10 Ways To Stop Procrastinating!

Hi guys!

So, I've been procrastinating with a lot of things lately, including posting a "December Favourites" post (although to be honest there were some personal matters that distracted me as well) which is still under development. But, in view of the fact that I had planned to post something today, I decided to go for a quick and ready to use idea and basically republish a small part of a much longer post that I had written many months ago. I had long thought that it was too long to read and that my readers would probably get too bored to finish it, so I had wanted to break it down and republish this part for quite a while. I guess this was the perfect time as I was also inspired by my own procrastination habit.

The following guide is part of my post "All About Procrastination", that I had written way back in May 2015, which also included a brief description of procrastination, a list of reasons behind developing the habit and my personal experience dealing with procrastination. If you want to learn more about procrastination and about how it affected my personal life, I highly recommend that you give it a quick read.

My New Year's Resolutions (2016)!

Happy New Year Everyone!

  Every New Year's Eve, we look back on our experiences and the things that we have accomplished in the year that passed and we search for things that we can change and improve in the year to come. It is the perfect time to make a fresh start in various parts of ours lives and challenge ourselves to work on our imperfections.

And that is where deciding on our "New Year's resolutions" comes in.

I actually have a lot of ambitions for 2016, but here are 7 of my "New Year's resolutions":

1. Try new things and have an exciting adventure every single day.
Looking back on 2015, there were a lot of times when I felt that I was wasting my time and energy by sitting around and doing nothing. However, the older I get, the more I realise how much quicker each year passes and how life is too short to be wasting it away. From now on, I want to enrich my everyday life with optimism and enthusiasm and make use of the opportunities that lie ahead of me. Furthermore, I want to challenge myself to try as many fun and creative things and activities as possible.

What I Got For Christmas 2015!

Hi guys!

  I'm very excited as I'm writing this, because it's actually snowing outside! I guess some little kid's wish came true this year. Or maybe it could've been my own wish from childhood with a veeery delayed effect. I doubt that the snow will stick to the ground, but it sure is nice to have a snowy day during the festive season for once.

  Anyway, let us move on to the main topic of this post. This has been my first time blogging around Christmas time, so I wanted to follow along most of my fellow bloggers out there and try writing Christmassy posts. I noticed that this kind of blog post was quite popular among numerous blogs and so I thought I'd give it a go as well.

  I got some lovely presents this year, but most of the presents that I've included in this post are things I bought for myself with money that I was given on Christmas day.

Merry Christmas!

Hi guys!

  First of all, Merry Christmas to you all! I hope that you spent Christmas in a very happy and festive mood and that you had a great time, with your family, friends and/or significant other.

  So, since it was Christmas a few days ago, I thought I should post a little something to relay my wishes to you all. I also wanted to share with you how I spent Christmas Eve and Christmas Day and also show you some pictures that I took.

Christmas Eve:
★I woke up and basically spent the entire morning and afternoon on my laptop watching random videos on Youtube, mostly vlogmas videos that I had missed that past week.
★I spent the evening at home with my family. We watched "Home Alone" and had a wonderful dinner together.
★I baked a batch of Christmas sugar cookies, the recipe of which (click here to view it) I got from Zoella's blog. I always enjoy baking sweets but the best part about this recipe was getting to decorate them however I liked. I think they turned out pretty great. The designs I made were really cute and baking them was a very fun and creative activity for me.
★ After everyone else went to sleep I placed all of my presents under the Christmas tree and then made myself hot chocolate and relaxed on the sofa in a warm blanket, watching "Notting Hill" by myself.
