New Year For ThePerksOfMeg.






Hello everyone. As suggested by the date I am posting this and by the title, it is a new year. That doesn't mean I'm going to be a new me or this is going to be a new blog, it just means me and my blog have reached another year, which is so, so exciting. I must firstly apologise for not using my own images to start off the year however I've been poorly and haven't had a chance to take some new photos but I promise that this year there will only be odd occasions where I use images from the internet.

This year I am planning some really special things for me and my blog and let's not forget on the 15th January it will be The Perks Of Meg's 1st Blog Birthday, which of course excites me just a tad.

I have a few projects under way and I can't wait to share them with you all. 2015 is going to be a great year and although it's going to be hectic because it is my last year in school and although I'd like to forget about it, I can't. At times blogging will be tough because I will be up to my neck in coursework and deadlines and revision but fear not, I will still blog. It will just be a little less for that period of stressfulness.

I've been sat thinking about all the great posts I could have up on my blog and although I have lots of ideas, I still need to know what you as readers want. Now it might be 1am while I am writing this, oh yes it is. However I still have some New Year Resolutions to share with you all. How thrilling.

So here are my 5 New Year Resolutions: 

1. I want to get better with my photography for my blog, being the actual photo quality and editing.

2. I want to gain more confidence and feel at ease instead of stressed all the time over the silliest things.

3. I want to hopefully have reached 50,000 pageviews on my blog. That is such a lot, for me, personally. It would be a huge achievement and I feel that I can do this. If I can get  25,000 in my first year then I can get another 25,000 in my second year and that will be incredible. Anything over this, well is a bonus and I will be thrilled. Although it's not all about numbers and views etc, those pageviews at least tell me that someone is reading my blog and therefore I am very thankful indeed.

4. I want to be friends with even more bloggers and get involved in the community even more this year.

5. I want to have passed all my GCSE's at least at a C grade.

So as you can probably tell by my 5 resolutions they are more achievements and goals rather than something I am going to change however all of these things will impact my life in some way. I do find making new years resolutions up, very difficult. But, I have done it. Yay me.

So what are your new year resolutions and most importantly what would you like to see on The Perks Of Meg in 2015? Leave your suggestions in the comments please!
