Happy New Year!!

 So, the end of 2020!

What a year it was.... This year has felt like a lifetime. Although this year was very sad and challenging for everyone, I have defiently achieved many things that I am proud of!! In today's blog, I'll say three things that I achieved in 2020 and my new year resolutions!

What I achieved:

1. I've defiently learnt a lot about myelf this year! I've found out who I am and have learnt to be me! I've found out that I need my friends more than I did. When I could'nt see them over lockdown, I realised how much I missed them and how lucky I am to have them! I have also learnt that being me means that I should'nt care how I look 24/7 and that my friends and family will love me no matter how I look! For some reason, teenage girs tend to judge people a lot? I'm defiently still working on my confidence around new people but I've made a huge step of progress this year! Starting this blog, for instance, was a step out of my comfort zone, but I'm having fun writing already!
2. I've learnt how to control my anxiety! This was defiently my biggest achievement as with the help of my family, I learnt that even if my anxiety can't just go, I can control it! I know that loads of teenage girls have anxiety but until I understood that that was true, I did struggle with it. Anxiety doesn't just go but I'm defiently more experienced with how I can control it.
3. I've started my GCSE courses without completely freaking out! Now if you're not British, you probably have no idea what I'm talking about! (If anyone is even reading)! They are basically exams that Brits take when they are 15 or 16. I was pretty stressed about starting my courses because I know that the grades I get have an impact on my future but pretty soon I realised that there wasn't really anything to worry about! I've had good results so far so I just need to CHILL!!

My new year resolutions:

So I read somewhere that you should only have three resolutions so you might actually complete them! This is defiently true!! I usually make about ten and then can only remember one by the end of the year!! So here they are:

1. I want to make this blog my happy spot! From talking to other bloggers, I've learnt that blogs take time to start up so I want to percevere on with this to try and make it successful! I want this place to be for me to be ale to be me!!
2. I want to speak to grandparents more. The pandemic has resulted in me not being able to see them as frequently as I usually would. I know that isolation has been hard for them so I want to make it easier for them by speaking to them frequently.
3. I want to expand my baking skills by making loads of different things! I think this would be a good thing to do if I go into lockdown at any point!!

So that's it! If you are reading, I would love you to share with me your resolutions or things that you are proud of that you achieved in 2020 in the comments below!

lots of love,
