Here We Go!

So 2014, has come and gone and don't get me wrong it was an amazing year. So many memories, that I'll never forget. One of the biggest things that happened in 2014, for me, has to be seeing Beyoncé LIVE, for the first time, I've never been as awe-struck in my life. I also seen McBusted, which was a mega throwback to childhood, and possibly the most fun I've ever had at a concert. As well as the concerts, I spent a week in London, with one of my faves. It was my first time in London and it's definitely a place I'd love to live in the future. The year consisted of many fancy dress occasions, as every year should, Danny & Sandy being my favourite of 2014. Oh! I became a godfather too, that was very special.  My Dad & Brother hosted the National IHFA Open Day which was a prestigious moment for the whole family. A big change for me in 2014, was starting this blog, it's been tough and I've found it hard to manage, time wise, but I'm hearing great feedback from you guys, so I hope to keep it going for 2015.

The year of the Sheep has landed and I'm prepared to make this year, one that counts! I'm in the last few days of being a teen, which means it's time to get my act together. So I've decided a few resolutions are in order.

RESOLUTIONS?!?

So firstly.. in terms of my physical self... I want to be healthier, I'm not unhappy with my weight but I just want to live a healthier lifestyle and effectively prolong life in the long run. So along with eating healthy, I'm gonna get back to the gym/dancing, with hopefully at least three workouts a week. Ideally, I'd just like to be a little more toned in the torso, being an irish dancer, there's no issue with muscle content in my legs, but that involves the torso getting a little neglected at times, so I want to work on that!

Secondly, in terms of my virtual self, I hope to stick to blogging weekly, I want to pick a day, that I'll post on every week and bring some consistency to www.barrytaylordesign.blogspot.com. I plan to give the site a whole new branding very soon. As well as setting up a Facebook page for publicising my work in terms of blogging and designing. Here's the big one. I. WANT. TO. VLOG. I really want to become a vlogger, I love blogging but I love talking more, so hopefully without coming across arrogant or pretentious, I will make my way over to Youtube, which I'm very excited about!

Here's a few links to some vloggers, that have inspired me:

Finally, in terms of my mental self, I want to become more comfortable & confident in myself (I hope the vlogging will help that). I'm a very paranoid person and it's something I struggle with, so hopefully 2015 will bring a year of not caring too much about what other people think. I've been told many times, that I'm a people-pleaser and there's no denying it, I AM! I love making other people happy and sometimes I neglect the things I need to do, in order to do so. So in 2015, without being selfish, I'd like to think a little bit more about myself!


So that's all for this post, as always I'd love to hear some feedback. What's your resolutions for 2015? Have you broke any yet? Feel free to share this post and follow the blog! You can follow me on bloglovin also: https://www.bloglovin.com/barrytaylor
