What do I hope to achieve in 2013

I have been thinking about whether I want to do one of these 'New Years Resolution' posts, I don't really like the idea of them, but, there are things I am going to fight to achieve this year.
I hope I can look back at this post this time next year and be in a much better place.
Here they are, in no particular order.


  1. Finally get in control of my Anxiety and Depression disorders that have been plaguing me for years, I understand that they'll never go away completely, but I need to be the one in control of them, not them in control of me! I can do it. (this is not something I really ever speak about and not many people are aware of the issues I have with it)
  2. Earn some money in 2012 I didn't really make any profit at all, I was doing a college course and putting in the groundwork for my career (s) this year needs to change.
  3. Move into my own flat I am dying to get my own place, however modest it may be, it'll be mine.
  4. Keep up with my modelling I am so happy with what I have achieved in 2012 in my modelling career and I want to continue at that level through 2013, I don't believe I've reached my peak with it yet.
  5. Get back into Pole Dancing Ever since I suffered a pole - related injury over a year ago I haven't got back to the level I should be at, I haven't been able to afford lessons and although I have my own pole I've been really slack! I aim to be more motivated to practice regularly and keep up with my stretching and strength exercises to keep me in good condition.
  6. Pass my driving test and get a car The getting a car part may be harder than I am hoping, but I aim to at least pass my test this year, no matter how many attempts it may take, I know I can do it.
  7. Read more I want to read a lot more than I have this year, I think it's important to expand my knowledge about the things I love.
  8. Do more of my Illustration/Artwork Since I gained my degree in Illustration I haven't really progressed any further with it. I want to change that this year, push myself to produce the kind of work I am capable of and maybe even start an online shop.
  9. Work with more talented people I really hope that I get to work with more creatives, photographers, models, designers and artists, as well as continuing collaborations with those I worked with last year, I think I have the potential to do so much more in collaboration with some super talented people.
  10. Make an effort to see Friends more often and make some new friends Friendship is the most important thing in the world and this year I hope to see more of the people I consider friends and make some new friends too.

Here I am on New Years Eve, hopefully the start of a positive year!
