Earlier this year I made a list of things I was going to do throughout the year to make me a 'better person'.
Let's just say I have well and truly FAILED!!! I have only completed a toddlers handful and the main reason why is because I still don't know which career I want to pursue in life.
Here is the list from last year and I am adding the changes for this year!
On my first post I said I would do a post about resolutions. I make them every year and fail to succeed but this year I am determined to make them happen.
- Get A Job - Done and Done! Now I have my foot in the career door I need to figure out what I actually want to do.
- Finish Masters Application Form - HUGE FAIL! I have changed my mind a million times about the career path I wish to take and Landscape Architecture is no longer on that list (unfortunately).
- Get accepted on to Landscape Architecture Masters course - Didn't even apply! Naughty Abi!
- Get a placement in a Landscape Architecture Firm part time - I did actually manage to get some work experience but working two jobs is definitely not for me and the latter unfortunately had to be dropped.
- Take a class - MAHUSIVE FAIL! I am going to do this I just need to plan my time a bit better.
- Get fit - ANOTHER FAIL! I would say that I am on my feet all day at work though so maybe a slight win? No?
- Be nicer to people - I really don't think this is ever going to happen. Working in retail prevents this from happening.
- Save for a holiday - Maybe this year....
- Go on holiday - Again, maybe this year....
- Get better at keeping in touch with people-I really tried with this one but I am either always working or sleeping but catching up with old friends is a must this year.
Start a blog - Well this one is pretty much done so I shall cross it off my list.
I also have a few more to add so here it goes;
- Post regularly on my blog - I am going to designate my days off to making my blog the best it can be
Eat less cake - Who am I kidding? This will never happen!- Spend more time with my family - I already do but I want to see family that I don't get to see very often.
- Take better care of myself - This year I have been ill more times than I can count so I am going to try and eat my 5 a day and drink way more water than I do.
- Spend less and Save more - I am going to start doing a monthly budget series. I have more than enough of everything so I really should start saving.
- Decide on a career choice - I am only 24 but I really do think it's time I thought hard about what I want to do.
- And finally - Stay Happy! I am generally quite a happy person and try not to dwell on things too much, hopefully I won't annoy anyone too much!
Wow! That was a long post! What are your resolutions for the new year? Please do share!
