantly sending me gifts and sometimes I feel awful for receiving it because they don’t get something from me. This made me realize that there is still people who believes in what I do and maybe they saw something good and real in my blog. I have been asking my friends, sister and boyfriend if I should go back and they said that you should totally do it if that’ll make you happy. YES it makes me happy sharing my thoughts and opinions. You guys know “multiply”? “myspace”? The old blog site before blogspot, wix, etc… I had all that! I really blog back then! Okaaaaayyy. I’m 2_ years old already? HAHA

So anyway… I guess I’m totally gonna do blogging again and I can’t wait to share with you my very first event that I attended to after blogging for so long. :)
See you in my next post! <3
