2021 New Year Resolutions

Happy New Year! 

Let me just say thank you next, 2020, and hello 2021! 2020 has been a year like no other, an emotional roller coaster ride filled with more downs than ups, but Im thankful to have made it through this year still relatively healthy + covid free and so are my close family and friends. Truly that is all I can ask for. Now for 2021, Im hopeful for the world to beat this pandemic and for life to resume normally. 

For the new year I like to think about my resolutions even though Im part of the 90% who doesn't always follow through with them. lol Im not going to put too much pressure on myself but I like being conscious of the areas that I can improve on whether its healthy habits, personal development, career growth, small changes, etc. 

Here are some of my new year resolutions for 2021:

1. Cook thirty new recipes - I have been really into baking lately and neglected my cooking skills. In 2021, I am aiming to cook more. 

2. Travel to one new destination (Japan, Bali, Cancun, etc) or a mini local adventure if its not possible. We will see with this one being that the pandemic is still ongoing but I really miss traveling with friends. 

3. Read ten new books - When I was younger I used to be an avid reader but these days I find it really difficult to settle down and spend my time reading with all the distractions around me. However, reading ten new books sounds doable. 

4. Develop a better skin routine - Ever since I discovered that I have seborrheic dermatitis on my face, I have struggled with finding products that work well on my skin without causing a red flare up. For 2021, I want to maintain a log of my skin condition and see what I can use to keep my skin condition under control. 

5. Try something new (Some potential ideas- make resin jewelry, make candles, grow vegetables, etc)

Theres a few more, but Im keeping this list relatively short. We'll check back on progress at the end of 2021!
