Err, I don’t want to do this, and I’m about the least likely person to EVER do this – being devoted to my blog like it’s my baby or whatever – but I, um, need to take a break?
I have mocks starting on the 11th and I NEED to revise. I don’t know if not blogging’s a drastic measure, and I’l probably break halfway through and rage about how shit exams are, but I think I NEED this. I’m not sure though.
What it means is NO posting from now until… The 20th? Oh GOD I CAN’T DO THAT. Maybe I’ll post some things BEFORE the 11th, but NOTHING after that. No way. Maybe at the weekends – ELM STOP!!!!!
The point is, I’m TRYING to cut down on blogging for now. I’m sorry, it’s just I don’t know what to do because I haven’t been studying as much. I might delete the app off my phone to make sure I’m not tempted to use it. God, I feel crap for doing this, but I know it’s a good thing to do?
This means I won’t be doing the following things much, or at ALL, until about the 20th:
Reading posts
Commenting on posts
Replying to comments (not sure on that one)
POSTING
Doing ANY awards whatsoever
Talking to many bloggers
In regards to that last one, I’m probably going to fail. You need me, I’m here. I just might be even WORSE at replying than usual.
So again, I’m sorry. I just need to put my head down and STUDY LIKE HELL, not that that’ll do much good, because my willpower is shot to hell.
If something bad happens, PLEASE let me know. I’m not distancing myself ENTIRELY.
From Elm π
Don’t worry about us, Elm! We’ll always be here, but for now, your exams come first – even if it means having to stop blogging for a while (aahh but it’s such a scary thought okay moving on). It’s okay if you take a break π
Most of all, GOOD LUCK!!! I know you’ll do amazingly XD
Thanks so much, Emily! π
No problem π
Don’t worry elm ! Like I have said to you before you need to look after yourself first ! If that means not using you blog for awhile well then that’s okay. Just remember we are all here for you when you need us. Good luck with the exams
Ohh you’re so amazing! Thank you! π
It’s no problem at all
Good luck and we’ll all be waiting for you!
Thanks so much! π
π
It’s ok! π We all completely understand! Take the time you need and everyone will still be here when you return!!!
Awww I’m so glad of that! π
All cool, Elm. Your exams should definitely come first, so take your time with revising and all that! Good luck with your exams! You got this, remember that. π
Thanks, I’ll need it haha! π
We’ll wait for you! β€
Thanks so much!
Elm! We love you and are perfectly fine with you taking a break! When you return, we will all be here readily waiting! This is probably just me (100% American π ), but what are mocks?
Aww Ally, thank you! π And mocks are like fake exams, to see how you might do in the real ones.
Oh ok. Thanks π
I shall look forward to your return! β€
Yay, and I’ll try to read as many of your posts as possible!
T.. tt.. tTwa Two WEEKS?!
But how will I survive?!
I’ll make it through (barely), but meanwhile just know that you’re making the right decision and I admire your courage (I initially wrote the slang term used to express courage but upon reflexion it sounded way too graphic).
You need this time to study, and we’d be selfish to take that away from you. I know that you’ll do your best and come back here on the 20th with awesome news. Good luck!
AHHHH I hope so! π Thanks for the encouragement, you awesome person!
Least I can say, qwen
I ARRRRGHHHH!!!
You gave me false hopes of a new post. Oh well π¦
ALSO OMG DO YOU REALIZE THAT ONCE YOU COME BACK YOU’LL HAVE REACHED 1,000 FOLLOWERS?! WHAT
I WILL NOT HAVE YOU SILLY BOY!
HAHAHAHAHA LET’S BET
Good luck with all that!
Thanks – I might need it! π
It’s completely okay, we understand that you need to come away from blogging (it is definitely my main cause of distraction oops) GOOD LUCK IN YOUR MOCKS π
Thanks, I may need it hehe! π
GOOD LUCK! I can leave rude comments on all your posts telling you to get back to work if you want? (Nah, that’s too mean)
I’ve just started my mocks today so I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL feel free to rant about them endlessly with me! Good luck, but remember they don’t actually matter and anyway, you don’t want to waste all your good marks on the mocks π (that’s my excuse,anyway!)
HEHEHEHE EXACTLY, and thank you so much! π Argh it’s scary though.
I have physics tomorrow and I had the rather unfortunate discovery that I can remember very little of the last two years. I had a mini meltdown and my mum brought me emergency tea and I read through my notes so I *think* I’m feeling a little more confident now…exams suck!
THEY DO! I hope you’re okay. My first one’s RE, turns out it’s on the 12th
GOOD LUCK!!!
THANK YOU!!!
Hey, that’s okay – we’ll live, honestly. You do whatever you need – and the 20th is only a couple o’ weeks away anyway. Just focus on those exams, and power through. Good luck! X
Thanks! π I’ll do my best.
I understand π Good luck!!
Thanks so much! π
Hey, I nominated you for the One Lovely Blog Award! I understand you’re going on hiatus though π
Thanks, anyway! π

Thanks so much! Xx π

Taking a break is COMPLETELY okay! We’ll all be waiting for you π Good luck! β€

It’s alright Elm! I’ve actually got exams right now so I know what you’re going through π
Aww thanks, and good luck to you too!
Don’t worry, a lot of people are taking a break at this time. π
Hehe, glad I’m not the only one!

It’s totally understandable for you to do this, don’t even worry! I wish you the best of luck with your exams, you’ll be greeted with warm welcomes when you return to your blog π
Thanks so much! π
Elm, don’t stress to much! It’s fine! Take the time you need to study because that’s what’s really important at the moment! We’ll be here when you get back, don’t worry! Good luck, I’ll definitely miss you!
And I’ll miss you too! Thanks! π
Hey, I nominated you for the Sunshine blogger award! β x
Aww thank you so so much! π
No problem I should thank you for being such an inspirational and lovely person! π
Aww, that means so much! π
No problem its just the truth! π
Never guilt yourself for taking a break, it’s something I still struggle with, but everyone deserves a break from things at certain points. Good luck with school! Take it day by day and remember–you are worth more than a score
EXACTLY! Thank you so so much! π
aww, good luck! you’re gonna do great, i bet. π
also, i know you’re taking a break, but just nominated you for the dragon’s royalty award. you don’t have to do it though, i know you’re busy (and you’ve probably already done it). π https://myeuphoricmadness.wordpress.com/2016/01/05/the-dragons-royalty-award/
STILL, the fact that you’d nominate me for it is amazing! π Thank you!
I REALLY hope so! π Thanks so much!
Good luck with those exams!! Much love & conquer them elmβ€οΈβ€οΈ
I hope I’ll be able to – thanks! π
By all means take a break if you need one. School is way more important than your blog right now. It’ll be hard but Liss and I believe in you!
-Dani β€ π
I’m so glad β thank you so much! π
Good luck! I’m sure you’ll do great on the exams. Can’t wait till your next post, I always look forward to reading your posts hehe. It’s COMPLETELY ok to take a break for awhile and focus on your priorities so please don’t stress about not being able to blog!
Aww Reine, thank you so much! :I just OVERLY stress, you know. π
