Exactly two years ago today on a sunny day at the beginning of summer, I decided to take the plunge and start a blog. It wasn't such a great leap as I'd been a contributor for a couple of Stardoll-related blogs before (oh the young innocent days of my youth), but this was going to be the first time I was completely in control of a blog, and would be able to choose the appearance and content. I'd been thinking about it for a while and was waiting til the beginning of the holidays before I committed to anything, but I think the thing that really pushed me to create this blog was having quite a few photos I'd taken during my two weeks of work experience that I wanted to share. You can see them here and here.

I'm really proud of what I've achieved with this blog since then, despite a few pretty significant breaks that I took due to schoolwork. I've met a lot of lovely people who have been so supportive of my efforts, and discovered a heap of really great blogs too. I've also learnt a lot, such as how to stay active on the internet and how to take decent photos. Since Christmas I've been a lot more regular with my posts and I joined Bloglovin, which has helped me amass another handful of followers. I never intended my blog to be about collecting vast numbers of views and followers, and I like that today it's still exactly what it was two years ago: a place for me to share my thoughts, opinions and favourite things.

Here's to another year of blogging!
