Hello sweeties! I firstly want to say a quick sorry for being so absent on my blog over the past couple of months. Life just got pretty hectic, to say the least! I am currently sitting my first year of NCEA as I am a year 11 student, so my homework has been insane and I have had no time for blogging. I have missed it so much, and I'm not saying I'll be back into weekly posts, but I'll try my best to continue posting when I can. I was also having a lot of problems with my photo editing apps and it became more of a chore than the creative outlet I wanted blogging to be. So in light of my return to Sweet As Mae, I'm going to strip it right back to basics today, and share 50 facts about me. For readers old or new, hopefully you can get to know me a bit better :)
