November 2019 Resolution Update

Only one more month until a new decade… I\’m shocked but also excited. I\’ll be in my twenties for most the 21st century 20s and I\’m curious to spend this time of my life, have new adventures! But for now, I need to get through finals and focus on the present (and this past month)! This month was fairly uneventful, I might ad Goal Meals I can honestly say that I haven\’t made anything from my list this month. I\’ve made a variety of things, mostly things that I\’ve made in the past, but like I said, nothing from this list… Whoops!

Money & Shopping I feel like I did really good this month. I don\’t recall making that many purchases, but those I did were mostly from Poshmark or Goodwill, so they were definitely a bargain. Of course I was slightly tempted by Black Friday, but my mom and I went to Ulta where she bought one of their $10 mascaras and I bought some more of my favorite foundation since I was running low, which wasn\’t even on sale so…

Regarding the Earth I feel a lot better about this month than I have the prior months. I\’ve been a lot more careful about reusing things, adding trash to make a trash Christmas tree (it\’s a work in progress lol), bringing home my compost, not picking up food, avoiding food waste, etc. I mean don\’t get me wrong, I still get really worried a lot of times, but hey at least I\’m back in action! I plan to write a blog post in the future about the sustainable steps I take while I\’m here on campus, most of which I started doing recently!

Reading Though I feel like I\’m kind of back in a non-reading slump, earlier this month I read Golden Child by Claire Adams, which I have mixed feelings about. They\’re mostly positive, but still a little mixed. Currently, however, I am reading Saint Anything by Sarah Dessen, which has been on my list for a long time, and I am about half way through it but I hope to finish it by the weekend! In relation to my Goodreads reading challenge, I am currently at 9, which is the number I got stuck at last year… In other words, I might be reading a lot this month!

The Blog I feel really content with where everything is at right now, and I\’m almost to 500 followers, which is so exciting for me! I remember when I first started this account and this blog and I maybe had 5 followers, and then I hit 100. It\’s been a slow growth process, but it\’s my growth process and I\’m so proud of it.

Much Love,
