Happy New Year! Or not...

 I love New Year. For me it's the perfect time to re try and be the person I've always wanted to be.
 After reading some of the moans on Twitter, of people hating NYE and the concept of resolutions, I really couldn't believe it. I genuinely thought NYE was a time every one enjoyed, clearly I was drastically wrong!The main thing that bugged me was how people said that others who say that '2012 is my year' are just fools and will give up after a couple of days. What's wrong with a bit of hope? Why has every one become this moaning and miserable generation, who can't see any joy in anything? It baffles me to think that I am one of the few people who look forward to a new start. I don't see that it has to happen just at the beginning of the year but it's more of an incentive, as you have a new year and a new start. It could almost be like a re-birth, starting again, trying to be the best you could be.

I won't be limited and bogged down with putting other people, (who want to make a change), down. There really is no need for it and there's definitely no need to insult people who think like that. It's hard to say that everyone's perfect, as that is impossible. Yet, surely it's a good thing that some of us want to change and want to do our best. I have so many new resolutions and I know I won't achieve all of them but there's no harm in dreaming.

My resolutions, for this new year coming up, are:

  • Lose weight
  • Cut down my alcohol intake
  • Be less aggressive
  • Go back to college
  • Sort my head out


  They're fairly simple and quite standard resolutions but for me they will all be life changing. I have finally found something that I can imagine doing for the rest of my life. I have found myself a career I really want to pursue and I really think I have a great shot at making it work. I want my own business so I am going to be getting all the training I possibly can.  I want to lose weight and cut down how much alcohol I drink, purely for health reasons. I have become a bit of a bloater and it's starting to get me down, (a lot). I think this might also be contributing to sorting my head out. I know diet has a massive importance with mental well being, so who knows, maybe I could be normal by the end of the year? I say normal very loosely, I know what's wrong with me and I know I need to do something about it. But it's not to talk about here. Being less aggressive comes with the sorting my head out. I find I'm getting so angry and fed up so quickly, but yet again, there is a reason.

 NYE can be pretty plop sometimes, especially when you're alone. Celebrating a new year alone is probably one of the worst things. Last year I was alone for the evening then with someone for 20 minutes then alone again. Because of this I got massively drunk and danced around my lounge all on my own. How tragic? Yes, completely. It made me realise though that I can be on my own and I don't need anyone else, albeit very, very sad!

Not only are my resolutions fairly standard, they are also achievable. So to all those who think resolutions and  New Year is a waste of time, you are entitled to an opinion, but please don't try and drag others down, just because we want to make a difference.
