I’ve always been one to play it safe. If you know me in real
life you’re probably shaking your head behind your computer screen, but it’s
true. Am I loud? Absolutely. Determined, strong minded, stubborn? Yes, yes and
yes. But deep down I prefer to go unnoticed, to not draw any more attention to
myself because let’s face it my laugh does a pretty good job of making my
presence known. I’ve always wanted to make sure people didn’t judge me more
than they already do. But I’ve learned that constantly trying to make others
happy won’t lead to self-happiness and not everyone is going to like you and
that’s okay.
I promised myself that when I moved to LA that I would try
new things. That I would take risks and put myself out there. That I would do
things that made me truly happy. So, there’s going to be some changes on my
blog. Recently I’ve gotten back to the writing used to do when I lived back
home with my parents except it’s changed. No longer am I writing about things
that could be or should be but instead I’m writing about what is. Whether its
advice pieces or simply a thought that pops into my head at midnight, this is
the kind of writing I want to do. But I still want to share my love with beauty
and fashion and also want to share my experiences breaking into the beauty
industry and living in LA. Instead of beauty/fashion content being on my blog, it’ll
be over on my YouTube channel.
I’ve wanted to start a YouTube channel for a couple years
now but never did because I didn’t know how people would react to me talking to
a camera for fun. I feel like it’s something that a lot of people don’t really
understand but frankly I don’t care about people opinions anymore. I believe there’s
a reason for everything and I think there’s a reason I didn’t start a channel
years ago. If I had I probably would have kept it a secret from my friends and
family and that’s not what I want this to be. I want to leave an impact on the
world no matter how small and maybe YouTube is a way for me to do that, maybe it’s
not. But I want to try.
I hope you guys check out my channel and there will be Tori
Talks on my blog with the occasional beauty post every now and then so don’t
forget about me (:
I encourage you all to do whatever makes you happy, despite
what people may say.
Be courageous. Be fearless. Be brave.
xx,
T
