The Snow Has Covered All Your Footsteps, And I Can Follow You No More...

A little inspiration for January!!
It's 2014!!
WOO!!
Yes a new year has arrived and with it comes a new month - January!!
Unfortunately winter is still with us and so is the rain, wind, snow, freezing temperatures and the need to hide under the nearest blanket. As much as all of the above sucks, we are able to find comfort in raiding the many vast online and high street sales. I can confirm that I have raided many a high street sale and although some are lacking (*cough* Topshop *cough*); I have still found a few gems. Another good part of January and the new year is resolutions!! I have actually done a post on my own resolutions (here), but not a list of fashion ones. Now I could say to wear more colour, dress more daring, learn to walk in heels but I won't. I think the only fashion resolution I have is to stop wearing my tartan shirt with every outfit (including pyjamas). I do love my tartan shirts, but I can't wear them with EVERYTHING (well I know I can but for the purpose of this, lets say I can't). We shall see if I can achieve this resolution by the end of January (I give it a week). 
With this wintery weather in full force the only thing to do is stay in bed - but if you must go to work then dig out the chunkiest knit you have, grab a hot coffee (Krispy Kreme's are optional) and embrace the never-ending winter.
Enjoy!!

We Were strangers, Starting Out On A Journey...

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
Yes, 2014 has arrived and that means another 365 days to make the most of!
With the start of another year, we are able to mould and create a new person or perfect the old one. In my case I think I'm just going to perfect the old one. In 2013 I managed to grow as a person with and without my family, I started college for the third time and I broke my '9 month' curse at work. I've learnt determination and perserverance - two traits I have always longed for but have always found unattainable.  In the past 12 months I have met some amazing people and experienced the best and the worst that life can throw at you. I went on a plane for the first time and spent the best 5 days of my life in the magical world of Disneyland Paris. I turned 21 and officially became an adult, which can be quite a scary thought but I think it came at the right time for me. I sent off my UCAS and now I'm waiting to hear whether or not universities like my 47 line personal statement.
2013 held so many memories for me and although at times I was emotionally unstable, at the end of the 12 months I feel content with how things turned out.
2014!!
It's a new year!!
Now with a new year comes new resolutions.
I don't usually have resolutions as the only one I ever had I managed to keep (allergies), so I thought this year I would go back to my old tradition and write a list of resolutions.
1) Eat more healthily
2) Actually do some exercise (no shopping doesn't count)
3) Spend less money
4) Save more money
5) Eat less doughnuts
6) Enjoy everyday as if it's the last
7) Do my assignments on time
8) Explore more cultures
9) Keep moving forward
10) Visit Disneyland Paris

2014 is going to be the year of me!
This year I am going to be (slightly) selfish and do what I need to do in order to achieve my long term goals. I will love and cherish my friends and family who have supported me throughout 2013, you truly mean the world to me. This year I'm going to achieve my best, whatever that may be.
2014 is going to be an adventure and I hope you come along for the ride with me!!

All my love
