Oh Dear

Oh dear, despite all of my aims for the new year I have failed. So I thought I would do a post about how awfully I am doing at sticking to my new years resolutions after a full two months. 

1. My highly aspirational first resolution was to blog twice a week. FAIL, unbelievable fail. I got caught up in moving back to university and then I was sucked up by lectures, dissertations and a lot of netflix, more specifically gossip girl. 
2. Secondly was to drink more water. I am a tea girl, I love tea. (strong with half a sugar) But tea isn't so great for the colour of my teeth or hydration due to the diuretic which makes me need to pee about 20 minutes after finishing my mug. Although I have bought a lovely water bottle to cary round with me, making my water more accessible, I find myself emptying a full bottle and replenishing it and ignoring it. 
3. Clearing out. Again another astronomical fail, over the last two months I have accumulated more things that I neither need or sometimes even want. At present there is a H&M bag hanging on the back of my door, in it are two dressed I bought didn't like and meant to take back, the receipt says Jan 5th, this happens to me so much because I hate taking things back nd I forget to everytime. I desperately need to get all of my clothes out and look at them and throw 80% of them away or give them to charity. My hoarding tendencies have been exacerbated by moving to university. I have clothes here, at my parents, at my boyfriends all places that I am at so frequently that I like to keep things there so I buy doubles of things I like and leave them in these 'key' locations in my mind. The buying of doubles is also extended to candles which is often more painful on my student bank balance. 
4. Wearing less make up, this has been the most difficult, I sit down at my dressing table thinking I'm only going to tesco so jus tinted moisturiser and mascara then I get a little bit excited and before you know it I have a full face of make up on like I'm going on a crazy night out clubbing. Glitter, contour, the full lot. So a fail on this front too. 

After listing all of these failures I feel a renewed burst of commitment to at least conquer one of these in the remaining 10 months of the year. I'll post an update in another few months to solidify the fact that I am still failing.
