be nicer to people, especially to those I don’t like <– This was hard. But this is something I legitimately worked on. Still a work in progress.
but don’t waste time on people who aren’t worth it <– Definitely did this. And I highly suggest doing this. It will make your life so much better. Kind of like cleaning out a big mess.
eat healthier foods and cut down on those sour patch kids and Momma G’s nachos <– I did this!!! Not saying that I’m the healthiest eater in the world. I still have work to do. But I gave up junk food for Lent this year so the nachos and sour patch kids definitely cut down. I rarely have nachos now and I don’t remember the last time I had sour patch kids. Over the summer, I started drinking smoothies almost every day. I even recorded a tutorial of the type of smoothie I made on YouTube. You can click here if you wanna watch and learn how to make them.
eat out less because food is expensive and I need to save money <– I definitely don’t eat out as often as I used to!
balance the social and academic lives better <– Worked on this a bit. Still a work in progress.
focus even more on school <– Yeah…. a work in progress.
don’t give up when things get too hard <– As of now, I’m still an Industrial Engineering major? I guess I haven’t given up… yet.
spend time with God more <– I read the Bible (almost) every day now. I always find myself praying for someone or myself. But it’s still a work in progress. Always a work in progress.
exercise more (squats) <– Actually did good with this over the summer… then the fall semester began. And I slacked. But I have learned that my work outs are much better by myself than with other people.
keep in touch with my friends outside of school and state <– I think I did this. You will have to verify with them though, lol.
make new friends and make the friend circle bigger <– Not sure if I did this… but definitely met a lot of people this year.
cut down on social media and take random social media fasts <– I can confidently say I did NOT do this. And I know everyone who knows me can agree with me. Definitely need cut down in 2016, haha.
reward myself with social activities after doing something good <– I honestly don’t know. So probably not.
listen to people more <– Not sure what I meant by this. If I meant by listening to other people’s advice, then I tried. If I meant by listening to people more in general and their stories, that is a work in progress.
don’t share too much about myself because not everyone cares and not everyone needs to know <– a total work in progress.
sleep earlier and don’t sleep in till lunchtime <– Improved, but work in progress. Because I slept in till 1pm yesterday (but it’s Christmas break, sooo).
don’t judge people <– I think I’ve improved in this area. But always a work in progress!
make money so I can be a rich college student (not basic) <– LOL. Yeah… I took a debit card fast for about two months. Only worked for the two months. Definitely the opposite of a rich college student at the moment.
do something extraordinary <– Didn’t do anything extraordinary unless it was unknowingly?
make a difference in someone’s life <– Not that I know of. If I did and someone feels like sharing the story with me, please contact me. But only if you feel like it!
Overall, 2015 was an improvement from 2014. I was hoping that 2015 would have been the year a lot of my questions were gonna be answered, but I’m still kinda in a limbo trying to figure my life out and seeing what God has planned for me and my future. I did learn that my love of social media and internet actually wasn’t all a bad thing. I truly do love blogging and sharing my random thoughts with whoever reads this and I know it’s something that I am supposed to be doing! So if you’ve enjoyed my posts this year, expect more this upcoming year. I am excited to see what 2016 holds in store for me. I have a feeling it will be an exciting year. Hope you all have a wonderful new year and be safe!
