Hello 2014. What have you got in store for me!


Hopefully it goes something along the lines of this (yes here they are, the ever so optimistic NY’s resolutions):


01.     Say Yes. Literally. To everything that I can do, obviously there is restrictions. I worry too much, which results in me not doing things because I worry what may or may not happen somewhere down the line. I want to say yes to things out of my comfort zone and try harder to have new experiences and try new things, building on my confidence and social skills. This also relates to food. I want to try new foods and expand the minimal food pallet I currently have. Unfortunately I can’t live off takeaways and weetbix (yes, I have a “thing” with weetbix) my whole life.


02.     Meet new people. I really want, and NEED to meet new people. I’m going to make a point to try and be more friendly and open with people and also make more time to appreciate the people I already have in my life.


03.     Money, Money, Money! This is on my to-do list every god dam year. Last year my spending was a tad out of control, my wants were a little bit extravagant! So this year I am going to focus on budgeting and saving my money. This year I want to explore more and exploring (at times) is not cheap. Whether it be a roady down south, a long weekend up the coast or an overseas getaway I would like to be able to see more of what’s around me. Maybe even a car purchase is on the cards (along with finally getting around to sitting my full licence!).


04.     Keep positive, stay inspired. I believe, the most important thing is to have passion in what you do and do the stuff that you love and you’ve always wanted to do because without it, you’ll feel stuck and unfulfilled. Right now my career isn’t all that satisfying, therefore I need to focus on my hobbies. Read more books, exercise, create art, blog, small projects and attempt to use less technology (especially in the evenings, right before bed!).


05.     Move overseas. Yes. I need a change! I have been living in Wellington for roughly 7 years now. I love Wellington but I think it’s time to spread my wings and pursuit a better lifestyle and more coin, cha-ching! I’m not sure exactly where I will move too but I am completely head over heels in love with both Sydney and L.A. I also want to make over my career with one that fulfils my passion; design, fashion, fitness, music, art, travel. I think I’m a fairly good writer and I would love to pursue a career in editing. Working for a well-known magazine is my ultimate! A shift overseas may just open those doors. Watch this space -
