We all have them (resolutions), but rarely do we accomplish them. That doesn't prevent me from coming up with a list and see if I get any of them done by the years end. Although this upcoming year is slightly different than the others. I will not be going to school, so that "make the dean's list" resolution isn't going to be part of it, although, last year one read "graduate in December", that my friends got crossed off, I graduated :).

As I stated in a previous post, I really don't know what will happen in 2014. I don't have much of a plan other than apply for a job, hoped to get hired, and then well, whatever happens. It's so abstract that I feel that a lot of my New Year's Resolutions will get accomplished for the first time ever.

So here they are my 2014 New Year's Resolutions.

• Go to the gym almost daily. Minimum of 4 days a week. (I have to attend 2 weddings and be part of the wedding party in 1). Also for health reasons.


• Stop constantly checking my Twitter feed when I’m with friends.


• Stop having my iPhone with me while eating dinner with my family.


• Get more sleep. I think being in college for the past 5 years has caused my sleeping patterns to be not normal. Running on 3-5 hours of sleep just isn’t the best way to live my life. I’m going to shoot for 8 hours. I’ll be turning 25-years-old in 2014 and coffee and no sleep is taking a toll.


• Begin writing a book. I love books, I love reading and admire all the writers that publish e-books and then go on to be best selling authors. I think/believe that I have it in me to be a novelist. Will it be good? I hope so.


• Finally commit to getting that tattoo I’ve wanted for like the 5 years. Either the Egyptian Hieroglyphic Ankh (key of life) or the nerd in me really wants Harry Potter’s Deathly Hallows symbol.


• Drink less coffee and more tea. I know I drink entirely too much coffee. I always claim i have antioxidants, but the caffeine is quite outrageous. I still want to keep my gold member status at Starbucks so Iced Passion Tea or Hot.


• Cook more at home and less drive-thru. I actually enjoy cooking, do I enjoy the mess that happens when I cook? No way! But it's a lot healthier than hitting up the drive-thu even though it's very convenient. I get sick more often then not when I eat out too much, I suspect because of all the msg in the food.


• Dedicate more time to this very blog! I want more readers, more feedback, more of everything. I want to take it to the next level. I write about my life on here, albeit a small part of it. My niche: My lifestyle. I don't want just a fashion blog, just a travel blog, just a cooking blog. It's family, friends, and me and everything that happens in a 20-something post grad and the struggles and how I live in the city.

There you have it guys, my 2014 resolutions! Here's to a big, questionable, unpredictable, and my year to turn a quarter century.

Happy New Years readers/followers. Hope you keep reading my blog and follow my life.

Until next time,
Felipa xoxo
