New Year, New Goals!!!

Hey girlie's!!!

Firstly Happy New Year too you beautiful, sparkling bunch!!! I love the start of a new year, it honestly feels like some sort of weight has been lifted to me, I feel anything negative can be left behind and everything can start all fresh and positive. Today I thought I would share with you all some goals I want achieve this year, I'm not calling them resolutions, just things that Id like to conquer and kick butt too ha ha.

Here we goooo....

Push Myself More!
Most of you don't know this but for the past 3 years I have suffered with Labyrinthitis, I don't want to talk about it too much in this post but I'm happy to do a separate post if you'd like to learn more about it, Labyrinthitis also has its fair share of side effects and the one that effects me quite alot is... Anxiety. Anxiety had stopped me doing so many things I've wanted to do in the last 3 years, for instance going on holidays, going to concerts, going on certain trips and even the simplest of things like going into a busy shop can be horrible experience. I do honestly feel like right now my anxiety is the best its ever been, I do still get my bad days but generally its alot better, so instead of being worried or scared this year I'm just going to go for it and push myself that little bit harder to do things that I really want to do, I've had enough of missing out!

Lose Weight/Be More Healthy!
Yes I know this is really predictable but I've been wanting to lose weight for a very long time, I've not been in the right mind set previously but now its the start of a new year and I feel I am. In September 2013 I went on Slimming World for 3 weeks and managed to lose 6lb's but I never kept up with it, however I loved Slimming World's concept so this January I'm going back on it and will succeed!!! I don't want to just lose weight for the appearance factor but I want to lose weight for my health and fitness too.

Blogging
2013 was an amazing one for me in the blogging world. I started my blog on the 17th January 2013 and started posting the odd post here and there and soon fell completely in love with blogging and the blogging community, I never thought my little blog would reach over 50'000 page views, its so overwhelming and exciting!!! Even though I do have a job along side my blogging hobbie I'm still going to go for it in 2014 with my blog. I'm so passionate about Haysparkle.com and the support I've had from all of you lovelies during 2013 means the world to me and it really does inspire me to achieve bigger and better things for Haysparkle.com in 2014. So watch this space girlie's ha ha!!! I've also started to find myself loving photography, I'm really working hard on making the most out of my little camera and I'm hoping the new lighting studio I was kindly gifted for Christmas will help me achieve better, more crisp photo's for my reviews in 2014... whoop!

And there you have it, the 3 goals that I have set myself to achieve throughout 2014!!!

Have you set yourself any goals or resolutions this year beaut's??? Let me know in the comments below, Id love to know he he!!!

Have a smashing, sparkling New Year girlie's and thank you again for all your support!!!

Don't forget I'm currently holding a Nanshy Eye Brush Set GIVEAWAY, you can enter here.

A Picture Tells A Thousand Storie's #9 (Sunday Summary)

Hey girlie's!!! Hope you are all well. This week i decided that i need to be more healthy and lose a little bit of weight, this is an extremely hard task being the chocoholic that i am so instead of being on a strict 'diet' I've decided just to cut back on some things and exercise more, that way i can still have the odd treat without feeling terrible about it.I have no idea if ill keep to it but its definitely worth a go. Anyhoooo here's my week in pictures ♥ 



A cheeky couple of purchases i made in Superdrug ♥ My healthy lunch of tuna salad with a bagel on the side ♥ My baby Alfie with his head on my leg whilst i eat my dinner, he was hoping for some scraps i think ha ha ♥ My jacket spud and salad i had for dinner ♥ Me wearing my geeky glasses, love them so much ♥ My Thursday throwback picture of me and Alfie when he was a little puppy, love this picture Alfie just looks so small ♥ My naughty treat of the week, the new Teasers bar, amazing creation ♥ I'm loving the Sky Disney Movie channel at the moment and thoroughly enjoyed Bambi the other day ♥ 

♥ I haven't really got a favourite song this week but I've been really into Lana Del Rey's album Born To Die again, i just adore her voice ♥
