So.. I'M BACK!

I took a long hiatus after two posts due to being SO busy with university work and not feeling in the right frame of mind to blog once/twice a week! I read back my last post which was from January and saw that I have created a list of things that I plan to have achieved by this time this year, so let's recap and see what I have achieved so far! 


''So the plan for 2013 is -
- Live at home in Essex with my mum and step-dad
- Get a job
- Learn to drive with my boyfriend's dad
- Hopefully pass my test by my birthday in July 
- Pass my first year of University
- The usual - tone up and eat healthier (I say this while munching on heroes!)
- Go on holiday to Italy with my boyfriend''

Judging by the check list, I have achieved a fair bit of what I set out to this year, which is actually quite encouraging! For starters, I am still living at home with my family and I am enjoying it, however, of course, at times I wish I had stayed moved out or lived on my own but I still don't feel like I would have been ready to set off by myself set. Secondly, I FINALLY HAVE A JOB. I have been working there for about 2/3 weeks now and it's long hours, late nights, occasionally rude customers and full air con but I'm really enjoying it and although it may be a smaller pay than my previous job that I was working on trying to get back, my colleagues are great and nearer my age and it feels awesome to be earning my own money again! This leads me to my next few points, for example, learning to drive my boyfriend's Dad. I haven't passed my driving test by my birthday like I was planning doing, as me being me, spent all my money and ran out after 3 lessons. However, I did pass my theory in May and am earning monthly so I will be starting up lessons again as soon as he has a slot for me! :) In addition, I am still an average sized, wobbly girl but I'm feeling pretty comfortable in myself and my skin and the moment, albeit I probably need to eat healthier and work out more but hey! I may even join a gym now that I can afford membership! OoOoOoOo Ria don't make promises you can't keep.. haha! Penultimately, I had the BEST holiday in Italy with my boyfriend, Jamie. We eat loads, saw loads and chilled loads! (I will upload a post shortly after this one ALL about it!) and finally, I PASSED MY FIRST YEAR AT UNIVERSITY!!!!! with 2 firsts and 2 2:1's - overall a high 2:1! And I'm over the moon, all of my friends passed and I'm so proud of each of every one of them! Looking forward to my second year now! Although, I still have 2 months until I start again.. roll on 30th September!

Anyway, I'll quit the rambling! 
Thanks for reading and I hope your new year resolutions or personal achievements have been successful or are going well, see you guys soon.
