CHERRY(BOMB)

I don't know if you remember the epiphany I blogged about earlier this month, but realizing that I hated 90% of my clothes and needed to buy a whole new wardrobe definitely has something to do with the news bomb I am dropping today. All month I've been feeling the need for change (a caterpillar-turning-into-a-butterfly kind of change) and not just with my wardrobe either. Being the constant, over-thinker that I am, I stopped to ponder what blogging is doing to my life and if my blog even reflects who I am right now. And when you are an over-analyzer like me, the answer isn't always pleasant. Basically, I've decided that I AM TAKING A HIATUS! Sorry to yell at you over the internet but I need to get the point across. 

Blogging has definitely proved to be a fun, beneficial and even educational experience for me, and I owe a lot [of the opportunities I've had and cool people I've met] to it. However, due to the combination of my recent change in taste, fashion philosophy, homework load and grad stress, I feel a tiny bit TIED DOWN. I've been blogging for just over three years and by now, Cheap Thrills is as big of a part of my life as, say, a long-term boyfriend would be, if I happened to have one. We (ha) have had good days and bad days and spent an awful lot of time after school together (hehe), but now...I feel like my blog and I need some time apart so we can think about our future. Or find different hobbies or whatever. 

As the old break-up line goes: I need space. It's not you, it's me. We can still be friends I need to figure myself out. Despite my blogging hiatus, I will still be tweeting and tumblr-ing so if you miss me or my sass, fret not, because I will still be lurking, muahaha!

And I think I will leave it at that. Peace out everyone.
