I don't really know where to begin with this... Honestly, there's so much to say and I don't know where to start it off.

As of the 14th of June 2016, I can finally say, it's been a year since I first started my blog. Thus making this my 1 year anniversary for my blog. 

I believe, I've come a long way from when I first started this blog. The purpose of my blog was to share events around London because I loved travelling and with the addition of having a camera this helped me start my blog posts.

So let's rewind back in time?

My first blog was about MCM Expo 2015. Along with a friend I managed to go around the venue, enjoy snacks and food and even watch some League of Legends tournaments. Looking back at  my photos, even then my photography skills were quite limited. Back then I wasn't even too sure what kind of audience I was aiming my blog posts for... Whether to be formal or not? Casual or not?

Following on from my first post, I proceeded to blog about my experiences and eventually I even began promoting events throughout London. Some include the Eat Asia Night Market, back in November 2015. The event gave me an opportunity to have my own giveaway for my blog readers as well as experience a variety of foods at the night market. Something I personally enjoyed as a foodie myself!

As 2016 began, I think one of the biggest opportunities I managed to get was the HISTORY concert in February. Alongside promoting the event with promoters from France and Korea, I was also able to attend the event as Arpeggios Entertainment's own photographer. This gave me the opportunity to take photos of the concert with special access (I totally got a great view at the front!), take photos for the Meet & Greet and even work with HISTORY backstage. Furthermore, the next day I was even showing HISTORY around London with a friend - I'm sure there were quite a few people who wished to be in my place, right there and then aha!

This opportunity probably gave me one of the biggest boosts for my blog. My posts about HISTORY reached a total of over 2000 views which honestly it's such an achievement for me. I'm happy to even hear from people that they've read my blog but to know that I've reached probably over 2000 viewers all at once, worldwide, I was ecstatic!

And having a chance to meet idols who you've followed since their debut, that has to be one of the dreams that every fan wants in a lifetime - It doesn't mean I didn't stay professional whilst doing so. You can be a fan, but don't forget they are human beings too - And they were all lovely!

But since it's been a year, what am I planning to do for the future? 

Well I actually have a lot in store. It just so happens I'll be doing a bit of travelling this summer, and my final exam is actually tomorrow, funnily enough. So I'm trying to dedicate this summer to give my readers the opportunity to read more, hopefully posting 2 blog posts at least a week. I've also got a lot of blog posts to be catching up over these months as I've been so busy with studies I haven't had a chance to write them all up. 

As you guys know, this blog was originally dedicated to events but as it has been a year since I started this blog, I want to begin to expand my blog to feature other topics from fashion, to music and more. I've already started to begin to expand my blog as you can see from my posts about food places I've visited, recommended and reviewed! And I've also got some exciting opportunities ahead, which I hope to tell you guys later on - Don't want to spoil the fun now, right?!

Before I move onto my special 1 year anniversary giveaway, I want to just thank everyone. To everyone who walks up to me, talking to me about my blog in person, to those who have supported me and continue to support me, to all those who recognise my blog and enlighten me with their compliments. I just want to thank you. I am so grateful to hear such wonderful comments,and honestly I could cry right now just to know how much my blog has been read by people of the world.

If you haven't had a chance to read the reasons behind starting my blog, you can check out my about section on my blog below. It gives you guys a further insight to how I went about starting it.

Introducing my blog

But enough of these feels, it's time for me to reward you guys with an opportunity to win some prizes. I managed to get some assistance with LoveJojo who will be helping me out with today's giveaway! Thank you, LoveJojo, you're the best!

I managed to sort out a giveaway for 2 different prizes, meaning one lucky winner will be able to win both of these prizes!

The prizes up for grabs include:
- Kracie Popin' Cookin' DIY Candy Kit Painting Gummy Land
- Alpacasso "Tsum Tsum" Phone Screen Cleaner Cube Charm (White)




These gifts which I've chosen were handpicked by myself. Each of which have been picked for certain reasons. The popin' cookin kit has been something I've always enjoyed watching on YouTube. I love miniature designs and I love food so this is totally something which I had to include in this giveaway. And if you don't know already, I love TsumTsums, I currently have a collection of 5-6 TsumTsums at the moment varying in different sizes!

Thanks for entering if you have, and I hope to announce the winner by the 15th of July, so make sure to check back at this space for the winner! The winner will be contacted on the day and if there is no response within 24 hours, the winner will be redrawn. The giveaway will end on the 14th of July at 23:59 (GMT).

Thank you for reading, and I will hoping to be posting more frequently soon!
