HAPPY NEW YEAR | 01.17.16

I didn’t forget about you guys, I promise.  I hope every single one of you had a wonderful and Christmas and rung in the New Year right.  I was going to post a what I got for Christmas post again this year, but you’ll never believe what I got!  My boyfriend!!  My dad flew my boyfriend to TX to spend his winter break with me!  How amazing is that?  Which also explains why I haven’t posted anything since last year.

Having my boyfriend here was so awesome.  We did so many fun things and made so many memories.  I obviously took many pictures while he was here and figured I’d share them with you guys.

Before I post the pictures I also wanted to let you guys know that I started a YouTube channel!  You can click here to check it out.  There’s some funny videos with my boyfriend that you’ll die laughing at!  You can subscribe and comment on one of my videos that you came from my blog!  That would be awesome to know!

Very thankful for him and all the memories each one of these photos represents.  I love him so much and I can’t wait for more adventures and memories throughout the years. <3

01.01.15 - HAPPY NEW YEAR

Everyone always says “new year, new me!” and I think that’s so lame.  You can change who you are any day, a new year doesn’t change that.  I usual set goals for myself, things I want to accomplish throughout the year.  Becoming a better you is something I think everyone should try every single day, not just for a couple days into the new year and forget about it.  So my goals aren’t going to be ‘be nicer’ ‘be a better friend’ nothing like that.  These are big things that I want to accomplish, on top of continuing to be care free and happy throughout all the ups and downs that I may go through this year.  Now at the end of this year I’m going to look back on this post and make another post and see what I actually accomplished and if I didn’t accomplish something I’ll explain why.  I think this will give me more courage to go after what goals I set.

The first thing I want to do is purchase my first semester of college.  I’m going online because I personally prefer.  I finally have enough money so I plan on starting this when I return from New York at the end of January.

My second goal ties into my first goal, but I’m hoping to at least finish half my degree by June, which may be hard because I’m starting a job and I’ll be moving so my Internet and things will be shut off in May and I’ll be on the road for a couple days to get to Texas, but if I don’t finish by then I hope to be half way done by August.

My third goal is to make a healthy transition back to Texas.  Going to place where I don’t know anybody is difficult, but I’ve moved twice in 1 year so hopefully third time is a charm and it’s easier for me.

My fourth goal is to save up money and really pay attention to what I spend my money on.  I want to be able to still afford to visit New York every few months and still be able to afford my schooling. 

My fifth goal is to get a job with USAA.  I’m going to be studying child development in school so working at their daycare will be such a great experience and a plus is they might help pay for my schooling which would be such an ideal situation for me.

So those are my 5 big goals I hope to accomplish this year.  I know things won’t come easy and I’ll work hard for what I want and study even harder.  We’ll see where this year takes me and see if I’m strong enough to conquer all the battles.  I wish everyone a happy new year and I hope this year doesn’t disappoint!  What are some of your goals for 2015?
