Halló! It’s been awhile, yah?
I’ve been busy eating, drinking, and Hipstamatic-ing my way through the Holidaze, which accounts for my VERY pronounced lack of updates and posts. Apologies. Hopefully you’ve been basking in the glow of Christmas and New Year love with your friends, family and/or significant others–hopefully all the above!
If there is one thing I’ve learned from my very difficult move to paradise, it’s that
the Internet is not a place, so you shouldn’t LIVE there or live for it.
…something I’ve been guilty of doing to the max for many years.
While I love my website, I made it more than a large chunk of my life while it only partly enriched me and frustrated me to no end more often than not–a terribly uneven relationship! So there is no resolution to have, except that I need to learn how to enjoy life in ANALOGUE, not digital. I need to not be Mae Lu on paper, on the dotted line, in the pixels, but Mae of Kahalu’u, O’ahu, Hawaii, the happy camper who wears flip flops, listens to reggae, drinks beer, flashes shakas (hang ten symbol) and is super chill (all things I was decidedly NOT prior to my move).
So happy New Year, Y’alls. You have each and every one of you been a major blessing, and I hope to continue to provide funny, well-written fashion prose for you for yet another year. Please stick around. I want to take you on this new happy journey I’ve been on, and hopefully I can bring some of that happiness and gratitude to you, too!
Mahalo, my loves.
I leave you with something beautiful to watch until the countdown touches the stroke of twelve.
