New Year's {Resolutions}

This year, I have only three resolutions:

1. Lose 40 pounds by eating healthy and exercising 5x/week.

2. Complete at least 30 more items in my 101 in 1,001 challenge.

3. Travel to at least one new place.

I know that I can accomplish these things. I have a few things already planned, but I know that I will find a way to complete all of this. I am filled with hope for 2014, and I am confident in myself and my abilities.

I already began my weight loss journey in 2013, and while I lost only a few pounds (only to regain them over Christmas... whoops) I have been losing again since then. I have been walking at least 10,000 steps per day and plan to continue to do so. I plan on incorporating running, strength training, dance, and hopefully some yoga/pilates in order to achieve my goal and become a healthier, happier person.

I made a list of 101 in 1,001 - 101 things to complete in 1,001 days - last September and I plan to continue working on that list. I have many things that are half-way or almost complete, and many things yet to do. I hope to knock out at least 30 of my goals in the upcoming year.

Lastly, I would like to travel somewhere new. Even if it's in California. I've been itching to travel but not having the time or money, but I will find a way because there is so much that I long to see and do.

I will find my way to happiness in the upcoming year.

What are your resolutions for 2014?

101 in 1,001: My Signature Scent

As mentioned in prior posts, I have created a list of 101 things to do in 1,001 days (my list ends midway through 2016) and one of those things was to find my signature scent - and I did!

The brand is called Lollia, and I actually enjoyed almost all of their scents, but I was particularly taken to Wish. According to Lollia's webpage, it smells of vanilla bean (a long-time favorite scent of mine), rice flower, sugar pastille, jasmine and sugar cane, as well as ylang ylang and amber woods. It smells soft, sweet, and delicate; I adore it.

My mom bought me the hand creme as a gift, which I love. My hands are so soft! Which, during Autumn, and with winter approaching, makes me so happy.

And look! The pattern on the box & side of the perfume is so adorable. I love it and I'm so excited to have found my signature scent.
