No, I am not breaking up with you don’t worry lol! Isn’t it funny how every time someone says we need to talk we think they are going to break up with us. Anyway, what I wanted was to talk to you and address a few things regarding this blog and my life in general.
As many of you know I am a full time student and my classes are going to be starting quite soon. This is my fourth and last year of university so I plan on concentrating on it and making it my priority. Of course I will still continue to blog as regularly as possibly but I may not be as active as I have been the last few months as I has summer break.
The fourth year is also the toughest year and I will be quite busy with school work. This will mean that I may not have as much time to respond to every email and DM I get. I will try my best to respond to all of them however if I am most likely going to take 3-5 days to respond.
I would also like to ask that if you are planning to email or DM me about blogging advice could you please look through my blogging advice category first? A large number of the emails and DM’s I get are asking for blogging advice that I have already written extensive posts about. It would be a win-win because you would get an entire post or multiple posts with information that you were looking for- I would not be able to provide you this much information via email or social media. I did not mind responding to each DM/email with links to posts and categories before but I may not have the time to do that anymore. So before you email me please look through my blogging advice section.
Or use the search button to look for more specific posts. It’s located on the top right hand side if you are using a desktop and at the very bottom if you are using your phone.
If you still have questions and are not able to find any information on my blog, WordPress’s support site or Google than please feel free to reach out and I will try to help you the best I can. I am sure that this may be an anxiety inducing time for many with schools reopening, the pandemic, the political situation etc so if you ever want to talk to someone who has anxiety and understands how it feels please feel free to reach out and trust me I will respond no matter what.
I have also recently been getting a huge amount of spam comments and I just want to ask everyone leaving spam to please stop. I try to delete them as soon as possible but there is one huge problem this is causing for me. The notification bell only shows up to 100 notifications and I get way more than that. Due to these spam comments taking up my notification space I am losing actual comments. I don’t mind losing the ones on my blog as I can see those in my comments section but I can’t see the responses to comments I have left on other blogs and I lose those permanently. If you know how I can see those please let me know in the comments below. Also if I have ever not responded to a comment on your blog this is why.
The last thing I want to talk about is that for some reason when I comment through my phone the comment does not go through or gets stuck in spam. I know it’s not just me having this problem- the spam problem I mean not the comments not posting because that may just be me- so please check your spam regularly as you may be missing actual comments that are not spam. My blog also sometimes grows a mind of its own and unfollows blogs for no reason so in case I used to follow your blog and randomly unfollowed it please let me know and I will follow it again.
Thank you in advance for your understanding and I hope you stick with this blog and continue to support me even when I get a bit busier. I will of course try my very best to keep supporting other blogs as well and stay as active as possible.

Thank you for all the hard work you have done on this blog, Pooja! I totally understand your decision to pull back a bit and I applaud you for setting priorities. I wish you all the best with your studies.
Thank you so much- yes priorities are very necessary and I’m trying really hard to maintain a good balance with everything.
Yay! The last year! I wish you the best of luck, Pooja! I know you’re gunna rock it. Boooooo to all of the spam comments.
Aww thank you! Lol spam comments are SOOOO annoying!
No problem! ☺️
That “We need to talk” line always sounds so serious though and I always get nervous whenever I hear it from someone lol. Like its associated with shocking and bad news 😅
Lol same! I always feel like someone is going to tell me some really bad news.
Agree lol
Completely understandable. Your blogging advice posts are always greatly appreciated. Hope all goes well in your final degree year 🙂
Thank you so much for understanding!
Good luck with this upcoming school year! Senior year is def the hardest but usually quite fun – hope that you have a safe & fun year! 💜
Thank you so much!!
Good luck with your fourth year. I know both of mine were a lot of hard work which taught me a lot about myself.
I really appreciate the time you take yo respond, and I don’t know how you have the time to do it! Keep on keeping on being awesome! 😁
Thank you so much! I love responding because socialising is one of my favourite parts of blogging but unfortunately it may not always be possible for me to respond now.
There are certain phrases that I absolutely dread because they’re always followed with bad news. It also annoys me that people would use clichéd phrases when trying to be serious! 🤦♂️. Like the depersonalisation just makes it worse. Feels condescending to me! Anyway, lol. Ghosts of traumas past!
Yeah I feel like some phrases you just know what’s coming next so if you’re being serious don’t use them. Just say what you want to say without those phrases. Lol I definitely get it!
Yep! 😀
Love this!
Thank you!
