2016 New years resolutions

Hey! I hope your having a great 2016 so far! I only got to writing this post now but I wanted to write (type) about my new years resolutions. I never usually made them, they would be something like "be kind" and resolutions like this I found pointless and I preferred to this year make more than one resolution, make them achievable and more precise! I also made a video on my youtube channel on my new years resolutions so if you want to watch that there  will be a link at the bottom of this post, hope you enjoy!

 The main reason I wanted to make resolutions this year, was because I wanted something to be proud of when the year ends, something to look back on and think, yes I did that! The other reason is because one of the things I received for Christmas was the 'Sprinkle Of Glitter Diary 2016' So Louise Pentland's calendar, however it's much more than just a calendar, I spoke more about it in my video!
Here are my resolutions (can I say the word "resolutions" again?! haha.).

1)To do more yoga.
I love yoga! I find it so calming, relaxing, and generally amazing, however last year I found that I didn't have enough patience to do it! I discovered the channel 'yogawithadrienne' on youtube last year, and I tried out some of her videos, however I couldn't zone myself out and complete just one video! Adrienne however, as if she could sense that I wanted to do more yoga, throughout January she created a "30 days of yoga challenge" where she uploads a video every day, of a yoga session for 30 days throughout January, I've started, I actually started quite late on the 3rd so I had a few videos to catch up on, but now I'm all caught up and enjoying it so much; so it's never to late to start! Before I was so lazy and couldn't get of my laptop, and I didn't have enough patience for just a twenty minute video, as mentioned before, but now I can complete a whole hour of yoga, or half an hour or twenty minutes, Adrienne uploads videos of a variety of minutes and no matter at what level you are at, the video will always be up your path.I find myself looking forward to a new video every day!I know yoga is something I want to carry on for a very long time! It was a good start for this resolution!

2) To drink more water and herbal tea.
I love herbal tea, but sometimes I just forget to drink it,it is very beneficial, and I just want to drink it a lot more often. Water I also forget to drink, I find myself sometimes going without water for most of the day which is really bad! It is important to stay hydrated, and drink two litres of water a day, I'm of to a shaky start at this one, but I'm picking up.


3)To push myself to do more things out of my comfort zone, aka say yes to more things (good).
I find that sometimes I don't believe in myself as much as I should and I put down opportunities that inside I know I really would like to do,I want to make 2016 a year which I say yes more.

4)Get myself more involved in drama productions/ acting opportunities.
Last year I got myself involved in our school performance of Macbeth, it was also put out as a public performance in our cities main theatre, I played Ross, and I had quite a lot of lines, it wasn't necessarily a big part compared to Macbeth, but for me it was the biggest part I have ever played! I love drama so much, and this year I want to take part in many more productions, and I actually would like to audition for something outside of school as well.

5)Last but not least; Make my youtube "tip top", however I talked about that on my actual youtube channel, here I want the resolution to be, make my blog "tip top" as I want to post regularly, every week, with fresh, interesting content for you readers!
