Inspired by Tanya Burr's "Things I Want to Do This Summer" I thought I would do a Winter version. I love setting myself goals and things to do so I want to try and do these things by the end of winter.
Read a book a month. So technically I should read at least 3 books this winter! When I was around 14 I used to read so many books and always read for at least half an hour before bed but now that I'm addicted to social media it takes me ages to finish a book. I've decided I'm going to turn my computer off by 10:30pm and read before I go to sleep. Reading always makes me calm down and helps me sleep better so I really want to get back into reading before bed this winter.
Keep active. I was really good with going to the gym at least 3 times a week when I lived in Brisbane and now that I'm back at my family home I had to cancel my gym membership because I'm an hours drive away. I'm thinking of joining one of the gyms here but want to give it a bit of time before I join so I can save some money and know my work roster.
Make plans with a friend at least once a week. I'm really bad with making plans with friends and can sometimes go weeks without seeing anyone other than my family! I really want to catch up with someone at least once a week so we can have great catch ups and have a break from my family.
Blog more! I've been seriously slacking on blogging these last few months and I miss it! I want to regular write posts and get into the blogging world more. I going to aim for one post a week so we'll see how that goes by the end of the season!
Find new makeup favourites. I've got a lot of amazing makeup products that I don't use often because I like to stick with my all time favourites. So I've decided I'm going to pull the stuff I haven't been using to the front of my makeup drawers and try to use them during winter. I used the Benefit They're Real Liner after about 3 months of not using it and I've forgotten how much I love it so hopefully I'll re-discover other forgotten products.
Make more Youtube/blogging friends. Hardly any of my friends understand the concept of the whole Youtube and blogging thing and don't like beauty stuff as much as I do so the only people I can really talk to about it are friends that I make online through Youtube, Blogging, Twitter and Instagram. And I've found most beauty girls aren't in Australia so it will be great to get to know people from all over the world!
Eat healthier! I've really been struggling with eating fruit, veggies and healthy foods lately and I really want to crack down and eat healthy foods. I want to try and get the healthy eating onto my family as well because I know that they know they aren't happy with what they're eating. I'm going to try and find lots of healthy recipes and try new foods, and coconut water!
I hope you enjoyed this post and comment below on things that you would like to do this Winter/Summer!
