My 3 year blogiversary was a couple of weeks ago, and I am so deep into studying and school that I missed it! I can now think clearly, as my first block of medical school exams are done, aha. I had some things I wanted to celebrate and discuss from the past 3 years, so this post is better late than never. I want to share how much everything around me, including myself, has gone through change and different iterations since starting PreMed Wear Pearls. I love to think I have a great time capsule/diary to look back on and remember specific points of my life, and myself in a certain time. And now that I am no longer "PreMed," I am looking to give this space a bit of an update, so stay tuned for that 😋.
For starters, we are not premed anymore! I am officially a student doctor, and it just doesn't feel real yet (and yes, I have been in school for over a month, aha). It has been a big change, but felt like no change at all; it really does not feel like I moved to a new state because all I do is go to campus, my apartment, and Trader Joe's on Sunday's, aha. I really have not seen much of Indianapolis, and now that I know what my work load is, hopefully I can get some exploring in.
Style- Overall, my style has stayed the same. But, I have gone through different seasons of style, if you will. I am loving my current season with classic pieces and adding a elegant, feminine, grandmillennial twist. I have loved exploring every season of my style and sharing it here. Exploring new seasons of style has always been one of my favorite parts of my creative side.
Location- So we have had quite the changes of local since starting PWP. I started it when I was in New Jersey and about to start my Master's. I was so excited to be living on the East Coast and starting a big new chapter that blogging felt like the right complement to my new chapter. Since then, I have been a bit all over and loved that I can write, create and share content from wherever I am. It feels really full circle that I moved for school again, but now am in medical school.
Feeling most like myself.- I don't know exactly what it is, but I really feel like my truest self, and think that being a blogger has helped me come to that. Having this space has allowed me to just share what I love and I think that is why I feel like I am the most myself. I unapologetically share all things I love even if they are not what the trends are. I am an old soul and embrace it fully, and whats even better is that I have found such a great community that also shares what I love! I have also made some great friends through social media, and even though we have never met in person, I feel like were becoming close friends.
Trying new things in the social space.- For years, I said I was never the girl to have and use social media. I didn't even have an Instagram account until 3 years ago. So I am proud that I have branched into this space, took a leap of faith and started something I had thought about starting many many times. I think having this space has also brought me out of my shell a bit. I used to be pretty shy and introverted, but have noticed myself become a bit more social and little bit more extroverted. It has felt like a welcome change. (Also NEVER thought I would start a TikTok, but here we are, and loving it!?)
What's next on here? Like I mentioned above, I think a rename and mini rebrand is on the horizon. I have no clue what I want to rename this too, so I am not jumping in because I want it to be a thoughtful change that is not rushed. PreMed Wears Pearls is still my brand, but she just needs a little facelift to elevate her to where we are now!
Happy belated 3 years, PWP! I am so happy I have you!
As always,
#dontforgetyourpearls
