RE: 2015 New Year Resolutions

I feel like i always say this but... I AM BACKKKKK!

2015 has been such an eventful year, with my olevels, my graduation from secondary school and my prom. I feel like 2015 was one of the better years in my secondary school life as I learnt to be more accepting of others and open my heart more(?).

This post is basically a reply(sort of) to my 2015 resolutions:

1) LOSE WEIGHT
I actually did manage to lose some weight at the end of the year after olevels but i dont think it was that much of a significance:( Basically i gained close to 10kg from before olevels period to the end of olevels since im like a HUGE stress eater. At the end of the year i lost that 10kg that i gained + a little bit extra which im actually quite happy with. So to a healthier & lighter 2016 !!

2)BETTER MONEY MANAGEMENT
I am proud to say this, I DID STOP MY IMPULSIVE SHOPPING HABITS but thats just because i didnt have time to shop due to studying for o levels. But well a HAPPY BANK is a HAPPY VALERIE.

3)STUDYING
I would say it was a good 70% accomplished? I only started to study towards the end of the year since i only decided I had to get my shit together like really far back in the year. But even so I did marathon studying and even though I HIGHLY DISCOURAGE everyone from doing so, it did pay off. I got the results I wanted and not only that, I got into the school i wanted to get into + the course i really wanted! To anyone who do not believe that hard work do pay off, I am a living example. Seriously though, I did not believe it at first but i guess i was proven wrong.

4)ANGER MANAGEMENT
Nope it didnt happen. I was just too angry at everything and everyone. I shall try again this year.

5)BE GRATEFUL
I have no idea how do I measure if I started becoming more grateful for everything. But I am very sure that I was grateful of my friends and family that were there for me during the tough olevel period and also I DID stop complaining about materialistic things so I guess it was kind of a success?

So basically, my 2015 NY resolutions were like kind of accomplished? *pat on the back* At this note, I wish 2016 would be a even better year, meeting new people, making more memories and accomplishing more things.

XOXO,

2015 NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS

2014 is coming to an end in a few days and here comes 2015! In 2015, I will be sixteen. Not only that i will be taking my Olevels, so fast OMG! So on the last few days of 2014, I decided i will try to blog at least once a week from 2015 onwards. Regardless whether i have any audience/viewers/readers anot, I want this blog for myself. Where I can talk about what I feel, and in the future, I can look back and see what I did and all those stuff. So, for the 1st post of this blog, I decided to do a NEW YEAR RESOLUTION! Although , i don't think i have the determination to actually accomplish it but its worth trying, isn't it? Hence, this would be my new year resolutionsssss~

1) Lose weight

This has been on the top of my resolutions every year but somehow i don't have the determination to achieve it. My weight journey has always been a roller coaster ride. No matter how hard I try, it just ain't working out. But even so, its still better than not doing anything right? I feel that if i lose weight, i would probably feel happier when i go shopping and not get disappointed when i leave the fitting room knowing that i can wear the clothes i picked out. Also, this means that i would have a healthy diet and healthy lifestyle. Something i really really want to achieve this coming year. So 80% healthy diet and 20% exercise here I come!!!

2) Better money management

Say bye bye to impulsive buys and lack of money for the month, I AM GOING TO SAVE. I feel that I may be able to achieve this since I may be going to Korea after O's with Lin and in order to enjoy myself there, I would probably need money. And money won't be dropping from the sky right? So this means I need to save up, which also means no more shopping therapy.I don't think this would be easy but oh well, nothing is ever easy LOL. Another way of de-stressing gone:(

3)Studying

Since 2015 would be Olvel year for me, this means that I would need to really study hard to actually get to the Poly I want to go. Which also means, studying last minute or the month before won't help. I need to at least revise my subjects an hour a day not including the time I use to do my homework. I can't believe I am actually saying this but since i want something, i need to work for it.

4)Stop losing my temper so easily

I'm pretty sure I am known for being fierce and angry LOL. So in 2015, I am going to control my temper and not get so worked up so easily. Maybe then I would not feel so upset all the time and I probably will start feeling happy from the inside and do not need to turn to my ice cream and chocolate for help.

5) Grateful

This is also another one that is always on my list. I saw this quote thingy on tumblr and decided I was going to follow it:

"FEAR LESS, HOPE MORE;

EAT LESS, CHEW MORE;

WHINE LESS, BREATHE MORE;

TALK LESS, SAY MORE;

HATE LESS, LOVE MORE;

AND ALL GOOD THINGS ARE YOURS."

I don't need people telling me I whine too much cause' I am aware of it. I know i am fortunate but every time i see someone carrying a better bag than me, a better something than me, I whine. But i guess i just have to keep telling myself, "so what if they are better than me? At least I have everything i need and most of the time things I want to. What gives me the right to whine when I have food to eat, clothes to wear, opportunity to study and a place to live in?".

So yeah, i guess this is it. I actually kinda hope no one except myself sees this. But even if someone else sees this, i honestly don't really care.

XOXO,

Valeriehazel
