2015 revisited and 2016 Goals.

2015 Goals and comments;

1. Establish a gym/fitness routine.
I found the gym in 2014, and I want to establish a firm routine that I an realistically stick to.
I started the year pretty good and it fell away so quickly I am not sure this is something I can really stick to until I find something convienient that I don't hate.
2. Be kind to yourself!This is a development of ‘Be more positive (even when things are hard)’ last year.  I know this is ongoing, but make more time for myself and start putting myself first more.
Ongoing - but done.  I feel like I have a general more positive attitude about myself and I have spent more time looking after myself and trying to minimise future damage.
3. Travel out of Ireland at least twice - ONCE TO FRANCE.Now I will be going on a Hen do in April, and I need to visit France.  Need to do this.
DONE! I went to Japan, France, Liverpool and London this year.  I was absolutely delighted to visit France and speak French to the natives. :)
4. Read 12 books - 1 per month.I have fallen seriously out of love with reading, and I want to change that.  I have set an easy to reach goal to make sure I don’t give up.
...FAILED. Yup, I am sorry I didn't do this.  I maybe got to 5?
5. Learn French starting with Duolingo.I have started this and is it difficult but it is great!
I learnt and I gave up, without an end goal I found this too difficult to find the motivation for.
6. Move out!You are 25, get yo ass out of the house, live with your friends and live the dream.

Still no, major life changes meant this sadly wasn't possible.
7. Blog once a week - if you’re home.Try and write and keep your mind active!
No but I kept it active in other ways which interested me more.
8. Stop eating SO many sweets.I mean, seriously you are addicted and an adult. Stahhhp ittt.
I definitely cut down, and the 4 fillings I got as a result of eating so many in years gone by served as a painful reminder on this one!
9. Drink more water - and cut down fizzy drink to weekends only.Take care of your teef, hydrate yo body.
DONE.  I definitely cut fizzy drinks down (with the exception of Christmas).  I mostly drink sugar free dilute now, or water.
10. Don’t be ashamed to spend money on yourself.You are a serial saver and there is more to life.  Travel, do night classes, go to a play, go on spa breaks.  Say YES and enjoy your money.
YES.  Although I did save still a considerable amount I bought myself whatever I wanted.  Including tickets to many plays, a Ps4, and travelling trips.

Now onto the difficult part to write.  The dreaded goals for this year.

1.  Move out.
If you don't do any of the rest of the list do this one.  Get a house share, move in with friends or if you get really lucky get your own place.  I will be so proud of you!
2. Learn to make something new.
In 2015 I started making bath bombs and other basic cosmetics.  Learn how to do more, maybe candles?  Be creative!
3. READ. 12 books a year.
I am recycling this goal from last year but it's achievable and we can definitely do it.
4.  Take care of your mental health.
You know what I mean for this one.  Take care of yourself and put it as a priority.  Even over moving out!
5. Look after dogs.
You can't have one but keep looking after them whether it be through borrowmydoggy or visiting Lauren and bringing her and her dogs out for a good walk.
6. Eat less meat.
In the month of January I have tried to limit meat to one meal a day.  I'd like to continue this to strive to be healthier and try more vegetable based meals.
7. Don't hoard your LUSH stuff - use it!
8.  Go and see as many plays as you can and want to!
9. Dye your hair back to it's natural colour - and back if you hate it! 
10. Look into Invisalign, have a consultation and see if it is affordable.
