My adventures of 2014 so far!


I must admit this post is a little belated as i've been so busy dealing with lots of exciting changes in my life. I'm not one of those people that will set a 'New Year's Resolution', if i'm honest I think it's just a little clichéd, they're not normally SERIOUS goals and they never usually go to plan anyway, so what's the point in that? What I thought i'd do this year is something a little different. I decided I would think of one goal to complete by the end of the year, but it was to be something important and manageable.

Having finished university last year, it was obviously a plan of mine to kickstart my career in design. I was slightly torn between what I should set my goal as. Should it be 'starting my career' or 'getting a new car'? Both were important to me, of course they weren't equally as important but nevertheless they were both still important. I decided I couldn't choose between the two so said to myself that I would complete both by the end of 2014. This seemed like a good personal challenge to give myself.

The real reason i'm writing this post is because i've been feeling quite overwhelmed lately due to the fact that i've already completed both of my goals. Shocked? Yes, me too! It all happened within one month and was VERY unexpected to say the least. In early January, I received an email offering me a 6 month internship doing something absolutely amazing! I would be a Graphic Design and Marketing Intern! It sounded perfect and of course, I accepted the very generous offer straight away! Needless to say, I really love my new job and the fact that i'm beginning to live my dream in terms of my career.

A little later on in Janaury, I went to my nearest Suzuki branch to just 'have a look' at the new Alto SZ. What I didn't expect that day was to be leaving the dealership having put a deposit down on a brand new Suzuki Alto SZ! I've now had the car for nearly one week and i'm absolutely loving it. It's a gorgeous car to drive and looks super pretty! (See photo below!)

So having completed two of my goals for 2014 within the first month, I almost feel like I should set myself one more (yes, I like to keep challenging myself!) Having been with my boyfriend for four years this coming April, we're wanting to get our own place so that is definitely the next big thing for 2014 hopefully! Just need some luck to come our way in terms of money. Fingers crossed!


(Please ignore my face. It often goes a bit stupid-looking when i'm very excited about things like a brand new car! Who can blame me, right?!)

Hope your 2014 is going as well as mine is so far!
