New Years Resolutions

The year is quickly coming to an end.. already?! Time sure has flown! I feel like summer just ended yesterday. Not to mention that winter break feels like 2 days long. But as we all know, the new year brings new resolutions. Take a minute to think back to a year ago and what you promised yourself you would do differently in the year 2013.... 95% of people most likely have not fulfilled their 2013 new years resolution. I think often New Years Resolutions are made into a big deal and are perhaps goals that are almost unreachable and we turn our dreams into a resolution to make it seem more realistic but when it boils down to it, it is simply unreachable. A solution to this would be to make a few small goals. Instead of making your resolution " I want to lose weight" make it smaller and reachable; "I want to losses 20 pouds by summer time".. "I want to be in bed by 11:00 every school night with all my homework done" is a great and realistic resolution as well. Just sit back and think about something you want to change in  your life and make is a realistic goal.

Snow Day

Happy Wednesday! Wednesday can be a relief because your halfway through the week. This week has flown by, and I can thank mother nature for that! I guess you could say that I was blessed with a 5:30 am call from school and about 2-3 inches of snow? SNOW DAY.  Being the first snow day of the year, I was determined to be productive and get some things done! I began the day staying all snuggled up in bed and watching National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. Although not exactly productive, definitely worth it! (A classic Christmas movie and I watched it for the first time this morning?!) I then got up and tackled piles and piles (2 weeks worth) of laundry. I don't re-ware a lot of my clothes in a 3-4 week span so it doesn't really get to me that I don't do my laundry daily (sure does get to my mom though!). I then did some Christmas Pinterest-ing. I found some really cute cookie and gift ideas. To continue the holiday spirit my mom and I bought up ALL (I mean 10 bins!) the Christmas decorations from the garage. My mom gave me the go ahead to decorate the house how I waned to decorate it. I then sat down for family dinner and enjoyed some of mom's homemade baked ziti! Yum! So, now I sit here on this Tuesday night (yes, a night before-kinda-blog post) about to complete some school work the snuggle back into bed and perhaps watch another Christmas movie...
-I love to know that people are reading and enjoying my blog, so comment below any thoughts, ideas, favorite Christmas movies, ant interesting Christmas pins, etc.
P.S- Look for a post on Friday about all things Christmas!
XOXO

Blogging 

I am beyond excited to start blogging, but even more excited to get my blog up and running! As we all have experienced from joining any social network, starting up an account and following people is perhaps the hardest step. Although it can be challenging at times, I am very anxious to learn how to format and change fonts and backgrounds on my blog. The ability to change your account in the click of a button is just so exciting! Please follow me and comment below any tips you have for a starting blogger!
