So, I've been wanting to work in wedding industry for a while - either as a florist or couturist - but been hesitating for a long time. I have no relevant skills (studied science and working in financial industry) and was too scared to take steps. Until now.
Not saying that I've opened up a florist or wedding boutique. I just decided to pursue floristry as a hobby to begin with. Attended a few flower courses - making bouquets, flower crowns etc - to learn the basics and today, I made my own bouquet for the first time all on my own. It was a lot more work than I thought - getting up early to go to flower market, preparing flowers (de-thorning etc) and designing the bouquet. But...
It. Was. So. Worth. It.
I am really happy with my effort today and would love to continue pursuing floristry (at least as a hobby at this point). I was so burnt out with life recently. I have no passion for my current role at work. Everyday has been boring routine. Precious weekend was spent in bed due to fatigue and stress, fueling laziness. I am loving this feeling of I can do something I enjoy for a change.
What about you guys? Have you been taking small steps to chase your dream and passion? Yes, I am feeling all warm and fuzzy at the moment lol
