New Years Resolutions 2017

As you may have noticed, this is the first post on my new blog. I used to own Katieswaytohappy, but I thought it was time for a change, so I started this brand new blog, where I can still share what I think and what I love, but on a blog that I am happy to write. I hope you like this blog because I do and I also hope you enjoy my new year's resolutions!

• Exercise - I never seem to keep exercising for a long amount of time. To be honest, I hate sport and I am not very good at it but I really do need to make a push at getting fitter because I have noticed small things like climbing stairs or running short distances puts me out of breath, which isn't good, as a flute player and singer and in any other capacity.
• Cutting down on my sugar intake - Ever since I started college, it has become increasingly easy to pop down to the co-op and buy food. Most of the time, it is doughnuts or sweets or fizzy drinks, as they are always on offer. I need to become more restrained and go for the healthier options, which will still fill me up but will also do me good.
• I have decided to give something up every month, for a month. So, for example, this month, I have given up coffee and alcohol. I don't really drink anyway, but I thought I would put that in as well anyway. It's very easy for me to drink a coffee whilst a work or sit in Costa with a gingerbread latte, so I thought I would change that and cut my coffee intake for the month completely. This year could be interesting, as some of the stuff I will be giving up is very hard to do, in my opinion, but that is exactly why I need to do it!
• Stop spending so much money and save some instead. Every month, I am going to save 15% of the income I earn, which will be different every month, as the amount of hours I work is changeable. For example, this month, I will be saving £32, approximately. If I did that every month to save up for something bigger, like my trip to Montreux, Switzerland, in the summer, that will come to quite a large amount because my hours increase a bit every month, as I can work extra shifts in holidays etc.
• REVISE! - I need to get into the habit of doing this again because all of my motivation disappeared during the summer, which is one of the reasons why I restarted my blog. I want to do well in my exams, and that is the way I can do it.

I hope your year is great and you stcik to what you said you would stick to! I sure need to! What are your resolutions?
