Jubilee Year 2015

Well, so this phrase has been mentioned a lot together with SG 50. It's the start of something new and i thought that perhaps, i should begin with some resolutions (as cliche as it sounds).

I must admit though, that i'm not a keeper of resolutions because i'm quite a procrastinator. So i'll keep it simple.

1. Learn driving

Doubt it will happen this year though because it's a crazy school year. And i already have problems committing to ad-hoc appointments. Anyway, driving is pretty much a survival skill to get around NZ so i'll definitely get down to it!

2. Cut down on spicy food

Gastrics is a horrible thing and i need to take care of my weak stomach. It's better to have a healthy diet rather than dieting, and plain food can be quite comforting. Now that i'm ageing, i find myself becoming more health-conscious. Heh.

3. Save money

Which can also be translated to shopping less. Food and shopping are my biggest expenses so it's time to curb the splurge!

4. Be more adventurous

We only live once and i don't want to wait till sixty or at least when i've kids to try out things that i've always wanted. Skydiving's one of them! i want to challenge my fear of heights and be a risk-taker while i'm still not that young. Oh, and this includes wearing brighter prints and colours. People have been commenting that i've too many black clothes and dresses.

5. Be a better person

I know this is really broad but i want to be a better person in general. To be more positive and have a bigger heart. To seek self-improvement and be a better me. So that one day, i can give myself a pat and say, well done! This isn't something that can be done in a year but as long as i'm a better person today than from yesterday, it's good enough for me.

2015, let's go!
