2015

"Never look back, darling. It distracts from the now." Edna Mode, The Incredibles

Happy New Year, everyone! 2014 has definitely been a journey for me. I got accepted into FIDM, went back home to visit just once, had one of the best summers ever with a bunch of my friends in Vegas, and visited Disneyland one too many times. I'm grateful for everything and have no regrets. 

New year, same me, but with new goals. Yes, I'm that person who makes resolutions and falls off track by February, but here's to a new year and hopefully a better me anyway.

1. Drink more water & less coffee. I love my lattes but I need to substitute my cravings with 0 calorie water. 
2. Be punctual. I'm the worst person when it comes to being on time. That's a horrible habit that I need to break, especially in the work field. I never leave myself enough time to get ready, or I just underestimate how long I actually take to get up. 
3. Focus on my health. I just turned 23 (yikes to mid twenties). I have to buckle down and really take care of my body. I may not look overweight, but for my height I have a lot of extra chubs to get rid of. Living a healthier lifestyle for 2015 and on is a must. That means eating healthier and putting in time at the gym at least 4-5 times a week. 
4. Cook more often. I'm not the best in the kitchen, but when I am it's probably with instant easy meals to make. I want to learn how to make healthy yet delicious meals. 
5. Stop procrastinating. That's self explanatory. Being proactive especially when it comes to school work and projects is very important now that I bumped up my classes to 5 next quarter. 
6. Travel outside of the U.S. California and Hawaii are beautiful places to visit/explore, but I want to travel to places that's way out of my comfort zone. One country that I've had my eye on is  Scotland. Fingers crossed for a trip to Aberdeen, Scotland (to visit my bestfriend)  this year! 
7. Make more time family. I've never been a huge family oriented person, but the older  I get the more important family means to me. I don't need to spend every waking moment with them, or share every detail of my life with them, but just making that extra call or text out to my parents and siblings back home would be nice. 
8. Quality over quantity. I'm referring to fashion and not people, although it goes both ways. The more I learn about fashion the more I want to start investing in pieces that will last me a lifetime, rather than buying something extremely cheap, but having it fall apart with the first couple washes. Unfortunately, with quality comes cost...so this one will be a struggle. 

Wishing everyone a happy and healthy 2015!
