Blog Identity Crisis


So, I must have changed my blog layout dozens of times. I'm actually having a blog identity crisis. I started this blog mainly to have a portfolio for my Odesk writing. Then I've realized that I'm putting way too personal stuff into this that I wouldn't like my clients to read about. So I deleted this from my online portfolio and went all "jologs" with the theme. You must have seen this really jologsy layout I had back then where I went all out and used a pink-and-blue Victorian theme. Here's a snapshot of my header:




It was supposed to be a blog about effective but cheap beauty products because I would just about die than spend more than P300 on anything that makes me beautiful. This includes beauty and wellness products, clothes, and shoes. Okay, with shoes, my threshold is P2000 because I tried buying those cheap shoes that nearly killed off my beautiful toes and I swore never to entrust my pretty little feet on those damn cheap-o shoes!

But then again, I don't want to just write about beautiness (as my friend June might say), because that could get tiring, right? And thus that's the reason why I have those categories on top of my blog which I promise to populate in the near future.

Then I felt tired looking at this baduy image day in and day out. And tried to tune down the baduy theme. I wanted something pink and got this from The Cutest Blog:
 



But I didn't like that my text isn't readable because of the huge pink flower on the right side. And so I chose this new layout, but it totally doesn't go with my jologs theme anymore. But I feel I can live with this for now because it looks so clean. So I can't help it if my personality craves for a certain amount of order and simplicity with a little dash of kakikayan thrown in. (which is why I love that heart embellishment on the left.)

I absolutely don't want to start with another blog because it's way too tedious. So for now, suffer with me, dear readers while I sort myself out.
