Happy New Year lovelies!
I hope you all had a lovely NYE, whether you was out partying with friends and family or having a quiet night in. I'm currently feeling very sorry for myself, I have a pounding headache and in need of lots of food and sleep. So today's being spent wrapped up in my duvet watching lots of films,
2016 was definitely something, a roller coaster of emotions and some of my favourite memories created, whilst feeling hurt I didn't think was possible. This year made me realise how incredibly lucky I am to have an amazing group of friends and family who have stood by me whatever mood or situation the year had thrown at me, I'm a strong believer that everything happens for a reason, even if you don't know or understand that reason, and that it will make you a much stronger person. Always remember that, and don't let any boy be the reason your mascara smudges or highlight doesn't glow, a mistake I made. Here's my resolutions for the year ahead, I'm determined to make this my year and make myself a much happier person.
Work On My Blog
This year I'm so proud of how far my blog has come, and how much my following has grown. It put's a huge smile on my face knowing that a group of people enjoy my rambles and sassy ways. Definitely a massive highlight of my year, especially since it gave me the opportunity to make some amazing friends. This being said, this year I really need to kick myself up the butt and work at my photography. I want to create myself a space where I can take blog photos because it would make my life sooo much easier. I would also quite like to upload a lot more content and more regularly too.
Read More Books
I love reading but it's something I don't do often enough. I have so many books lying around waiting to be read, and whenever I do read it always reminds me of how much I love it. I just never make time for it for some silly reason. So in 2017, I vow to make time to read more instead of always scrolling through my twitter feed.
Positivity
I'm a very happy person if I'm honest. However, I spent far too much of last year isolating myself away from others crying or feeling like utter shit. Of course everyone has a right to sit and sob their heart out, every now and then. But this year I'm determined to not let stupid boys get to me in that way. If something's hurting me or getting to me so much that I can't even bring myself to go out then instead of dwelling on the situation, I'm going to act upon it. I've also learnt that I need to give myself more me time, and allow myself to have some down time every now and then.
Staying Organised
Staying organised is a skill I definitely lack and something I'm determined to work on. This would probably be made a lot easier if I was able to keep my bedroom tidy especially considering this is where I blog and do any work for school. I don't have a blog schedule because I know that I wouldn't be able to stick to it no matter how hard I try. Although it would be made a lot easier if I kept my work space tidy and didn't spend so long procrastinating every little task.
Skincare Routine
For as long as I can remember I've been unhappy with my skin, but I'm all for complaining about it and never do anything about it. Recently I have started to look after my skin a lot more but I've never had a proper skin care routine that I stick too. This year I want to actually give myself a skincare routine, remove my makeup properly and not with a wipe, and to moisturise! Why do I feel the need to always skip out on moisturiser, this year I will get clear skin. I'm already working on it.
