Hello there!
I’m writing this because I got an update that Revue is shutting down, and I panicked about which platform I should use to write newsletters. Previously, I migrated to Revue from Mailchimp because of its user-friendliness and minimalist approach.
Now that they’re shutting down, I found myself studying and browsing Substack. I decided to move here since one of my dear friends started using this platform also. She’s
, and I love how she writes from the heart. You can check out her newsletter and subscribe if you resonate with it!Anyway, it’s been a while since I wrote a letter to you. I sincerely hope you are doing well.
There’ll be a few changes to how I write my blogs and newsletters. It’ll be more intentional than being a content marketer. I realized I should leave my content marketing hat at work and not bring it to my blog and newsletter.
But there’ll still be some resources that I’ll share from time to time, but the format will be like those written letters that we used to make back in the day. Remember when we’re rushing to the educational supply store and finding that stationery that smells and looks good? That’s part of my newsletter too.
I want it to be intentional and purposeful.
The new blog post that I’m writing revolves around those two words.
So, some life lately things:
I went out by myself last Sunday (December 11) for my self-care/pamper day. I braved the outside world and still felt anxious, but I did not back down. I see this as a small win.
I had ADHD burnout, where I lost interest in what I liked doing. Even the games I like felt like tedious chores.
I scored one of the games on my wishlist: Beyond: Two Souls. I streamed one of my gameplays earlier too!
I’m hyperfocused on eating pasta, hot and spicy canned tuna, and iced Milo! These are my current food choices I want to eat the most every day.
I’m flying out of NCR to be with my family for the holidays! Of course, Dakila and J will be going with me too. Dakila will travel by land through a pet transport service.
I’ve watched some FIFA World Cup 2022 games that messed up my body clock. I ended up enduring a migraine for two days. 😶 But I’m so happy that Argentina is making it to the finals!
