Hey dolls,

I hope ye all had a fabulous Christmas. Sorry I have been MIA lately, just after exams I lacked any motivation for facing any form of writing, including blog posts. I have also been flat out working and pretty much going nowhere to do any outfit posts. However, I am heading back for my last semester now (cannot believe how fast it is going) and I am getting back into the swing of things. I wanted to write a post on my new year’s resolutions, I have read a couple of posts like this and I find some of them quite inspiring so I thought I would share mine If not to inspire others then, to inspire myself. I never can stick to resolutions; it is hard to get out of your comfort zone.

First off, I need to go for things more, I need to stop holding back from doing something. I am very lazy at times (most of the time actually) and if something requires effort on my part I more than likely will not do it. I want to be more open to everything. As Oscar Wilde once said, “To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people just exist, that is all.” Life passes you by in the blink of an eye, one is to enjoy every day because that is living. It is harder that it seems when you have work and college and you are just existing day after day trying to get through your next assignment, exam or whatever it may be. This year I am going t try and take whatever time I can to enjoy the little things in life and do something that terrifies me. No more will I stay in my comfort zone.

I NEED to be organised! Oh sweet baby Jesus I am the most unorganised person ever. From my room to my college work I need to get my life together. My room at the

moment looks like WWIII just hit. I cannot understand why or how it gets that way, one minute its clean then BOOM I find a lost child under a pile of clothes. I am sure some of you guys can relate to this. I also need to sort out my college work. I need to read so much stuff, but instead I prefer to leave it until it comes closer to the exams. After almost three years in college you would think that I would have learned. Around every exam period a common conversation had would be “how we will be better next semester”. Ha yeah good one, we never learn. However, I am not striving for the impossible, which would be to read all the books suggested on my reading list, no who would do that? Instead, I am going to read maybe four of the novels that way I am not goggling the summary of the novels when exam time rolls around again. Hopefully I can get a bit more organized and stop leaving everything last minute this year *fingers crossed*

Lastly, I want to look after myself more. Get up and go for a walk. Eat properly. I got sick recently were my body decided to reject all my piercings because I was not eating properly. It was not a fun experience, the doctor told me that our body is like a car if you do not but in the right fuel in, it will not run properly same goes for the body. I am very bad for eating properly so I am going to try to make a really effort in looking after my body more. I do hate exercise, but God loves a trier right?

Other aspirations for 2014:
·         Travel More
·         Move to a different city
·         Start working on goals to accomplice my career
·         Start yoga
·         Start taking more photos
·         To let go of anger
·         Drink less caffeine (I consume an unhealthy amount)

That is it for my 2014 resolutions. Here is hoping that I stick to them. I hope I was able to inspire you in some way and I promise I will not leave it as long next time until my next post.

Wishing you all the very best in 2014,

Emma x
