      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>it feels like it&#39;s been forever since I last blogged; even moreso when you actually count the years. life keeps moving fast paced and when everything&#39;s just coming at you and trying to wear you down, you spend all your energy trying to withstand the tide; and then where&#39;s the motivation to blog? stress release was better served then by reading, gaming, or just – sleeping.</p>

<p>but recently i&#39;ve had some major life changes, and it always seems like i blog whenever something major happens. in a way, my life is very boring if i&#39;ve found nothing to blog about; but that was actually because i could adequately explain what has happened in my life and that suited me fine.</p>

<p>recent events, however, have left me utterly speechless and reaching futilely for words which i couldn&#39;t define. trying to form a sentence left me floundering in a word puddle that, frankly, didn&#39;t make sense and just irked me, because I thought, I used to be better than this! but it turns out no, not anymore, because I haven&#39;t written in ages.</p>

<p>so when these recent events hit, i was kind of at a loss for words. and it&#39;s been extremely hard for me to even begin to figure out what was happening. so i&#39;m going to try to motivate myself more to blog more; to speak more; to write more clearly and contextualize what i could not before.</p>

<p>hopefully it&#39;ll work.</p>
