Speaking of book hauls, I may have to go on a book buying ban in 2015 but...maybe not. A lot of good books are going to be published in 2015 and we, as book lovers, are well-known for not sticking to book-buying bans.
- I had my first interaction with an author!
- Good books (and glorious book covers!) lead to #bookselfies
I just noticed that it looks like I'm wearing the same shirt in three out of four pictures. I do own an adequate selection of clothes to choose from, promise! It's just that I have really comfy home-y clothes.
- I participated in my first #BoutofBooks readalong!
- New, gorgeous bookshelf in bedroom
- I received my first ARC
- Guest Posting over at Parajunkee, Andi's ABCs, and The Book Addict's Guide
- I completed my goal of reading 60 books in the Goodreads Reading Challenge!
So, in no particular order:
As every book lover out there, my first hope for 2015 is to read more books and try to keep up with my TBR pile, which I know is kind of impossible. But I want to read ALL THE BOOKS and feel ALL THE FEELS.
To further immerse myself in books, blogging, and writing, I'm hoping to take part in more bookish events such as Bout of Books and NaNoWriMo! Speaking of which, I'm making 2015 my first year of NaNoWriMo. I don't care how busy I'll be; I've put off writing for so long and this year I'm finally doing it! I've already bought a small notebook to jot down ideas and stuff and I'm really looking forward to filling it up!
Besides, one thing I've never maintained on this blog is to constantly come up with interesting ideas for posts. Really good ideas can pop up in my head on some days but not always do I know how to elaborate on them, so usually they stay as drafts. I'll try working on it, promise. I want this blog to be full of passion for books, and hopefully I can achieve that in 2015. Reviving my Tumblr and Pinterest accounts is a good start.
And lastly, I hope to draw again. I didn't have much time to draw since I started blogging and eventually I just stopped but now, looking back on my pencils and previous work, I want to feel the intensity of trying to get a drawing right again. That is one wonderful feeling.
