The End of My Bloggin' New Year Challenge!

I Did It! 

I can't believe I made it to the end of this challenge! At first it was really easy to post everyday and I had tons of ideas of posts to write, but then I hit quite the roadblock and didn't really feel like I was producing quality posts. It started feeling so forced and tedious to write a post every day, especially since they don't really revolve around a specific theme. Most bloggers have a very specific type of posts that they write and they stick with that, such as fashion bloggers, food bloggers, travel bloggers, etc. The main purpose for my blog is to keep my friends and family updated on my life. The problem with those types of blog posts is that they aren't something that have to be written daily or even weekly honestly. I do like to post more than once a week, so I have to come up with stories to tell or talk about things that are only really like one time posts. I love that you guys got to learn more about me from my posts over the last month and that I got to share my stories with you. As for the future of my blog, I am 100% NOT going to be posting every single day. Like I said earlier, it feels too forced and that is not what I want from my blog. I want to post quality material and have my readers look forward to my posts. I'm going to shoot for posting two to three times a week, depending on how busy I am for each particular week. My posts will go back to mostly life update posts, but I will definitely continue writing story posts and themed posts from the Pinterest blog topics list I found and the little book of topics my mom got me. I am going to challenge myself for the month of February with a different type of challenge. I am challenging myself to dress well/cute every day because I just feel more confident and ready to take on each day. I'm going to have someone take a picture of my outfit every day and then at the end of the week, I will post a sort of look book of my outfits for the week. This is mainly for my week-day outfits so I can feel on top of the game and ready to take on the world. So, be looking forward to Saturdays in February when I post my outfits of the week. If any of you have suggestions of posts that you want me to write about, things you want to know about me, or any types of stories you want me to tell, please let me know! I love to have suggestions because it lets me know what you guys will be interested in reading! Thank you all so much for your support. I truly love writing these blog posts and it makes my heart so full that I have people who continue to read my posts every time I write them. You guys are the best and I love you all! ~Em
