Time for the 2021 review! I finally made it to the end of 2021. The year was more rough than 2020. I quit my teaching job, decided to homeschool my children and there were so many deaths in the family that I probably spend most of the year in an unrealized depression. I was hoping I would spend more time blogging during the year, but it just didn’t happen. I watched several dramas, but they were used as a form of escapism. For me to actually blog about would require some reality. I just couldn’t do it.
Although I tried…I only had written about two dramas! At the beginning of the year, I tried to write about the Korean drama Run on as the episodes air. This is difficult and definitely requires skill. I respect people who can stay dedicated to that method of writing. I ended up not finishing–probably because of life. Then I tried to expand on dramas by writing about an American drama, Never Have I Ever. I never finished that either. I have so many great ideas when I want to write about a topic, but putting them into play is the difficult part and is I struggle with. I plan to do better this year. I say that every year and then seem to do worst. But this year I’m more hopeful.
Without further ado, let’s take a peek inside and review this year in at Metta Cultura. Sadly in 2021, I had written only 6 articles (half the amount I had written in 2020). Like I said above, I have a lot of ideas, so there’s 14 articles sitting in my drafts. Most likely I’ll backdate them to the time I originally wanted to post them.
Despite abandonment, my blog almost had the same amount of visitors as it did in 2020. In 2020, I rounded the views to 24,000. This year I had that many views as well. The difference was 153 views with the similar amount of visitors, 18,000. Thank you for those who stopped by and I’m grateful for my returning readers!
Here are the most read articles of 2021:
