The year is almost over. I can't believe how fast the months have passed. Too fast, if you'd ask me. I had made a list in January. It was kind of a to-do/resolutions list of things I wanted to achieve by the last day of December. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to cross everything off my list. But here is it, and my progress so far.
- Worry Less. Be More Positive. ✓
This is now a key and constant item on my resolution lists. I'm a worrier. I'm an over-thinker. I'm a pessimist. But I've been working on myself; surrounding myself with positive thoughts and I've been able to calm the qualms. I'm kind of proud of how far I've come.
- Spend wisely. Save Money. ✓
Not as much as I could have. I admit that I've splurged a little... but I'll still give myself a PASS. Frugal living FTW!
I finally have my learner's licence. And my lessons are starting next Saturday. This is therefore an eventual pass. Orange for now.
- Read at least a book per week. ✗
This is a total failure. As much as I love to read, I just haven't found anything that's really piqued my interest. I've started so many books but only finished about ten this year.
- Stop wasting time on the internet. ✓
Tumblr is the main reason why this was on the list. I've spent so many hours on this website. I even have a quite popular fandom blog with thousands of followers. I got a little caught up in my fandom life, for a little while tbh. Circumstances have forced me to stop using the website as much as I used to. Which is a really good thing. My internet usage has decreased by a lot.
- Eat more healthily. Less Junk Food. ✓
I'm definitely passing this. I've even started learning how to cook (I already knew how to cook, just not very well and not many things). But I did. Home cuisine. From scratch. Though, tbh, I only did that because I wanted to be able to cook for... somebody that I used to know.
I went back to Mauritius this year, after transiting through Malaysia. So, this is a pass. Yay! :)
Definitely not something I thought I could ever achieve. But believe it or not, the me who used to drink 3 to 4 cups of coffee a day, is long gone. I can now go days without a cup (with much struggle - but it's still doable). Who would have thought?
NOPE. Another failure. I'm starting to think that I'll end up alone, singing ALL BY MYSELF with an army of cats meowing along. I always end up meeting Mr Wrongs. Where's my Mr Right?
OK, this comes to the end of the list. I've already written my list of resolutions for next year. I'll post it sometime this month.
