2015: A Year of Adventures

Indeed, new year's resolutions are labeled overrated. So let me tweak it a little bit by having a list of challenges for 2015:

1. Wake up early each morning. It all starts with this. There's so much we can do in 24 hours! So I figured, I have to challenge myself to wake up early to be able to do so much more with my day. And yes, this is a big challenge for me because everyone who knows me and who has lived with me knows that I AM NOT A MORNING PERSON AT ALL.
2. Be a YES Girl! I am a pretend adventurous person. I say pretend because there's so many things I'd like to do but never have the courage to actually take a leap. So I am saying yes to things I normally say no to. This year will be all about letting go of my hesitations and reservations. So I will have one big challenge for every month of this year and coming up this January... I'm going to go mountain climbing! Finally! (Will be posting this soon!) And let's not forget, Sam Smith Concert coming up! Patron tix, baby! (That I still have to pay for.) Because let's face it, if you don't do it now, when? Sometimes, there are no next times. *wink*
3. Travel. I think my family's joining me in this challenge. We'll be roadtripping this summer as a whole family! That's a first! So even if it's months away, I'm excited! Jo and I am also planning to go to Baler with our couple friends and I am challenging myself to book a ticket to anywhere this year.
4. Spend more time with friends. Because honestly, I worked my ass off last year and I haven't spent time with friends. My days were only spent with Jo Time, studying, work, sleep and more work. I realized that I need to spend more time with my friends this year. It's sad to see that everyone I talked to last year only have one sentence for me and I for them: I miss you.
5. Start saving. My boyfriend sent me a link of the 52-week challenge plus my bestfriend is doing it too. And let's not forget my friend who only cares who has a bigger paycheck. So YES! I accept this damn challenge! And because I'm already 22 and working for almost a year already so I think it is high time I have a growing savings account.
6. Start post-graduate education. Because I need direction and yes, I badly want to escape the corporate world. I'm excited to take MS in Clinical Psychology next term! Now I just need a fund.
7. Cut down on soda consumption. Yes, I am finally challenging myself to lessen my carbonated drinks intake. This is probably one of the hardest things I will have to deal with on a daily basis. My love for carbonated drinks will bring me death and well... diabetes in the not-so-far future.

So there you go. There's my list of challenges for 2015. We're young, we're smart, we're pretty (You have no right to complain. Ha!), we don't have all the time in the world. So 2015, give me all you got 'cause I am ready for you!
