They say, "You learn something new everyday". So here is a list of all the things I have learned this year:
1. It's hard to type with a band-aid.
2. I am allergic to Aspirin.
3. Certain situations in your life help shed light on who your true friends are.
4. There really is such a thing as a stupid question.
5. It's hard to run your own business, especially by yourself.
6. I am addicted to skinny jeans, cotton candy, pinkberry, and Halls's gingerale cough drops.
7. I am very sympathetic even at times when I shouldn't be. At least I donated to some awesome charities this year...
8. I am really in love, and he really loves me back. :)
9. Costco hotdogs are the best.
10. More makeup techniques, tips, etc.
11. I am very impatient. :(

13. I spend so much money on things I don't need.
Things I want to accomplish next year:
1. Learn to be more patient and forgiving.
2. Control my spending habits.
3. Get a new place with the BF, either a townhouse or a small house.
4. Focus more on my photography.

What a wonderful reflection post Nessa. I can relate to you on so many levels. I honestly love hearing people admit they're in love because amongst all the shit that happens in this world, nothing beats an experience like that and not being able to go it alone :) And I admire your aspiration to become a mother. The most challenging position of all, yet one of the most rewarding. And I agree with your #1 thing to accomplish next year. I definitely need to be MORE patient, hah.
i've been thinking about trying to accomplish the same stuff as your #2,6, and 7! i've been slacking on gym and on other recreational hobbies because i spend too much time on makeup lol. i too need to control my spending...at least on the makeup bit.

I think that this is a great post, Vanessa! All of our blog sistas should do this so we can learn from each other and help each other on next year's aspirations. I'm going to do the same post! You're so inspirational!!
I want to be a Mother too. BAD.
reminds me to post my year in recap on my blog now. hee hee...i totally agree with you about drizzlegold...i <3 that stuff hee hee! happy new year!
You want to be a mommy!! That's sweet.
My accomplishement list is very similar to yours! Definately spend less on Make Up, exercise more etc.
Hi,
I love your blog! I like that you are open to even low end brands :)
I just wrote a post in my blog detailing the Bath & Body Works semi-annual sale and what will be on sale each week, if you want to take a look.
Keep up the great work!
