This Week In Fashion, New Years Eve and Resolutions

Happy New Years Eve!!!!  This was another short week at work, I didn't go in on Monday and we were off today.  We were actually supposed to go in but at the last minute one of the bosses decided to give us the day off.  Since it's New Years Eve, it's only fitting that I should post some New Years Resolutions, but these are things I'm always trying to do anyway, ha ha!  What are yours?
  • I've been pretty good with my money lately but since my two big trips are coming up I am going to try to buy only things I really need.  I already know this won't happen, but I'm going to try my hardest!
  • TRY to eat healthier and finally start working out (aka the resolution that pretty much everyone makes and only a small number keep). I think I'm going to get the Lose It App for my iPad so I can keep track of stuff, I don't want/need to lose any weight, so I'm going to do the "maintain my weight" option :)
  • Try to be more outgoing and stop being so shy (I know I seem wild and crazy on the blog, but in person I am sooo quiet...unless I'm with family and friends)!
  • Find a better place for blog photos/maybe force someone to take pictures for me once in a while...this one is going to be hard but I'm so sick of my stupid closet photos, aren't you? So hopefully I can do this one.

And for fun, here are some great things that have happened to me in 2010:
  • Graduated from college and found a job in that same month,
  • the job started as freelance but I was hired full time after a few months.
  • Started this blog!
  • Made lots of new friends because of the blog
  • Made some new Harry Potter friends and am going on a trip with them next year
  • Went to the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I Premiere
  • Starting to get more confident in myself and less shy
I know 2011 will be even better!  What has happened to you this year?

UPDATE: Tamera has given me the Stylish Blogger award! I'm going to be a bad girl and not follow the rules XD (I know...shame on me)
1. Thank and link back to the person who awarded you this award
2. Share 7 things about yourself
3. Award 15 recently discovered great bloggers
4. Contact these bloggers and tell them about the award
So here are my (boring) seven things:  I'm a Harry Potter freak, I'm a graphic/web designer, I have social phobia, I love boys but am scared to talk to them, I am a REALLY picky eater, I have no New Years Eve plans, and I love jewelry but rarely wear it.


I always hate picking who to pass awards on to so erm...that is the part I'm not doing...so I did half the rules ;)

  4. It sounds like 2010 was a great year for you! Hopefully 2011 will be just as great or even better. That's great news about having found a job so quickly after graduation and that you still found time for your art.

    Happy New Year.

  10. You've had a pretty great 2010 - and it looks like you're on your way to doing big things in 2011 too. 2010 was the year that I finished all my research trips needed to write my dissertation - I'll miss the travel but no more months away from my husband and cats!!! So I've got a lot to celebrate!
