Checking in on New Years Resolutions


We're almost halfway through the year now and I thought it was time that I went back and had a look at the goals and resolutions I had set myself, and how I am progressing towards those goals.

1.  Come Back from my USA trip with Money:
Sooo I actually did, but not too much money. I bought a coat that was around $250 so that was a bit. Then when I returned from the US, I had to go through all this drama to get back an almost $400 deposit that I had to put down to rent bicycles. That took ages, but at least I also had that money leftover. But overall, I successfully completed this goal!

2. Book a Holiday for 2016:
This goal may end up changing to 2017, just because money is tight being newly moved out. But Josh and I have definitely spoke about booking a trip around Europe, so this will happen, but probably not this year, so not really a fail, just an adjustment. 

3. Try to Save $5,000:
I'm halfway there on this goal, and I could probably save the rest pretty easily but there is just always so much stuff to buy. Like I'm currently getting my hair colour lightened, and I want to decorate the rooms in my house properly. Everything costs money. I'm not saving for anything in particular, just saving. 

4. Buy a Bicycle / Ride more Places:
I did actually have the money to buy this bike, but then I was worried that I was going to waste my money and never even ride the bike. So I haven't bought it yet. But I really want to, hopefully when the weather is better. I'm most likely not going to be riding anywhere at the moment as it's too cold and it has been raining a lot. So perhaps at the end of Winter!

5. Be More Fun:
I'm not really sure what I even meant by this really. Or how I wanted to complete this in a measurable sense. I haven't said no to any activities, and try to actually initiate hang outs with people. So in that way I think I have started on the way for this resolution. 

6. Continue Blogging!
Yes sir! I definitely have kept this resolution in action. I've been blogging regularly, and with a schedule. Monday, Wednesday & Friday. So it looks like this will be continuing for the foreseeable future! I'm enjoying it anyway. 

Cya! xx
