Every year around the time of my birthday I write a list of goals that I want to achieve before I reach my next birthday and my next age. If you would like to see how I got on with last years list then you can read all about it here. So what would I like to achieve this year?
- Become a healthy weight: This is always on my goals list, but this year it is more important than ever. The other day I checked my BMI, and I am only a few points off of being classed as morbidly obese. It was a great shock to me. I'll be writing more about this very soon...
- Get my career on track: Again the same as last year, I still need to 100% pick what I want to do and stick to it, and start working towards it.
- Make at least 2 Youtube videos a month: Ideally I want to post one Youtube video a week, but sometimes that may not be possible, so I think at least one video every fortnight is a much more realistic goal.
- Move out of Tim's Parents place: Tim and I have been living with his parents for almost an entire year now, and it's really beginning to wear thin. We really need our own space, and we are CRAVING it.
- Become 80% Fluent in Spanish: The app I use to learn Spanish (Duolingo) tells me that I am currently 30% fluent in Spanish, so by next year I hope to be at least 80% if not 100% fluent in Spanish.
- Enter into the Race for Life again: Last year my goal was to beat my Race for Life time, however I didn't even manage to enter, so this year I'm going back to basics with this goal.
- Try a new exercise/sport: I am really keen to get fit, and I would absolutely love to take up a new sport, due to my seriously competitive nature I feel like it would help me get into exercise.
- Take a holiday outside of the UK: It doesn't have to be somewhere far away, and it doesn't even have to be a long holiday but I haven't left the UK since 2010... That is FAR too long ago.
- Make new friends: One of the things I missed the most about being at Uni, is being surrounded by my best friends. I miss that feeling so much, so I need to get some local besties in my life!
- Create a new make up look every week for my Instagram: I have a separate Instagram account for my MUA work, and at the moment it is very neglected, so I hope to create a new make up look every week (mainly on myself), to showcase. If you would like to follow my make up Instagram you can find it here.
- Save at least £100 a month: Saving money has never been my strong point, but when I finally have a job sorted, I want to save at least £100 a month.
- Visit Thorpe Park as many times as humanly possible: At Fright night last year, Tim and I decided to pay a little bit extra and upgrade our tickets to a year pass! So I intend to make the most of it.
- Keep practising my baking: Before Christmas I was baking every week, and my skills were really improving, I took a break for Christmas and haven't managed to get back into it yet.
- Finish the video games I own before buying more: I have a huge list of video games sitting and waiting to be played/finished. A full list of these will be available on my 25 Before 25 page.
- Print Photos and Create a Photo Album/Scrapbook: Nowadays we take plenty of photos, and share them on social media, but how many of our memories do we print and keep close to us? I really want to make a photo album of my favourite photos.
- Use my DSLR more and learn how to use if properly: Along the lines of the goal above not only do I want to cherish my photos, but I want to take better photos.
- Go to at least two concerts this year: I really don't go to enough concerts, so I want to go to at least two this year.
- See a West End Show: I have a long list of shows that I want to go and see in London, and I can't believe that I have reached the age of 24, and never been to see one. Top of my list are War Horse, Wicked, and Hairspray.
- Write something other than my blog: I love to write, which is why I started this blog, but this is really the only thing that I do write. Really I like to tell a story, so I want to write a short story, or a script or something to that equivalent.
- Stay Sober: I have now been sober for an entire year, and I plan to keep it that way.
- Get a Tattoo?: This one has a question mark next to it because I am constantly on and off about whether I actually want to have a tattoo.
- Do a 'couples class' with Tim: Whether it be couples cooking, or something else, I think it would be great fun to do a class together!
- Volunteer at an Animal rescue: This is something I have always wanted to do, and I really should do this whilst I can.
- Go on a road trip, and SHARE the driving: Tim and I often go off for weekends away, but he always drives. I'd like to go on a proper road trip with him where we share the driving. Ideally a road trip across America, but do I see that happening this year? NOPE!
- Do something new every month: Such as horse-riding, Yoga, crafting etc.
So there you have it guys, my 25 Before 25 goals list. It took me SO long to think of all of these, but I am really happy with what I have come up with. Let me know in the comments what your goals are for the next year?
