2014 Is Going To Be Better......


Can't believe is going to be 2014 already. I remembered last year at this same time thinking i only had one semester to go. 2013 has been year full of challenges, surprises, goal achiever and much more. I am not going to be here and say that i didn't have my moments where I have found myself in frustrated moments and thought why me? But this 2013 brought joy to my family. The end of a mile stone and finally reaching one of mine and my moms goal. Graduating from college with honors.

 All of that was possible through the hard work and effort i put through out the whole journey( 4 yrs in a half) and  my mom being my number ONE mentor. Education has always been number one in my home. It has always been a priority of my Mom and Dad to get a college degree and it happen in 2013. Now the challenges of being an adult and start job hunting or attending grad school. That has been something that has kept me up some nights. Job hunting has not been the best. I haven't had that chance yet to demonstrate what I am capable of career wise.

 I studied Broadcast Journalism my goal is to be a reporter. That opportunity has not come yet. One of my goals for the upcoming year is to make that happen. And possibly attend grad school in the summer of 2014. 

My other goal is to be more positive. sometimes i am just way to negative. I think that i am not going to make it or achieve something but as my mom says ( La Paciencia es Amarga pero sus frutos son dulces). Basically it means patience is hard but if you wait you will see the positive outcome. I have to be more positive and not so harsh on myself. I admit sometimes i can be my worst critic. 

I also want to keep blogging. I want to give a new face to the blog. I have reached a graphic designer and we started talking on how i want my blog to look. I want to meet more readers and share with you my passions, knowledge for things, such as Beauty or Fashion. But also bits of my personal life.

And last keep eating healthy and working out. Over this past year in half i have lost over 40 pounds. I was not happy with myself, my body and not healthy. I decided to change that, I am not going to say i have reached my goal, but i will say that I am a new Andrea. That has learned to eat healthy. Enjoys to workout and feel proud of myself. I learned what are my strenght and weakness. I want to keep up working on my health. And again with patience and hard work anything is possible. As my mom says.

I hope you spend a New Years Eve with your  Family and Friends and if you don't,  remember that you are never alone. God is by your side. Enjoy and see you next year.

XOXO Andrea
