i found my balance

To New Beginnings !i found my balanceSnapchat 👻 mads.kennedy

Remember a couple of days ago I talked to you guys about, how my blog was looking messy ? I just found out there was no structure, and that’s because of my new way of blogging. I’ve set myself free from any obligations, so I could have fun again sharing whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted ! & the fun part, that totally came back to me 🙂

I love blogging more than ever now… but, I’m missing out on a lot since I don’t even set some time aside anymore, for that purpose only. It’s became completely random, and that also shows in my posts. I don’t think it reflects the real me; yes I’m kinda crazy and there’s no actual control over things in my life, I’m wild & rebel at heart so I let things happen without restrictions.

But I’m also an artist, a photographer and an aspiring filmmaker… I write stories every week, I stop and record videos, I edit pictures like they’re my fave memories, I like to help out and make a difference if given the possibility, I love experimenting with beauty routines and chat about style, and music of course, is at the center of my life ! So many things that make the real me.

That’s exactly how I want you to be able to see me, and that can happen if I find a balance to show you so. I’m writing this to say, that I finally did it 😀 I sat back, and thought about it and came up with a no-pressure plan, that’s going to change the mess into more creative and inspired content. I’m so excited about this, at last I’m going to do exactly what my life and dreams are about, and you’ll be the awesome audience to my journey.

why i don’t drive

The “Nobody walks in Los Angeles” Myth

Whenever I’m in Los Angeles especially, people will ask me “how come you don’t drive ?” — true, the age you can get your driver’s license there is 16′ so I should have gotten mine long ago… true also, getting a car is super easy in a place like that, since it’s totally dominated by the car industry with like, big-ass highways cutting the city all over.

So, I definitively don’t have any excuses for not driving in L.A. I guess ?

Thing is, I’m not into driving. At all. I never actually wanted a driver’s license, I didn’t see the point to it in my life because most of the time I either take public transportation, or have someone driving me where I need to be. Never once I felt the need for having a car of my own, or a day where I said to myself “oh man, if only I could drive myself” because I’m used to the way I currently, and always have, travelled.

But, there’s like actual 3 reasons why I did not go through it;

  1. I’m kind of a rebellious person. Seeing almost everyone driving in L.A. didn’t make me want to do the same; just because everyone does it, doesn’t mean I will, and that it’s good to follow society’s pre-constructed ideals.
  2. It’s so not eco-friendly ! Public transportation is not as practical for sure, but even an Uber pool is better than driving your car around with all the gas that’s emitted in the atmosphere & whatever.
  3. I’m the laziest human being on the planet, taking the time to study and then pass the test is one thing, but having to drive knowing how clumsy I am ? No thanks, I feel more secure sleeping in the backseat while someone else is in charge of that.

That’s it, now you know why I don’t care about driving on my own. & Does L.A. really need another car on the street (aka. mine, abstractly speaking) being already overcrowded with them ? Heck, no. Also, a monthly tap card compared to all the expenses around owning a car is a total joke. I just find that annoying, bills and stuff, it’s unnecessary responsibilities and I avoid that as much as possible. Having a car is a great comfort, but I’d rather live my eco-friendly lifestyle.

Snapchat update

~ Madison Kennedy

Last week I made it available on my Snapchat for you guys to chat with me, or even send me snaps if you wanted… I thought it would be a cool experience so that I could meet some of you & get to know you better. EXCEPT it wasn’t all that nice. I mean, the fact that I had to block some users because they were overly bothering — even after asking a couple of times to “please, stop” which obviously was not understood.

After some point it became harassment. This is absolutely not why I opened up the chat to my followers, and although I could basically block everyone who is behaving that way, it’s still a fastidious effort since I’d have to open the chats or snaps and check it for myself… which I don’t want to do anymore. I have zero interest in finding out whatever obnoxious thing has been sent to me.

So unfortunately, my Snapchat chat is private again. What does that mean ? well that after only a week, I don’t want to deal with offensive individuals any longer. Just want to have fun and talk with my friends, so the chat is reserved to them only. But everyone else can still check out my snaps, since they are public in My Story. I met this week some of you that were really cool, and I loved our talks, so thanks for chatting, but this is my final decision. Wish you all a great day ! xoxox

my blog is SUPER messy

I have no idea where I’m going…my blog is SUPER messy© Photography by Madison Kennedy

I am back from my extended weekend trip to Belgrade with my sister Dakota 🙂 It was so much fun ! OMG guys, I’ve got so many things to share & really can’t wait to edit it all and post it on The Blog.

But I just realized something… although I love the way I’m blogging nowadays (since I’ve relaunched my blog) which gives me a lot more freedom, and time to experiment and create things; it has become kinda messy.

The perks is I don’t feel like not blogging, because it’s not something I have to do anymore, it has become plain fun and a real hobby, which makes me come back to it more often than during the big break I put it through & when I wondered should I keep it up ? I don’t ask myself those questions now, I love blogging more than ever !

I guess though, I definitively want a little bit of consistency. Sure it’s nice having fun and all, but I totally get lost in my daily life doing whatever because of that. & then I just simply forget on those stuff I enjoy doing and making, because I don’t have a reminder since my schedule has become completely open to anything & it can be nothing at the same time.

That’s what’s not cool. That’s why it’s SUPER messy ! I’m gonna fix that though, it won’t be a pressure on me since it’s a change I decided on, for the best. It’s actually probably gonna be really good, I’m gonna be able to think, work & publish everything I’m into, and not have another week go by and feel like I missed out on something important.

So, stay tuned for what’s coming ! xoxox

hello 😄☀️😘
