So let's talk about New Year's Goals. This year I'm committing myself to 3 goals:
1-Be better at "adulting."
Yes, "adulting." Making and keeping doctor, dentist, and optometrist appointments. I already went to the dentist (clean bill of health!), next the doctor. Also be better with keeping my car's information up to date. I feel like I'm going to struggle with this one a little. I'm not going to lie.
2-Money/Life Balance. Most of my free money (money that doesn't go towards bills) goes towards clothes. I'm a recovering impulse shopper so this year I'm really going to challenge myself to only purchase items that will enhance my wardrobe/style. Also if I'm going to spend money I want to spend it on experiences, not things. So with that being said I've already booked my first trip of 2016 which I'm mega excited about.
3-Be BOLD! In all areas of my life. Work, personal, fashion, appearance, EVERYTHING! I can be a firecracker but I can also be very mousy. Neither of these qualities are bad but I'm going to hone in on their strengths and use them to my advantage in situations. Also something simple that I've been doing lately is wearing lipstick! Okay, so I know that sounds like a silly thing to feel "bold" about but I had always hated my lips. I thought they were too thin, crooked, ugly but starting on NYE I wore lipstick. Not just any lipstick, but a bright PINK lipstick and you know what I realized? I actually have kind of cute lips! I wasted 30 years of my life despising a part of myself for no reason. Well, this year I'm going to try to not waste a single day on limiting myself due to insecurities, fears, or low self-esteem.
I'm really excited to see myself grow this year and every day, actually. I'm a firm believer in what you ask for you manifest so I hope that y'all follow me on this journey and I'll try to be better about updating this!
Until then here are some photos of 2016 so far:
NYE in McAllen, Tx. As you can see my hair is darker than I my usual color (my mistake) but hopefully it'll grow on me.
Dinner and drinks with Phillip and Ari is always a good time lasting until 4 or 5 in the morning. If you've seen the show How I Met Your Mother Phillip and Ari are Marshall and Lily and Isaac would be Ted making me the newcomer. It's hilarious when they share stories of Isaac BC (before Cynthia) they're just an all-around good couple to have within your company.
Adventuring around at the McNay Art Museum here in San Antonio. It's free every Thursday after 4pm so I had to take advantage! PS-my dress received a lot of compliments! It's from Forever21, in case anyone is wondering.
