Sept 27, 2013 - With an itty-bitty book blogging idea and just my love for books and expressing my feelings as my armor, I clicked blogger.com and created a book blog. I felt like I entered a different world and totally felt out of place during my first months. But, hey, it got better eventually and now I am here typing my 1st anniversary post! ♥ Sadly, this post is not only for my blogversary but also my bid of mini-goodbye (let's save that later.)
Who would've thought that this blog would last for a year? I am a blogger since 15 but book blogging was something very different and scary for me at first. So when people started commenting on my blog - I TOTALLY FREAKED OUT. Questions like: IS THERE A BOOK BLOGGER HANDBOOK? WHAT ARE THE GOLDEN RULES IN BOOK BLOGGING? WHAT DO I DO NOW?? surfaced inside my head for the first 6 months! But as I told a while ago, it got better and so much fun!!
Thank you Stacie, Aimee, Val, Chiara, Mitchii, Becky, Emily, Cait, Lola, Rachel, Dre, Missie, Laura, Zoe, Naban, Olgia, Hazel aaaand to everyone (AS IN TO EVERYONE!!!) who've been on my blog reading or commenting! I am still in awe of this accomplishment of mine. I won't show stats, but I just want to tell everyone that THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH!! You guys are all awesome and wonderful. To those bloggers who nominated me for blog awards - THANK YOU!!! I haven't done anything about those, but I am truly grateful! ♥
The sad part is, I am typing this with a heavy heart. Unfortunately, I failed an exit exam in math and it is currently breaking my heart into pieces. It's depressing....so so so freaking heartbreaking for me. It sucks though, when my relatives start questioning my failure, "You're an engineering student but you failed a math exit exam?" I seriously don't know what will I say. I am a human, you know, it's not all the time that I'll succeed over everything, but I am going to be okay. I am going to be better; I am going to change for the better. I cried and cried already and that's enough tears, it's time to stand up and improve. I might not be all right entirely at the moment, but I know I'll feel better eventually. I am going to take another exit exam this coming term and I am going to be sure I am 101% prepared. I will do my very best and I won't disappoint my family and myself this time :D Excuse the dramatic part :'D I am not going to blog for the mean time until I feel like I can handle things in college + my other hobbies together. I won't be giving this up entirely because it became part of my soul already that is why I'll take a hiatus for the mean time (although I am already on a hiatus haha).
Let's all be happy & positive!
I can not hold a book giveaway right now, but I will be giving away Marie Lu books on November because.........I'll be attending Marie Lu's book signing here in the Philippines this NOVEMBER! *squeeee* *squeee some more!* *squeeeeeeeeeee* favorite author, hello!!!!!!
Again, everyone:
