Happy New 2012 Year!

Year 2011 has come to a close. Wow, the years really do fly by as you get older. One thing I can be proud of is my visit to Korea. If you read my last new year's post you'll know that this trip was really important to me. I wasn't going to let anything get in my way! Now that that's done and over with, I can start planning for next year's trip.....which will most likely be Korea again! Ha.

Aside from that much needed vacation, I'm glad I've accomplished other things along the way.

Reflecting back on my year 2011-

• I visited Korea for 3 weeks
• made new friends
• made more time for friends
• used my camera more to document parts of my life
• stayed active and attended the gym 4-5 days out of the week
• continued my interest in school
• pursued a different job opportunity and got the job
• slowly cut out processed foods
• started juicing and eating more raw vegetables
• got a new car
• enjoyed weekly sushi dates
• ate out less and cooked more at home
• stuck to eating smaller portions
• discovered more blogs/vlogs to add to my favorites
• used more of a positive mindset
• discovered Adele
• reminded myself to not depend on others as they can be unreliant
• less is more
• found interest in other hobbies
• received a nice painting
• saved money by cutting down on my shopping
• got familiar with my kpop before (and after) visiting Korea
• fell in love with shellac nails
• realized that I wore my croc shoes 95% of the time
• went hiking for the first time
• didn't cut my hair at all this year in attempt to grow it out faster
• started buying produce from my local farmer's market
• changed the name of my blog (so unexpectedly and without any notice...*sorry*)
• became a video game nerd again
• Got hooked on Mad Men and use that show for inspiration when picking out work clothes
• visited the northern part of Arizona such as Sedona and the Grand Canyon

For 2012 I hope to visit Korea again along with some other smaller destinations. I really don't have any new year resolutions because things that I wish to achieve are done right then and there. There's no waiting for a new year, month or week. I like to just start now.
