Another Milestone

A little something happened two days ago that I'm quite proud of. No, I didn't get some astounding grade on a test (well I did, in history on Monday, I got an A*).
Two days ago, I surpassed 5000 pageviews!!!
Shush Natasha, I'm in a caravan, there's no room for a party!


I'm pretty sure I was at 2000 when I was celebrating my blogiversary in January, so thank you so much, to my 15 followers, I can't believe I'm even at that number when I only had about 2 this time last year. Thank you to the person who searches 'penandkeyeve' on bing every few weeks, I'd love to know who you are! And just thank you to everyone, I love my little corner of the internet, and I hope you do too!
I have a couple of posts in the works at the minute, a new Hobbies and Obsessions, as well as a post about the service we held for Matthew at my primary school this week, so they should be up soon. Sorry for the lack of Writing Wednesdays, I've gotten into the habit of being lazy on Wednesday nights. Number 13 is written and scheduled, so it will go up, whether I've edited it or not. Might write another post about my hellish weekend last week, also known as a Duke of Edinburgh practice walk.

    It's really, really great to see that your blog has grown so wondrously, all due to the amount of hardwork you put into it! This is a really, really great accomplishment!
    I'm really, really happy for you, Eve! :D

    Much love,

    1. Thank you Archie!
      I can't believe how much Pen and Key has grown! Thank you!
      Stay amazing as always,

  2. Congratulations on 5000 pageviews!! (and on the A*, that's awesome too!) :D
    You're blog's changed so much since I followed it in summer last year, you should be so proud of your work (especially Writing Wednesdays, they are my favourites).
    I can't wait for new posts :) I saw a bit of you in the Duke of Edinburgh walk in Maya's video, I'd love to see it from your perspective too.
    Best wishes,
    Lucy <3

    1. Thank you! I'm quite happy with the A* too, tbh ;)
      I can't believe how much has changed with just a little bit of effort and regular posting, and I am proud! Writing Wednesdays are pretty good for me too, when inspiration strikes!
      You only saw a bit, because I wasn't even with Maya on the second day :)
      Love, Eve <3

  3. Congratulations Eve!
    Words fail to express how happy I am for you. I'm looking forward to your next post, I missed reading them. In fact, I checked your blog whenever I signed in to make sure that I didn't get sidetracked. Imagine my happiness when I saw that you had! And that too, expressing such a great achievement. Trust me when I say this, you'll go a long way from here. There will come a day when having 5000 pageviews might seem like an irrelevant thing but I'll still be jumping up and down in joy for all that you've overcome.
    Keep posting,
    All the love,
    Mazha. ∞

    1. Thank you Mazha!
      I'm sorry, I've been busy (read: lazy), and completely inspiration-less, but it has returned! In the last day, I've gotten more than 80 pageviews, which I can't believe, so I can't even guess how close the next milestone is, but I also can't wait! I think I'll be jumping with you :)
      I'll try,
      Love,
      Eve <3

    2. You're welcome, Eve.
      I get it. Seriously, I haven't posted something normal in, like, a decade. Okay, a month. I got so caught up with school- or at least tried to catch up, what with it being all boring and stuff- and other stuff that I actually turned my back on the blog. Getting 80 pageviews in one day is so awesome! And I'm glad to know that you will, people might look at me weirdly when they see an emotionally unstable weirdo jumping up and down in the middle of something. Oh, well.
      I wish you the very best,
      All the love,
      Mazha. ∞

    3. I don't even know what I'd describe as 'normal' blogging. We can bounce around maniacally together!
      And to you,
      Love,
      Eve <3

    4. I don't know either. Like, normalness (if that's a word), is a relative concept. It depends upon .. stuff. I don't know. I've got a few things going but I'm constantly wondering how others might react to it. Well, I gotta start being more serious, I guess.
      Thank you. :)
      Love,

    5. Depending how normal you feel, exactly! At the end of the day, Pen and Key is for me to vent, it's nice to hear people agree or understand, but if they don't read, I'm not that bothered! Be as ridiculous as you like, you only get one life :)
      Love,
      Eve <3

    6. That changed my perspective on a lot of things. Thanks, seriously. The thing with me is, I don't usually get that much support. The people I know are not against it but that's all. It's quite sill, I know. Actually, I don't. I don't know.
      Anyway, thanks. You were the first person ever to subscribe to my blog and that's a huge thing. Thanks a million. :)
      Love,
      Mazha. ∞

    7. I find it's the people who follow me who offer the most support, you're all always so happy with whatever I write. Silly or not, it's whatever you want to do. I'm glad to mean something like that to you; now I have a bit of experience, I want to help out starters as much as I can!
      Love,
      Eve <3

    8. There are a few people who sends feedback and likes the blog and stuff, like, five people, at most. When I started this blog, I had no idea when it came down to, like, how to go on etc. When I saw that I had one subscriber, I had something to go forth on. And that's one of the reasons why I'm like, forever indebted to you or something.
      It's a great thing that you're doing. Not just because you helped me but in, yeah, the big picture or something.
      Love,
      Mazha.
