Plans For 2017!

Hello Lovlies! 

So it has come to that time of year again were we all sit down and have think about our 'New Years Resolutions' (which normally last until the end of January!), I do really like to set myself goals at the start of the year and try my best to stick to them. A lot of my goals my seem quite generic but they are all very person to me! 

So here are my plans for 2017! 

Get Moving!

Now again , this is probably the most popular New Years resolution that everyone makes because who doesn't want to be fit and look in shape! For half the year i have really been struggling with my back which has stopped me dancing and exercising to my full potential. I have really noticed a different in how i feel and look and i really enjoy working out! So for 2017 i am going to set me set the challenge to be happy with how i look and feel!
 I am going to try and stick to a set schedule with the gym as well as planning meals in advance. I don't want to go on any diets but with university i sometimes dont eat enough or the right things but the amount of calories i burn off through dancing/exercising. I really love looking on Pinterest for inspirational photos and quotes but some maybe be unrealistic for me so I'm just going to work on being the best version of me!

Graduate!

As you may or may not know, i am currently in my 3rd and final year of univeristy which means ill hopefully be graduating in 2017 (For real this time! No Disney graduation)! My goal is to be super organising and on time with deadlines which has worked out for me so far! but now is the time that i really need to knuckle down and get my head in the books! Pretty stationary always helps me! So by the end of 2017 I will have a Bachelor Of Arts Honour In Dance (Fingers crossed!)

Snap! Snap! Snap!

I absolutely love capturing memories so i years to come i can look back and relive my adventures! I have been saving up for a new camera (Olympus Pen hopefully!) so in 2017 i really want to work on getting more into photography and taking high quality photos! I have recently been doing some photography in university and have really enjoyed capturing dancers moving.
Hopefully this will also mean better photos for this blog!!

See The World!

This year i really caught the travel bug and its just made me want to see more of the world! So in 2017 i want to visit as many places that i possibly can! Nothing has yet been confirmed but there are a few plans in the works. I really want to visit a couple cities in Europe! I am also hoping to go to Georgia to visit my American Bestie Amber! And maybe Australia! I am just going to try and sit as much in as i possible can afford! Oh and i NEED to visit DisneyLand Paris! Has to be done!

Do Things For Me!

I have made the decision that this is the year that i do things for ME! 2016 as for many was a very up and down year for me and just want to get rid of all that negative energy and really look after myself and enjoy the single life! I am going to try and work a little less than i have been doing so i have time to do more of what i love and have new adventures! Hopefully this will also reflect on my blog! I want to make content that make me happy! I am also going to try and designate one night a week where i do no university work and really pamper myself!Oh and i really want to go see the 1975!That needs to happen!


Make 2017 A Year To Remember! 
Most of all i want to be able to look back on 2017 and say 'That was a great year!' , i am going to do everything that i can do to make that happen! Yes i may make mistakes but its what i do after them that counts!

Thank you for reading!

Hope you are all have had a Lovely Christmas
& have a Happy, Healthy New Year!

Reflecting Back On - 2015

Hello there lovelies!

So today i thought in todays post i would reflect back 2015 and share with you some of the highlights, lessons i learnt and whether i met my new years resolutions 2015 ?? So grab a hot chocolate and enjoy! 

New Years Resolutions! 

Now every year we set ourselves little goals for the year which usually make it till February (in my case anyway), so last January i was determined to set myself a few resolutions that i want set myself for the year that were both challenging and achievable. 

Raising Money for Charity- One my biggest goals for 2015 was to do more for charity, i have always done quite a lot of charity work in the past but since starting university i found that i wasn't as committed as i had been in the past but the passion was still there so i knew i had to plan something for 2015. I wanted to do something completely off my own back and be as independent as possible and am i glad i did because i don't think i have ever been so proud of myself because of the final outcome. I decided that i was going to organise a charity night so once i had the idea my head starting filling with idea i was emailing different charities and business's to get the ball rolling. I knew i wanted to make it as fun as possible which is where i came up with the fancy dress idea, i ended up going as Alice In Wonderland but there were some pretty cool and inventive costumes. 

At the end of the night with ticket sales, donations and raffle tickets i ended up raising just over £1000! I had chosen to split the money between two different charities that are very close to my heart as well as to my friends and family's. These two charities were Claire House Children's Hospice which is an amazing hospice that looks after terminally ill children and once looked after one of my dear friends and the second charity being Macmillian Cancer Support, i have lost too many loved ones to Cancer so i couldn't think of two better charities, both of which rely heavily of donations. I think i may write a post going into more in depth information about the actual organising of the event so let me know if you are interested in hearing more about how to put a charity night together.

                            

                   

Falling In Love

This was probably the most unxpected part of the year, at the beginning on the year i met a lovely young man and straight away we hit it off we straight away we came best friends very quickly. I had never had a boyfriend or had anyone really take interest in me so i was very nervous to rush into anything, so we got to know each other and become very close friends and we finally made it office in summer. This has got to be the highlight of my year as i didn't think it was possible to feel this way towards someone (cheesy i know), but my advice to someone who hasn't found their special someone yet all i could say is never lose hope and they will find you when your least expect it.

'Dreams Come True'

So if you have read my previous blog post you will know that in 2015 i applied to work in Disney World Florida in Summer 2016, which meant i had to travel down to Essex and then London for numerous interviews. Just before Christmas i got the amazing news that i was accepted onto the programme!! it was the best Christmas present i could ask for and I am extremely excited to see what wonders Disney holds for me this year!. 

Living in the moment 

I tried my very best to make 2015 a year to remember and make the most out of every day which meant spending as much time with my friends and family as possible. I got to visit the beautiful Cyprus once again, go Ladies Day races in Chester, watch Les Miserables in the West End as well making the most out of my time in university and enjoying the experience as much as i can even if it wasn't always the most enjoyable experience during deadlines.  

Believing In Me!

Last year i could see a massive difference in myself and i starting believing in myself a lot more even if a did doubt myself more than once, whether this was because i now had someone there for me and who always believed in me but either way i would love to continue to keep believing in my abilities so that i can achieve anything i set my mind too. 

So did you achieve your New Years resolutions in 2015?

And what are your new set of goals for this year?

I hope it is a Happy & Healthy 2016 for you all,

Please let me know as I'm still trying to think of my goals for this coming year!

Thanks for reading lovelies 

and please come back again soon

Lots Of Love

Introducing Me!

Hello there lovlies! Happy New Year

For my first post i thought i would tell you a litre more about me and why i made the decision to start blogging. My name is Holly i am currently a 19 year old Dance university student living in the North West of England. Dance is one of my biggest passions in life and it always has been for as long as i can remember, which is why i decided to study it in university, I'm currently half way through my second year and I am loving it even if it can be very rough and tiring at time. 

I absolutely love reading through beauty, fashion and lifestyle blogs as well as spending too many hours on Youtube! I love everything beauty, makeup and sparkly!. 

Last year i received some very exciting news, and that news was that i found out that summer this year i will be working in Disney World Orlando Florida for around 3 months. I am complete Disney obsessive and i am so excited to live in Orlando. 

Which leads me onto why i created this blog! In the past i have tried out blogging but i found i could not fully commit but i really want to make this the year that i stick at it. I am going to be writing about a mixture of topics on here from Beauty, Dance, Disney, lifestyle!

So thank you for visiting my blog and come back each week to check out my new posts! 

If you have any requests for posts then please let me know! 

See you real soon! 

Love 

Holly
