Making Moves

This past week on the #blogtrends weekly chat, we discussed setting and reaching goals for 2012.  You can find the transcript here if you missed the chat!  I have been contemplating over my own personal goals for this year, so you can imagine my confusion about my blog's goals.  After much introspection, it wasn't that I lacking drive, but it was that I was afraid to admit that I needed to make changes.  Right now, everything is nice and comfy.  It's like getting up when it's still dark and cold outside to go to the gym.  Can't I just sleep a little longer (metaphorically of course)?

While I love things as they are, I know that they can get better. I think I also need a little push and motivation to get myself going for the year.  Let's take a look at the future of Black + Blonde One!  I'm excited already! 

1. Hop on over to Wordpress. While Blogger is just grand, I would like my blog to have a more uniform look and to be more technologically driven.  I also think having Wordpress knowledge can be a marketed skill set for job opportunities in the future.

2.Get dirty! You've all seen me with all sorts of concoctions on my face, so I don't think I could get any dirtier that way.  By this, I mean to learn html and css.  Again, this is sort of a personal goal for career growth, but I would also like to be able to make blog tweaks at my convenience without a complete breakdown.

3. Give you what you want! While this blog is an outlet for me, I would also like it to be an outlet for you!  What did you like this year?  I covered controversial issues like bloggers and body issues.  I taught you new fashion terms with Fashion 101.  I did a few outfit posts.  And lately, I've been exploring more beauty DIY regimes.  And with that, I'll leave you with a little song for the day. Tell me what you want, what you really, really want!

PS-Ginger was always my favorite!
