Did I Achieve my 2012 Goals?

So each year I set myself sort of a "To-Do List" for the coming year. I usually fail miserably, and always write up on the blog with how well Ive done. What better way to end 2012 than to see how well Ive done?..or not as the case may be!

1. Pass 1st year of uni 

Done, Yey!

2. Finish decorating my bedroom

Yes, apart from I need a nice bedside lamp...but we can still cheat and say yes.       

3. Learn how to make a Sunday dinner.

Not really, I make lovely bangers and mash though. Just need to get the roast beef down to a tea.

4. Give David an amazing surprise for his 21st

Yes! I took him to London for the weekend and we went to the Capital Summertime Ball and Wicked :)

5. Rejoin the gym and actually start going at least once a week.

Big fail, I rejoined and went TWICE. I give up on the gym I hate it.

6. Get stuck in to uni work, stop being lazy and actually attend lectures!

Hmm. No. I tried for the first few months back at uni but let it slip recently.

7. Find my driving theory pass certificate

Nope. Its gone forever :(

8. Pass my driving test!

Another big fat no.

9. Make cupcakes to fill my cupcake tree

No! I cant find my little tree so havent been able to do this one

10. Visit Grandma much more often

Yes and no, I do see her more now which is good.

11. Do youtube videos more consistently

Yes! Ive been doing at least one a week for over a year now.

12. Take more of an interest in fashion and accessorising my outfits

Taking an interest, yes. Funding it, no.

13. Watch The Sopranos with David

Nope :( And I bought the boxset as well we just never have the time.

14. Watch all of The OC again from beginning to end

Not this year, Ive been way too obsessed with Gossip Girl instead.

15. Do something really good and memorable for my 21st

I just had a lovely night out with all my nearest and dearest, so yeh it was really good!

16. Go on holiday with the girls (eventually)

Yep, Ibiza was AMAZING. Cant wait to go back.

17. Finally watch the Bourne Trilogy

Watched the first one, so 1/3 of this done.

18. Go back to America

Ha, I wish!

19. Get a job

A big YES finally!

20. Ride a rollercoaster

Unfortunately yes, it was awful!

21. Read at least 10 books, preferably on my kindle or ones I already own

Ive read six. Which sounds like nothing over a year but its good for me.

22. Grow my hair without caving in and getting loads chopped off

Yeeeeees! My hair i supper long now for me (past nipple length haha). But it definately needs a trim. Just not loads off :) 

23. Learn how to do a fishtail braid

Yep, long hair = better fishtails.

24. Watch The Godfather films

Nope.

25. Drink more water, anything would be an improvement as I dont drink it at all now

I was better at this over summer, not so great now but better than I used to be.

26. Get dressed up and enjoy an evening on Newcastle Quayside with David

No! Skint students cant afford this.

27. Learn how to make bread

Another no, oops!

28. Save up and make plans to go to New York

The plans are there, the saving...not so good.

29. Meet a friend through blogging

Nope :( Maybe if I actually blogged a bit more though.. 

30. Visit a city in the UK Ive never been to before

Yep, I went to Manchester in March. Really loved that city :)

31. Get my ears pierced

Oops, no! Wimp!

32. Sleep earlier and get up earlier

Failed this too...Im practically nocturnal 

33. Watch more Audrey Hepburn movies aside from Breakfast at Tiffany’s

Ive bought and seen Roman Holiday so I did this one!

34. Become less shy

Definitely, Im still very shy but much more confident than I used to be.

35. Get my parents to meet Davids parents

Still hasnt happened, beyond a joke.

36. Visit a new country

Yep, Ibiza

37. Buy a stranger a drink in a bar just to be nice

Haha, yes actually.

38. Make genuine friends with the people I know at Uni

Sort of.

39. Make a gingerbread house from scratch

No :( I so want to do this.

40. Try every Lush Bubble Bar

Most of them, at least the scents I like. So I'd tick this one off.

41. Get my eyebrows threaded

Nope, looks too painful!

42. Get a spray tan

43. Stay back in Room 105 of The Langdale Hotel again.

I wish...maybe one day.

44. Buy my Mam flowers for no reason

No! Again Im the most skint haha

45. Do one of Jamie's 30 Minute Meals

Nope but I got his book for Christmas so I intend to!

46. See a show in London

Yes, Wicked. Its amazing.

47. Visit my friend Amy in London

Visited London, but Amy moved back home anyway so this didnt really make sense anymore.

48. Do one full review a week on my blog

Sadly a massive fail. I miss blogging almost every day.

49. Get a facial

No but I still really want to.

50. Take my mam somewhere for a beauty treatment

Nah we havent done this yet, maybe for her birthday.

So Im  big fat failure haha, but did achieve most of the big important ones I guess. Now to think of what I want to do in 2013...
