New Years Resolutions

so i might be a little late with a post on new years resolutions, but i can't even remember the last time i made one, so i've actually shocked myself at how long my list is they year, but i think they're all achievable to i'm going to try my best! and somehow, writing them down in a blogpost makes them feel a little more official.

1. Try some Soap & Glory products

I've actually already bought my first Soap & Glory product - A Great Kisser Lip Moisture Balm. I hear/read so many beauty blogs and everyone seems to rave over this brand so I am determined to start trying out some more of the pieces. I think the reason i've avoided it in the past is because it's more expensive than the products i would usually buy, so i'll be keeping an eye out for any offers and taking advantage of them. 

2. Try some Lush products

Again, something that I see a lot on other blogs but haven't really ever tried for myself. I saw a review on one of their shampoo bars this morning and i really want to get my hands on one now. Because we don't have a bath at our uni house, they're one of the things i look forward to the most when i come home so i'll be testing out Lush bits to make them even better.

3. Do 20 sit ups every morning and every night

Because I can't afford or be bothered to go to the gym - this is my alternative.

4. ALWAYS walk to work. unless it's raining.

Another keep fit attempt. It's a mile each way. I'm just lazy sometimes.

5. Eat more healthily
Fruit & veg seem to be non-existant in my uni diet, so I'm gonna try and eat a lot better and eat lots more salad! 

6. Try and save £1000 in my savings for car/internship

This will be purely from my wages I earn until I come home from uni for the summer. I'm interning this summer, so have no form of income for a while, so i want to try and have enough for my car insurance plus some money to keep me going through the summer. 

7. Don't attempt a spending ban

Because I will not stick to it and it makes me want to buy things even more because I know i can't/shouldn't.

8. Book a holiday

Hopefully with some of the attempted £1000 save. James has an apartment in Spain and I think there's a few plans to try and head over there at some point. 

9. Purchase a brush cleaner for  make-up brushes

So I can look after the ones I have and save money on replacing brushes. I have my eye on the e.l.f daily cleaner and shampoo.

10. Jar project

Everytime something good happens to me or makes me smile this year, I'll write it down and put it in a jar so I can open it up at the end of the year and look back on all those things, no matter how small they were.

11. Watch as many films as possible off my list of 'Films I Should Have Seen But Haven't'

I've actually spent the last day or so compiling this list. Initially it was just meant to be 52 films long - one a week, pretty achievable, right? Well when i'd finished, there were 81 on the list so i've decided to round it up to 100 films and cross off as many of them as possible. I just need 11 more, so if anyone has any suggestions, please leave them in comments below - i think from the mix on the list you can see i'm pretty willing to watch most things! i am updating this as i go along throughout the year!
