Happy New Year people of the internet! This is a bit of a rambling post but bare with me, it's a little bit of everything and more so hopefully after I've got the rambling and catch up post out of the way I can go back to posting slightly more interesting things.
So, firstly, New Years Resolutions. I have kept my three New Years Resolutions from last year as I feel I lost sight of them somewhat along with the crazy journey that occurred, and although they are not extremely complex I am already struggling.
1.) Be more organised - I have always been a very disorganized person. My room looks something along the lines of a bomb explosion scene in a bad action movie and I have no sense of writing things down. It's a habit I have had throughout my whole life, much to my parents disdain. (To make matters more humorous, my father is ex navy and I'm sure you can imagine how much he loves disorganisation.) The amount of report cards I had throughout my entire school career with "BE MORE ORGANISED" in block capitals is more than I'd like to mention... so I want to change that, at least a tiny bit, if only to make life a little easier for myself.
2.) Drink more water - I will confess, I go through stages of being very health conscious and I succeed for a few months and as soon as I see a bit of progress fall back to old habits. I want to conquer this one though, as there are just way too many benefits of drinking more water to waste time consuming sugary drinks when I may as well eat blocks of sugar (which again, incidentally is something I still do. Never leave sugar cubes lying around as I will eat them. Shameful I know.)
3.) Be on time - You could argue this comes under being more organised, but er...I'm always late. I could blame it on a lot of things but I confess it is usually due to laziness or the transport system of Britain. Both are in need of desperate alteration.
So there we have my New Years resolutions, and I will maybe update you all on how they are going if that is not too tedious a topic in the future. In further news, I've recently received two very good marks back from my lecturers at university, and of course my motivation has sky rocketed due to this. Nothing spurs me on more than success, I'm not someone to be motivated by failure. Needless to say, one cannot succeed all the time but when I do, it makes me adamant to succeed again.
