I have a
love hate relationship with the whole New Years thing. I'm all for new starts
and fresh beginnings, though i hate how you have to be forced into thinking
over your life and evaluating it so closely. With this i find around new years
i focus on what i haven't achieved rather than what i have achieved and what i
have gained in a life. So this year i have tried to make very specific new
years resolutions... I wanna see what you all think.
A very wise
man in my life, my dad gave me an acronym which i can adapt to my new
resolutions to help me from always failing at them. GROW.
Goals
Reality
Opportunity
Will Power
So here goes
my news years resolutions:
1. Complete
my Degree in Journalism & Creative Writing (including the dissertation I
have started - eeek)
2. Lose
Weight (I know it is a standard but i have set myself goals) My best friend,
Meg, and I have a bet that I have until Valentines Day to fit into my favourite
Zara jeans which I haven't been able to fit into since my first year of uni...!
but ultimately i would like to lose about 2 stone by May and that would bring
me down to about a nice size 12.
3. I need to
save money massively... Well rather than have savings, i just don't want to
waste money on like getting food before or after work, i mean i could wait
until i get home.
4. In tail
with the above i need to keep all my receipts to see where my money is actually
going that and if any of my clothes become faulty and can actually take them
back rather than moan how they don't last. lol.
5. I have
this massive Senor Frog bottle from when i went to mexico last year (wow that
sounds odd) but yeah I want to fill the whole bottle up with change... I will
give you a monthly update on how that goes.
So hopefully
this is going to be my face for the whole of 2012... BIG SMILES
In the words
of my BFF Meg, "Start as you mean to go on"
What are
your new years reso?
