Hello lovely readers! Happy New Year to all of you! I hope you’ll be enjoying the evening with family and friends. I’m personally going to have a quiet night-in with my boyfriend. I just wanted to share my thoughts as 2015 comes to a close, and share my resolutions for 2016, corny or not! Like every year, 2015 was filled with ups and downs, but was a fantastic year overall. Here are of few of 2015’s highlights for me:
- I celebrated my 25th birthday this year!
- I became more financially responsible, saving more and working to pay off my debt.
- I stuck to my resolution to become healthier: I lost 18 lbs and kept it off!! I’m eating much more sensibly and exercising frequently.
- I grew spiritually this year and feel much closer to God. I’ve been working hard everyday to adjust my attitude, be thankful and positive instead of giving in to negativity.
- Finally, I’m proud of my blog/YouTube accomplishments: I’m proud of myself for being consistent and posting new content as often as I can. The quality of my content has also improved. It’s not perfect but I feel as though I’ve come a long way from when I first started in 2012!
I have big plans for 2016: I’m hoping to purchase my first home with my boyfriend Simon. If everything works out, I’ll update you either on here or on YouTube. Perhaps I’ll post a house tour video, or a home dΓ©cor haul! My first resolution for 2016 is to be more punctual. I’m pretty good at arriving on time for work, but I’m often late when meeting with friends. It’s a very rude habit so I’d like to work on arriving early!! My second resolution is to work on not gossiping. Gossiping is something I struggle with and it’s something that gets me into trouble. It is much wiser to keep my mouth shut!
What are your resolutions and plans for 2016? Thanks so much for stopping by and may God bless you! xo
