~REALISTIC~ RESOLUTIONS

Hey what's up you guys. Sorry I never actually did #BLOGMAS. Here's what happened: during finals week, I couldn't update cause I was too busy studying. During winter break, I couldn't update cause I was too busy relaxing. Y'all know how that goes. But here we are, a new year. ICYMI, I turned 20 on Wednesday and ICYMI again, I absolutely hate New Years resolutions. Instead, I do birthday resolutions. But my birthday is two days before the new year so it ends up basically being New Years resolutions. WHATEVERRRR. But, I'm back on my blog right now to give you my list of BDAY RESOLUTIONS. This year I really made an effort to make resolutions that I'll actually keep beyond January 2nd. So here it is.

1. Only use the purple heart emoji (unless I'm talking about BYU sports in which case it is acceptable to use the blue heart emoji)

2. pack a lunch everyday (aka no more great harvest everyday lol)

3. branch out on types of noodles I make (not just spaghetti, but elbow, rigatoni, penne, etc..)

4. finish all of the books I started in 2015 (so like 24)

5. be more active (on social media)

6. put my phone away when I'm at dinner or lunch w/ someone (but leave the ringer on, just in case)

7. finish criminal minds

8. start + finish another really long, intense crime drama that gives me nightmares

9. rewatch criminal minds

10. make a master list of good TV shows so when people ask for recommendations, I'm prepared

11. use my planner (I have a really cute one for 2016, so I'll definitely use it more than once every 3 weeks like last year)

12. say yes to fun things

13. but also say no to fun things if I don't want to do them

14. 25 squats a day every day no questions asked

15. put myself first (I already do this, it just felt right to put this on my list again)

16. create an instagram theme and frickin stick with it

17. compliment other people more

18. also compliment myself more

19. snuggle with a puppy once a month

20. go to bed BEFORE midnight on school nights (maybe we'll see)

21. less swig, more sodalicious


XOXO,
gabs.
