Goodbye 2017

So, this is the last post of this year and I don't know where to start.

Firstly, thank you. All of you. Thank you for reading, for DM'ing me, for encouraging me. I know I've said this a million times but I honestly never thought I was good at writing. To be brutally honest I've always described myself as not articulate because of my stammer and I guess just lack of self confidence in general. But if you guys keep reading either I'm ok at this writing thing or I'm so bad you guys keep coming back to laugh. Either way I'm excelling at one end of the spectrum.

Anyway, forget the mushy stuff now let's focus on the new year. As you know JadeEgemonye.Com is enroute and I asked you guys to tell me what you think I could do to improve. My first mistake was only doing the poll was one day as many of you DM'd me saying it had closed by the time you went to vote, so for my next poll I left it for longer. But anyway the results as in. Starting from Tuesday 2nd of January I'll be posting once a week at 8pm. Also on my new blog I'll only be posting my top 10 posts from this blog. These aren't my personal top 10 favourites but instead the ones that have the most reads. There's a twitter poll going on that ends tomorrow so click here to vote whether you want to see the list of the top ten before the blog launches or if you want to be surprised.

Also my new mood for 2018 is back to this being a slyly selfish blog but in a new way. So, when I started this blog it was for me, I wrote about my feelings and my life. Completely unfiltered without any regard for what the reader thought or wanted to read. Then as people started reading I began writing for them and it wasn't as authentic (obviously excluding the very frequent mental breakdowns). Then after learning how to pose and take pictures I thought I could finally be a fashion blogger since that's what I love. But when I read fashion blogs I can't imagine writing about how to style over the knee boots (fyi they're a fashion staple). So new plan.

Since I'll only be writing once a week I'm going to keep it to life updates/challenges. Similar to the posing challenge I set myself and the uni fashion one I set myself. Basically this new blog will just be a log of my self-improvement in every aspect of my life. From uni, to fashion, to my emotions. Then I'll keep all my fashion/travel stuff to my Instagram, so that I can still have an outlet for what I love.

Finally, 2017 was probably one of the worst years of my life across the board but the good thing about hitting rock bottom is that the only way is up (I hope).

So wish me luck!
