WELCOME!

WELCOME, YOU BEAUTIFUL READERS!!!

I just wanted to do a short post to welcome you all and to sort of introduce myself :)

My name is Jodie, I am 19 years old and I am from the UK. I have been blogging for the past couple of years on a different blog but I wanted to start a new one so I could start fresh :) 

This blog will probably be pretty much similar to my other blog. It will include some beauty posts, some music posts, some lifestyle posts, some personal posts, some favourites posts....and probably some other type of posts that I can't currently think of ;) (I swear that I am an organised person)

I will also be posting things that, I would like to think, might help some of you :) Especially on mental health as my anxiety has pretty much taken over my life so I would like to be open about it on my blog. 

Me^^^^^^

Hopefully I will be more consistent with this blog unlike my other one (bare with me...I can do it).

I also want to warn you all that I am a little bit of a fangirl (little bit? okay, I fangirl a lot) so just keep that in mind ;) I will try not to be annoying about it...but I am not making promises because I do live the fangirl life (adds smiling face with sunglasses emoji) (Also, I did not just search what that emoji was called...okay I did).

Anyway, once again...welcome to my blog and hopefully you enjoy reading it :) Don't be afraid to leave comments...even if you just want to say hi...I promise you that I am friendly (I would say *adds smirk emoji* but I think that's a little bit creepy...so have a smiley face instead) :) x

NEW YEAR, NEW BLOG!

I would start this off by saying something like 'I thought I would give blogging a try' but I have actually been blogging for the past couple of years...so obviously I can't really say that.  My blog was pretty much filled with random things like beauty, music favourites, monthly favourites, reviews, personal things, etc. But I have been thinking a lot recently about that blog. I wasn't blogging consistently and I just couldn't find the motivation to blog anything. I had also kept that blog pretty much a secret from people I personally know. I even had a separate Twitter, Instagram and Tumblr for it.

When I first started the blog, I wasn't expecting big things and I just wanted to have it as a hobby. I don't have many readers on that blog but that didn't bother me as I enjoyed blogging.

During 2014, I was really into blogging and I would be posting nearly every week. Towards the end of 2014, I was diagnosed with anxiety and finding motivation to blog was something I found really difficult. The passion I had for blogging just disappeared. During 2015, I struggled when it came to blogging because I just never knew what to post about and I lost confidence with it.

Now it's 2016 and I have come to the decision that I would love to get back into blogging again (well I've been thinking about it these past couple of months). 2016 is the year that I really want to start sorting my life out and I want to become a better person. That's why I have decided to create this new blog instead of using my old one. My old blog is like my baby and I will miss it a lot but I wanted to start fresh :) I'm also pretty nervous about this because I will be posting this on my personal twitter instead of hiding away my blog like I did with my old one. I don't want to feel scared about sharing this blog...especially with people that I personally know. I want to feel confident about it and I want to push myself out of my comfort zone.

So to end this post, I would like to say welcome to my blog and I hope you like it :) x
