New Year

I know this is late and that January is almost over but YAY I have my new Chromebook finally so I can do some stuff!!

SO I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and New Year.

I learned a lot from New Year this year, about some people I know knew, like, literally on New Years.

It made me so sad for a while, but you know what?? I've been feeling this sad since this person came into my life so I've kinda just turned sad into angry, which probably isn't healthy, but it feels much better than feeling super shitty about myself.

SO yes, things are a little different. And it's good.

A lot of my friends are going through things with boy's at the minute, and obviously it all feels like life and death because we're at that horrible age where we feel like we should be getting on with things by now and being grown ups and starting to get serious, and believe me, I've been feeling that way the last 2 years myself but hearing them all upset and stressing about things and trying to make things work has really made me re think things. I loved someone, but I wasn't happy. When they were saying they loved me and meant it, it was just words. I know that now. I just don't get it, if you're this stressed over things so often, why are you doing it? It can't be good for you? and it can't be what's right for you? I understand relationships go through patches, of course they do, but you have to look at it realistically if its every week or two?

I know some of them just don't want to be alone after being with someone for so long but I'd rather be alone than treated like a second thought all the time.

ANYWAY, I'm just rambling there. Yes, I have fewer people in my life now...kind of.

I recently caught up with an old friend and although we're just friends, he opened doors for me, moved my chair and bought our tickets and stuff and I was sooooo weirded out. I have never experienced that before. Honestly. When I told my friends, they were genuinely sad that I was so shocked by this. I am not high maintenance in any way, I am happy with food, tv and a laugh, so I think I've always just settled and assumed that because that's what I'm used to, that's just how it is. But it was so nice, I can't even explain.

I thought all chivalry was dead. Apparently not, and I am SO glad!

I've not been up to much really this month.

I have got a few things in the sales which I will share with you in another post or two when I get them all together!

I've bought a fair bit of make up, some clothes and bedding and.....erm.... I don't even know!

I haven't really made any resolutions this year either, I just want to make myself happier this year, I think that's my plan.

I  made myself a playlist earlier and I've got it on now and I LOVE it.

It's got random stuff on it like;

The Eagles, Taking Back Sunday, The Used, Fleetwood Mac, Now, Now, Cyndi Lauper, Avril Lavigne, Jack off Jill, Marilyn Manson, Kittie, Ashlee Simpson, Lily Allen, The Kooks, The Libertines, Razorlight, InMe, Demi Lovato, The Killers, The Strokes, Brand New, No Doubt, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Dolly Parton, Patsy Cline, Ellie Goulding, Glassjaw, Norah Jones, B52's, Funeral For A Friend, The Verve, Otis Redding, Lorde, R.E.M, Drake, The Cranberries.......

To name a few haha.

It's public and it's just called 'playlist' haha good luck finding it! If you do though, it's a good'un!

Well, I'm gonna get on with my room listening to my playlist haha.

Nice to just post something :)

Happy New Year.

SO, here it is....2013. We made it! haha!

2012 was an odd one.

Started off the year with a pretty grim outlook BUT, turns out it wasn't that bad of a year!

Made some new friends, made some decisions and  things started to look up after my birthday!

Got accepted onto my college course I've been applying to get on for the last few years! Finally get to do hairdressing and start making some pennies!!

Talked to this weirdo til 6am by the water ... stayed in touch with that weirdo and got myself a boy :).

One of the sweetest, most annoying creatures I have ever had the pleasure of knowing...and I know some pretty annoying people.

Went on holiday with my Mum and sister and it overlapped with my best friend so we got to spend a whole day together drinking cocktails!

My other best friend had a new baby girl, who is the tiniest, most beautiful thing I have ever seen.

My cousin got an AMAZING new job in Abu Dhabi so I now have more reason to fly Emirates haha!

Looking back now at 2009/2010/2011, this year has been really quite easy and  I think that's why it has flown by. Other than me being ill for the last leg of it, 2012 brought some wonderful things with it, I feel like such a lucky girl, but now I can't wait to see what 2013 has to offer!! - LOADS I hope!

Hopefully some travel, better health, a job I love, and more happy times and happy people!!

I never stick to resolutions so I'm not even going to bother, I'm just setting myself a few small guidelines:

Make the most of every moment I have, even the bad times (occasionally I do LOVE a good argument to cleanse the mind! ha!), look after myself, no drinking unless it's a special occasion, eat better for better skin and overall health and a better immune system, enjoy the treats!, exercise and meditate more, sleep more, drink more water and last but not least, save some money!!!

Basically do all of these things to make myself happy!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

hope you all have the best year ever and enjoy every moment!!
