Migrating to a new blog

New year, new grown up blog?

The thought urge to create a new blog has been on my mind for quite some time now. I feel like I need a blog that describes me as I am now, not 17 year old Vijeya. I did unclutter and delete some posts of this blog a couple of years back, but somehow, it's not quite what I need it to be.

So after spending too much filtering through posts, and playing around with themes and layouts, my grown up blog is now up at https://vijeya.wordpress.com

Of course there were some posts I had to take along, because some things (and times in my life) I need to be reminded of. The rest? I still have them all downloaded and saved, so I can import them if I feel the need. That's so me isn't it? Holding on and letting go.

My life right now is so different from when I started this blog. In the past year, I have been an interviewer (the tables have turned!), Secretariat for two international conferences, MC for a seminar on transforming the public service, and so many more things I would have never dreamt of doing. Hopefully, I can slowly build an online presence that matches that. Yup, Instagram and Facebook are going to need some spring cleaning too. Boy, this is a lot of work...

Will I delete this blog? I am an emotional bag of fluff, so I don't know yet. That's how I work, holding on and letting go.
