So, it's about time for another update... And since this is the first of the year, I guess it's time for a re-cap of last year, to think about last years new year resolutions and may be make some for this year!
About this time last year, the resolutions I made were:
1.) Visit 3 places I've never been before
2.) have a proper holiday
3.) save atleast 2000
4.) either move out or start an OU degree (both if finances allow)
5.) get back into shape
And this is how things turned out:
1.) I managed to visit two places I've never been before - Brighton and Cheltenham (well, Prescott Hill...)
2.) I failed at this. I did try, however I got let down by a friend However I do have a holiday booked for this year - I'm going to Florida with some friends in March.
3.) I managed this! Infact I more than managed this and I'd have more left if I hadn't have spent loads on a holiday and a new car...
4.) Well, I managed neither of these... The plan was to be moved out with a friend at the beginning of January, however, as seems to be the story of my year, I was let down by a friend! The OU degree is still in the pipeline...
5.) This just didn't happen, though I have lost some weight and I am very much getting back into excercising
So yeah, after setting some realistic and achievable goals, I managed to meet 1 of them! haha!
Oh well, onwards and upwards as they say... I really need to set myself some realistic goals for 2010!
So:
1.) Look for a new job (I'm already achieving this as I have an interview on Monday! )
2.) Get in shape (It's happening this year!!!!)
3.) Go to London more
4.) Move out
5.) Start a degree with the OU
6.) Continue saving
I figure number 1 doesn't technically count, so I've made 6 this year...
So yeah, since my last update I've been doing the usual of getting drunk, hanging out with my friends and working. I've also been experiencing a whole lot of car trouble - I had to go about a month without a working car! I got rescued by the RAC 4 times ( ), on one of those times the cambelt snapped on my little clio I've bought another car now though, so I'm currently the proud owner of 3 cars, 2 of which don't work!
I also got a new tattoo
I also went to Fabric in London for the first time - which was full of awesome, these are stupid pics, but hey, you get the idea:
(hopefully those will re-size properly - it appears they didn't, if you want to see me in the photo's you'll have to look in my pics)
Ok, I think that's enough reading for now - I hope everyone is ok and that you guys had a great new year
