1 Year of Blogging

Happy Birthday my dear little blog!

Can you all believe that it has been one year now since I started writing this blog? I can't! It is said that time flies when you are having fun. I guess I have been having a lot of fun.

I started off this blog exactly 1 year ago today. At first I wasn't posting as much because I had too many lectures and too much studying to do. I remember my 1st follower and how I had absolutely no views or comments in the start. I didn't loose hope and I just kept writing.

I remember thinking, I just want to share with the world what I know... help someone, inspire someone, meet someone new. Well, I have met so many wonderful people through this blog and I would like to say a huge thank you. Thank you to those of you who have been there from the start, thank you to those who joined this lovely ride later on and have stuck around to show their support. It means the world to me that you would take the time to read the things that I write. This ride wouldn't be the same without you.

I remember my 1st post...I was so green and had no idea what to write about, so I decided to introduce myself. Haha. Here it is.

As it has been one year, I though I would give some advice to those of you who have just started blogging. Not like I'm an expert in any way, but just my personal tiny tips.

- Don't give up! If you like blogging, do it for yourself. Don't let the fact that you have low views or that nobody is commenting discourage you.

- Don't let blogging be just about the followers. If people like your blog, they will join. I know it is hard work, but we do it as a hobby so just have fun.

- Don't concentrate on the number of followers on another blog.

- And most of all. Don't EVER doubt yourself.

- Do post what you find interesting.

- Do join in with the community on twitter. So many amazing ladies out there.

This blog has made a great impact on my life. It helped me make friends all over the world, it helped me grow, it helped me better understand myself and so much more.

I really look forward to the future. I have no idea how long I will blog... Probably all my life, haha! I also have no idea how things will turn out on this blog, but I am hoping for the best. Once again thank you to all my readers, you make me smile. And welcome to my new readers. I hope you have fun with me.

To show my appreciation to you, I will be hosting a giveaway really soon. Don't forget to come back and join in. It is going to be absolutely fabulous!

Take a piece of my cyber cake, grab a cuppa and read some of my old posts.

So now that I have a reason to go get a cake, I am off!

Have a fab day my darlings. I love every one of you.
