I have something to say

Hello world!
It's been a while, or at least it feels like its been ages since I last wrote here. But the reason for the absence is because I've been thinking a lot. I've been thinking about how I spend my time and what I actually enjoying doing. This blog fell into the category things I don't enjoy doing.

Sure I like writing on here sometimes and maybe I will every now and then (although they may be private) but I think that is because I let out my thoughts. I don't go back and check my writing 'like you're supposed to do' because I finally got it out of my head and I don't want to think about it anymore. I don't even know if I want people to read my thoughts, especially people I know, I think its kind of weird.

Maybe in the future I will create an anonymous online journal to write my thoughts, but you will probably never know, unless you guess its me... I will congratulate you on that day!

What I'm trying to get at is, I don't enjoying blogging here and I think I haven't for a very long time so I am leaving this blog. It will remain open for you all to read, unless I change my mind later on. I am on Instagram @itsrubydean and flickr under 'It's me, Ruby' both of which I am testing out as new platforms for sharing my stuff.

I have been blogging for over 3 years and I don't regret starting it. I have learnt SO many new things from blogging (more than I can probably remember) and I'm so thankful for that but I don't think I will grow anymore on here.

After all these years of writing and reading blogs I do neither now. I have stopped reading blogs because they don't interest me like they used to. It definitely feels weird going on my computer and not doing either of those.

Okay I have officially run out of things to say so I'm going to go now. Thank you to everyone who has read even one post of mine! I will be lingering in the comments if you wish to say anything there.

See you somewhere,
Ruby xx

P.S. My domain has nearly expired and will go to rubydeanblog.blogspot.com.au when it does (date unknown).

The Self Discovery Project • Day 5

Monday 15th

Helllloooo again!
I was supposed to write this Tuesday and post it Tuesday afternoon but as you can tell it didn't happen. Then I wanted to write and post it yesterday but that also didn't happen..

The first thing I did (other than write a to-do list, eat, get ready, etc.) was my school work, like every other weekday. After I did some of it I went searching for a new recipe to bake and I found an amazing brownie recipe (so unhealthy though).

The reason why I baked on a Monday was not because it was Monday and we need baked goods to get us through the week, but because we volunteer at a nursing home on a Monday and I bring baked goods (these Anzac biscuits are the biggest hit so far). This is practically the only time I bake so I had to make 2 one for the nursing home and one for us (ours had choc chips), even though they don't eat much at the nursing home.

When the first one was baking and I still hadn't decided to bake another I finished reading my current book, Matilda, don't worry it was good, Roald Dahl was an amazing writer. Then I cleaned it up and started again. While that was baking I started a new book, Better Off Friends. Then we had to go to the nursing home. This week I started joining knitted squares they made, so eventually it will make a blanket.

When I got home I decided to read some more of my book. After that I was sucked in. I stayed up until 12 finishing that book. And I actually did! I finished 2 books in 1 day and finished a book in one day for the first time! Also, just to let you know, its not a big book, I can't read that fast.

Well I should get to work now, my English text book won't write itself.

P.S. I only took 1 photo and it was a crappy one of the brownie that I sent to my mum so I thought I just won't post any, although I could take one of the slice now and put it in. Thats not cheating is it?
