Lists

It’s December and today’s the day that I’m a year older and it’s time to get more of my sh*t together; though I DO feel like I have most things together. The past few months have been a whirlwind of craziness and I’m finally feeling a wee bit more legit in my job position that I’ve been for a few months, and here it’s getting busy cause CHRISTMAS PRODUCT REVIEWS! And the in between that, I still am trying to get back to your lovely comments (thank you so much as always,) and then going through all your lovely posts….and then binge watch Jessica Jones and squish in Once Upon A Time, and finally getting back into Doctor Who. Then I just spent a super chill and fun weekend in Sechelt and then back to reality I went.

I’ve always been the type of person to write what needs to get done, rather than using an app or whatnot, and then there’s a mental list for shopping. A faux fur vest has been something I’ve wanted for a while but was on the boat because it’s not something I could really pull off, and when would I wear it?! I found one from Dynamite for a reasonable price and found that it’s quite useful- whether to stay warm at home or throw it on as an extra layer during the now-extremely cold days. With neutral, minimalistic clothing- this cream coloured vest is bombtastic over anything! The tricky thing is to not let it overwhelm my short stature.

I believe the universe is too rarely so lazy for coincidences (guess where that reference came from…extra extra love if you know!)last week I came across the question in my Quora feed (my new favourite lurking site btw,) – How do I celebrate my birthday when I am all alone in my life? My favourite answer was this one by Stan Hayward- “there is no shortage of lonely people.” I don’t consider myself “all alone,” but there are a lot of incidents where I feel my thoughts and visions are different from many people and sometimes I’m not the most relatable person in the world. Or maybe because the year turning 24 went so much more smoothly compared to this year’s wrecking ball. But life’s full of lessons, right? I know that we are never to compare ourselves to other people, but I see the closest rolling around in a mud of unloneliness; I wonder where I did wrong? Well, to push those thoughts aside, I’m focusing on what I want to achieve next year instead.

Diversify the blog. I’m hoping to put out more content than just constant makeup reviews, what do you think??!
Exercise more…that gym club membership would be growing mold by now if it was a physical, tangible object.
Spend more consciously. I have been tracking my expenses and it does a great job in making me feel guilty (in a good way.) And I’ve done a pretty sweet job avoiding Black Friday, but maybe that’s because I rather splurge on a laptop instead.

Then if I get lucky I can get a place soon…and maybe get a full driver’s license LOL (that stuff is harder than a university engineering final in my opinion.)
