2015 So far!

2015

It has been a while since I have last written a blog post, but I have not been feeling to inspired or creative lately, but I thought I would write a post, which has no real central topic but just something I thought people may enjoy reading.

First of all, I cannot believe how fast this year is going already. It’s going so quickly. But saying that, a lot has happened in the past two months and I have a feeling that this year is going to be  a good year.

One of my main focuses this year is to make myself do things I wouldn’t do normally and make myself become more adventurous and social. Unfortunately for me this means I have to cross the subject of saving money, which is not my strongest point. When I’m out there is something that comes across me that makes me think ‘Oh well, it’ll be payday soon’ which ultimately leads me to living on bare minimum for a while and not being able to go out with friends! But this year I am determined to do more exciting things and visit more places. For example, it is my birthday this month and myself and my best friend have got plans to go to London, see a show and have a drunken weekend away, something of which I cannot wait for. So this year will be the year I do things because I want to do them and learn a lot more about myself and really push myself!

            On a similar topic, one of the things I am determined to do, is become more confident. If you come across me in real life, I am quite a quite person and I will keep myself to myself as much as possible until I feel comfortable with you. Unfortunately this means that sometimes I miss out on the opportunities to make new friendships and possibilities. I have always feared being seen as an obnoxious person, so I made myself quite a refrained person, but I just want the confidence to know that what I am doing is ok and not everybody I meet will think badly of me. I would also like to incorporate this into my career as I feel that if I become more confident in my job then I have a better chance of progressing and being seen upon as a more reliable and approachable member of staff.

            So far through 2015 I have been trying my best to eat better and take care of myself as much as I can, and I feel that I am doing ok, but could be doing more. I have weighed the same for the past year and when seeing people for the first time in a while the first thing they comment on is how much weight I have lost. Although I am very grateful of this and appreciate them saying it, I just don’t feel that I do look any different and would still like to be a little be slender. Although I am not going to start making promises to myself to go to the gym (never going to happen!) I will try to start eating healthier and cutting down on how much I drink and the amount of snacks I eat. As you may or may not know, I work in a cinema, which can get very busy so I am always active and doing something at work which is great, but when at home, I am possibly one of the laziest people you will ever come across. I could quite happily be in my bedroom with my laptop and snacks all not and not move and be ok with it. But I feel that I should start maybe going for walk or some simple exercises that I can do at home, which will not cost me and I will feel comfortable with.

I realise that this post has been a bit of a ramble but personally I find posts like these interesting to read. If you did enjoy it let me know and I will do some more like this. I will be posting more soon!
