Last month is my blog anniversary - Happy 8th Year Anniversary dearest blog, it has been eight years of me in this blogging arena which, I never thought that I would stay that long, despite, having those ups and downs in this blogging world. So, thinking of sharing with you my struggle in this arena. Honestly, being a bloggers, doesn't mean we have all this fun and enjoyable day just to maintain our freaking blog, isn't it? I do sometimes, having this freak out moment, afraid that my blog were not achieve up to the par. I have to admit, it is hard but very pleasurable and I love all my readers. Thank you for being such an amazing person.
Anyway, here are my 3 Things I Struggle As A Blogger :
1. Writer's Block
Gosh! This is very substantially every one's struggle. To make sure your blog is update every week of every month are not the easiest things to do. Sometimes, I got so tense that I ignore my blog for the whole week without having this feeling to look at it, just because I'm having lack of idea to post a topic and having a super great content. Despite, having to face this struggle, it is a wonderful journey to keep on looking the best, amazing, beautiful topic/content to share with every one who visit my blog.
2. Grammar
From the beginning I start to venture in this blogging arena, I do write in english with mixed of malay words. That's in the past, only this year, I started to write fully in english without mixing with malay words, because this is the only way for me to improve my english writing. Honestly, grammar are my major problem! lol. I know, I learnt english since I was a kid but still having this struggle. I was ashamed of myself, whenever I read my post again, I saw those grammar mistakes even spelling sometimes, which I am so embarrassed but hey, I'm still learning. I really admire Erin's writing in her blog, it just amazing and I love to read her blog very much. Hopefully, I can improve my english writing especially grammar.
3. Time Management
Struggling in between to blog, to have a personal time, and job, were not as simple as I thought before. You know sometimes, after battling with the workload, all I want to do is going home and jump to bed and sleep, even in the weekend too. Sorry not sorry, because I love to sleep. Because of that, I ditch my blog for the whole week, just because. I guess I need to have a bullet journal to jot down topics that I want to share in my blog, hence, in that sense, it might be handy for me? I don't know, I need to try it first. Do you make a journal for your blog?
Blogging isn't always as easy as A-B-C, but what is life without challenge, don't you agree? In spite of the struggling I need to face every day to maintain this awesomeness blog of mine, blogging has always been a great ride with full of beautiful panorama, it is my happiness, always be.
What is your struggle as a Blogger? Mind to share with me?

It is, I couldn't agree more. I do have a lot of post to publish, honestly, but end up, it only sit in my draft, waiting for me to edit and publish them :(
Yeap, blogging is all worth it! I love blogging, totally in love with my this writing in blog because, you know, we get to make new friends, improve our writing skills and many more, it just worth it. :D
Well, I think I wanted to tried the editorial calendar, sounds simple and looks like more systematic. Thank you for sharing, Mili! :)
but I think I should slowly use English as my major language...but...whenever i start to write in English, my idea automatically lost!..hahahhaha so..it might take some time, but i will re-think again! BTW you're awesome!! and happy blogging!
I'' writing in BM and believe me, I also feel insecure about my grammar in BM. Bahasa memang failed tapi masih nak ada blog. Hehe.

I agree with all of you especially AinAthirah. That's why i didn't write in English at all. Grammar is like a piano to me. We hear by by ears.” You may have a look my blog and read a few of my entries:

Salam blogging.
but i really kind of give up on grammar already but sometime i do recheck for few times and get bothered enough to correct it. it is a complex relationship.
