As much as I wasn't ready for it, 2017 reared it's ugly face. The beginning of a new year puts so much pressure on me. Every
January 1st it's like, "Okay , I HAVE to get my life together now" and then December 31st come around and I'm like, "Well shit."
Fingers crossed (& hopefully i don't jinx it by saying this cuz mark my words i'll honestly drive my car off a cliff if i do) 2017 will be the year that I
achieve everything I jot down right here right now on this post!
⓵ Get In The Best Shape I've Ever Been ♡
I'm pretty sure I've said this every year since like 2012. But I'm horribly out of shape. I can run up a flight of stairs and need a 15 minute break. Like girl! That ain't good!
⓶ Continue My Vegetarian Journey ♡
I haven't mentioned this really anywhere except Twitter but hello, I'm vegetarian now! Wow how fitting since I'm already a stereotypical opinionated, liberal, hipster, millennial amirite! They all go hand-in-hand huh? :-) No but seriously. I talk about how much I love animals and how I think that people shouldn't be allowed to hunt them for sport because it's f*cked up, yada yada yada. But then people would always clock me like, "Girl you eat meat tho." and I was like, "Damn you got me there." So I took a step back, had a moment of self-reflection, and realized, why do I value the life of one animal over another? The lives of all animals are precious. Whether fluffy, cuddly ones you can keep in your home or not. Going on 3 weeks strong, let's continue another 49 more!
⓷ Reach 10k Subs on My YouTube Channel & Expand My Brand ♡
I think if I can shell out consistent videos, that 10k will be mine by the end of the year. Also, my channel is very reaction heavy so I'd like to get back into my beauty/lifestyle roots! Sprinkled with reactions that is.
⓸ Start a Bullet Journal ♡
If you don't know what a bullet journal is it's basically a customizable organization system. It can be your to-do list, notebook, diary, sketchbook, or a combination of all of the above all wrapped up in a pretty little moleskin journal. The creative possibilities with these things are all your own and they can become little works of art that also keep you on task.
Some of my favorite bullet journalists:

⓹ Better My Korean ♡
I can read it. I can write it. But understanding it is still a complete miss. I can catch some words or phrases, but I still can't sing along to all of my favorite songs. It gets frustrating so I want to tackle the obstacle that is this language barrier!
⓺ Be PUNCTUAL ♡
My #1 top flaw as a human being is that I can never be on time to anything. I literally was 45 minutes late back to work today because I fell asleep on my break. Who does that?! So, this is something that I definitely definitely definitely need to work on.
⓻ Get My Bank Account Back On Fleek ♡
I've always been fairly good at saving money, so my bank account used to look real nice. But about 2 years ago I was in and out of the hospital on top of losing my job. So all of my bills + being jobless for months depleted my bank account. So I wanna kick ass and get my money back up. :-(
⓼ Learn Calligraphy ♡
This kinda goes along with the bullet journal thing. I LOVE writing. Not in the sense of making up stories but the ACT of writing. I have countless notebooks that I'm always jotting down lists and things in. So I'd like to learn calligraphy to make my lists more...appealing to the eye.
