#1 How can you moan about blogging being hard! All you do is take pictures and write a bit- what's hard about that? YEAH! DEFINITELY! YOU TRY TAKING PICTURES IN THE WINTER WITH NO LIGHT
#2 So you want to be the next Zoella ya? DEFINITELY NOT! I CAN'T BE DEALING WITH THAT KIND OF PRESSURE
#3 How much do you earn? A GOOD BLOGGER NEVER TELLS
#4 Can I have a shoutout on your blog? NO! SERIOUSLY WHO DO YOU THINK I AM

#12 isn't blogging a job for people who can't do anything else? NO! MANY BLOGGERS OFTEN BLOG ALONGSIDE THEIR FULL-TIME JOB

Let me know in the comments below!
Thank you for reading, as always x

ReplyDeleteHannah | Rated In Beauty
it's not! and I hate that people think it is x
DeleteI am only 6 months into blogging and I find it very hard but rewarding work. I don't do it for anyone else but me at the end of the day...I don't make any money at it nor do I expect to. I just enjoy the connections of having people try out my recipes and give me feedback. I love it when someone gives me advice when I ask for it. I think you do an amazing job with your blog and hope you know that. Try not to let these comments get to you, you are an amazing inspiration to people like me who are new to this whole thing. Have a wonderful day, Cheers, Michele
ReplyDeleteaw thank you very much! They don't really get to me that much just one of those things that goes alongside blogging I guess xx
DeleteI can relate to a lot of these things haha, especially number 1. Taking pictures during winter is such a struggle, my friend and me recently wanted to take pictures for a fashion post and instead we spent the entire day inside because it never stopped raining. Oh and blogging definitely isn't easy! x

DeleteLuckily I'm only a little blogger at the moment but everyone always assumes that I want to be a blogger just to be like Zoella when actually I'm doing it just because I love all things makeup and beauty! great post 😀 I did a really similar post to this actually on '15 Problems Every Makeup Lover Will Recognise'
ReplyDelete- http://www.roisinslatest.blogspot.co.uk/2016/01/15-problems-every-makeup-lover-will.html
aw, I hate it when people think you want to be like zoella, its so annoying x
DeleteTotally agree with everything!! especially 'Do you want to be the next Zoella', so frustrating!x
ReplyDeletetell me about it x
DeleteTotally agree with everything!! especially 'Do you want to be the next Zoella', so frustrating!x

DeleteHahah I love this post Nicole!! Literally I'd like to know where all these freebies are coming from? According to everyone else I must have loads!!! Also yeah totally easy not like I put a lot of work in, thanks for the boost Ahhaha!! Xxx
ReplyDeleteif I do get a good email and freebies its like once a month most of them are crap x
DeleteTotally agree! Have heard a few of these a few times!
ReplyDeleteI am glad you agree x
DeleteHahaha I could hear you like shouting each of your answers every time. This is definitely all so true, and shoutouts are the worst, like no I'm not giving you a shoutout. Also, I'll keep those freebies I worked hard on getting to myself thanks!
ReplyDeleteRobyn / Phases Of Robyn
haha! I sometimes feel like shouting at them! Why should I give away freebies that I worked so hard to get haha x
DeleteLol these are so true. I love how intense your responses are haha.
ReplyDeleteErin | http://beingerin.com

ReplyDeleteElaine - Some Of My Favourite Things
Thank you x

ReplyDeleteSophie | ssophiespot.blogspot.co.uk
Thank you lovely x
Delete"So you want to be the next Zoella"
ReplyDeleteNO, I want to be the next ME. *drops mic*
haha! Its so annoying x
DeleteI've been asked to set up a blog for people quite a few times, so many of these are so true!
ReplyDeletehttp://laurenslittleblogs.blogspot.co.uk/
Its so annoying like can't you see I so much work to be doing haha x
Delete"Blogging isn't a proper job" yep that's a classic haha
ReplyDeletewww.saarasofia.com
Makes me want to pull my hair out every time x
DeleteHaha my favourite (and when I say favourite I mean the one that makes me want to punch people, even if I am really good friends with them and love them to bits!) is: "You can blog about this!". Said whilst I spill a drink over my keyboard, or that time I won a flask in a raffle, or when I got a really bad rash on my face. Errrmagaaahd - just because I blog doesn't mean I tell the world everything!
ReplyDeleteLaura xx | Loved By Laura
aww! That must be so annoying! I have never experienced it but I can understand why it makes you want to punch people x
DeleteLove this post!
ReplyDelete#9 - My friends and family all day long! Like I've got new friends ok, get over it! Lol xx
Shannon | www.shannonkara.com
haha! Thank you x
DeleteThis post made me LOL, I loved it. No offence to people who don't blog but the ones who make comments like that really don't have a clue. I actually have a similar post going up tomorrow (great minds think alike).
ReplyDeleteNumber 3 and 6 are the ones that REALLY wind me up, they're such rude questions like... Get yo' head out my business haha!
Kathryn | Chapters of Kat
haha! Yes great minds do think alike! I will have to check out your post for sure x
DeleteThe biggest problem I have is getting 'computer eyes'. I think I need new glasses!
ReplyDeletehaha! I am so blind after spending all day every day oat my computer x
DeleteI love these posts of yours - I think it's mainly because they're so relatable! All of these are too true! Xxx
ReplyDeleteJasmine || http://www.blogsallbeautyy.blogspot.co.uk
aw thank you x
DeleteSo many, so true. Earnings is such a private thing. I didn't even tell people how much I made in my day to day job, why would I disclose from anywhere else?
ReplyDeleteAlthough, I'd actually love to meet ypu & other bloggers in person. That would be nice. :)
Xo,
Miki

aw! I would love to meet so many bloggers too x
DeleteOne of my best friends in college was messing with me and asking me if I bought my twitter and Instagram followers. I don't think blogging is too difficult. Most people could set up a blog, take pictures and write posts. The difficult thing about it is posting often and coming up with good ideas. If you're blogging alongside college or a full time job you definitely have it harder. One of the things I hate hearing on my blog which I do often is "Follow for follow?". It's annoying af.
ReplyDeleteEllen,
http://fishnetsxd.blogspot.ie
Yeah I think setting up a blog is pretty straight forward but growing one is a lot harder!! I feel your pain Ellen x
DeleteThis is a FAB post! And so True!!!!

DeleteHaha, these are so funny and they're all so annoying! Especially when people think blogging is easy...NO!

aw tell me about it x
DeleteThis are so true! So annoying! Im pretty sure most people think bloggers are millionaires overnight with thousands of followers.
ReplyDeleteKatielou99.blogspot.co.uk
yeah! we are definitely not x
DeleteI read this post when I first started blogging and I literally didn't understand it at all. Laughing now I've come back to it after a year and it's so freaking relatable haha. Love your blog always Nicole xx
