As the new year approaches and 2016 draws to a close, I have been doing some serious relaxing and reflecting, because believe me it's been a stressful and hectic year. (thank-you A-levels)
For starters I've been thinking about all the exciting, and not so exciting things that have happened this year for me. This mainly consisted of me looking through my camera roll and reminiscing on all the fun stuff I've done, cos I take pictures of literally everything - who needs a diary when we have modern technology?!
Obviously, in a year you can cram in lots and lots of things, both good and bad, and let's be honest, for the world as a whole it's been pretty bad, but I can think of some pretty good things that have happened this year.
One thing that was super awesome for me was prom! It was overall such a fun night - my makeup went according to plan and my dress was only £10, so I saved money and had good eyebrows? What more could a girl ask for.
Another embarrassingly admitable accomplishment for me this year was owning my first beauty blender - believe me it's changed my life.
Some other fun things consist of getting a new job, getting some new qualifications, climbing MOUNT SNOWDON (it was awesome and totally worth it for the pictures) and learning to drive and also thank the Lord for Shawn Mendes' new album and for blessing me with the honour of seeing him live- that made my year.
These amongst many more make up my 2016, so it's safe to say it was pretty alright for me.
At the start of 2016, I made some new years resolutions (as many of us earthlings do) and I surprised even myself as I actually kept them - well one.
I have now been a vegetarian for a whole year! It's hard - but totally worth it! Plus feels great to say I've actually stuck to a resolution.
As for 2017, I've already decided on my resolutions - which I intend to keep as best as possible.
Like many others suffering from the-post-christmas-belly-blob in 2017, I'm going to be a regular at the gym - I even bought new trainers! Although I haven't actually got the membership yet..... I fully intend on sorting that out as soon as possible - cos this girl wants abs.
I also intend on being more active on my instagram account (@ForeverFern_) as I love creating makeup looks and posting them on there, and also more active on this blog as well, however forgive me if I'm not perfect - I'm an abnormally busy seventeen year old.
In addition, I want to make myself a more positive person. I recently saw something on tumblr which really got me thinking and made me think "Hey, that's what I wanna do" Basically it consists of replacing "I'm sorry" with 'Thankyou" for example instead of "sorry I'm late" you say "Thankyou for waiting" because believe me I say sorry waaaayyyy too much for no reason, hopefully this makes me more positive!
I also really want to keep a diary, but I have no spare time so, instead I thought I'd start scrapbooking all the fun and exciting things I do next year. It can help me remember what I've done easier and also give me an excuse to have a pretty scrapbook!
Of course I have some boring ones, but I think they're pretty important to mention: Passing my driving test, Passing my AS levels (fingers,toes, eyes EVERYTHING crossed) and also being happy! what a cliche but it's important!!
I hope you all have an amazing new year and I hope you've all had a fantastic 2016! Let me know your favourite parts and if you have any new years resolutions!
Thanks again, Happy new year - see you in 2017!
