Goodbye 2011
Even though 2011 was probably one of the worst years OF MY LIFE.
I don't want to dwell on the negative stuff. So as 2011 is now offically in the past - I think about what I achieved throughout the year.
If I recall correctly, This time last year I would of still been attending Truro College. My last year of college was the complete opposite of my first year. I was a very punctual, enthusatic, delightful student. Then I became a second year student - I was constantly late, didn't even show up to some lectures. Constantly being lectured about my attendance. Although I did have my reasons- It was still unexcusable. I lost all interest in college and this reflected on my grades. In the first year I achieved A's and B's, and in my second year was just scraping a C. But looking back now, I feel like a complete different person to what I was then. Funny how much you can change in a year.
I bought myself my first car. It's not the nicest of automobiles, neither is it the most reliable. But it gets me from A to B (sometimes) so I was happy with my investment. I got myself a black KA - I always said I would never get a KA but as I was car shopping reality hit that they were the only cars in my price range. I've named him Tutankhamun.
Summer 2011 I was working constantly. I work in a surf shop called Ann's Cottage which sells all surf brands such as Animal, O Neil, Quicksilver, Roxy, DC all sorts. We also sell a variety of surf boards and wetsuits which vary from summer to winter suits. I was an extra in the paramount picture "World War Z", a Brad Pitt film which is out december 2012. There I seen the gorgeous Brad pitt who in actual fact looked rather old but hey the man has still got it. I also seen Matthew Fox, Mireille Enos, Elyes Gabel and Marc Foster. It was so amazing to see how a film was actually made, and getting the behind the scene access was immense.
Towards the end of the year, I packed my stuff moved out of Cornwall and moved to Farnham to attend University. Uni has definitely changed me as a person, I'm more confident within myself and my appearance. I have gained such independence that I never thought that I was capable of. Met amazing people, which progressed to friends and then to family. I love them so much - I even went home with one of them to her hometown Bradford which was lovely. It was great to see her family and friends! It gave me the opportunity to get an insight of where shes from and her life before Uni - making me feel as if I know her a bit more. Living away broadens your mind to different things and different types of people. Where I'm from Newquay, Cornwall - It's not a diverse area. Where as In Farnham and in London - things are so much different, and is more varied. Newquay is a beautiful place and has the best beaches, my old secondary school was in the walking distant of the beach which was good in the summer, we'd finish school and then head down to the sand sea and sun. It's good for a night out, especially known for its stag nights.
Earlier that year my brother told me his girlfriend (now fiance) was pregnant - and... I was the first person he told. That meant so much to me! It was over text as he was in Bradford - where his fiance's from - and I thought he was joking! 9 months later I have a beautiful niece Francine Carmen Ann Athanasius Coleman, (Jesus I thought my name was long Imogen Hilary anne Athanasius Coleman). I was there throughout the labour up until the end as there were a few minor complications - baby got stuck! Bless her. She was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen so small and so red - she looked like hell boy! Thankfully she is more a shade of pink now rather than red.
Minus all the drama - there has been some good times.
Aslong as I have my family, my friends and my health that's all that matters!

The hassle of "New Year resoultions"
Fact - Only 8% of people are always successful in achieving their resolutions. 19% achieve their resolutions every other year. 49% have infrequent success. 24% (one in four people) NEVER succeed and have failed on every resolution every year. That means that 3 out of 4 people almost never succeed.
Yeahhh I'm one of those failures in the 24% statistic.
Not only have I actually yet to achieve a news years resoultion but also struggle in remembering what my resoultions were?
Half way through the year, I reflect on the celebrations of new year and try to remind myself what my new year resoultions were - blank. Cannot remember a thing. So this then makes it crystal clear to me that really, I don't care much for new years resoultions. I'm pretty sure I wont stick to them, the goals I make sometimes are unattainable and unrealistic anyways (such as going on a diet). I mean come on, how many girls (and some guys) make that their number one aim every year, and yes they re-make it every year because truth is the diet always goes out of the window EVERY YEAR. In conclusion, if you look at it that way - we are setting ourselves up to fail. Unrealistic resoultions just never cease to happen. How about the resoultion of being "a better person" or "being more postive" again, I am gulity of this one. Every year I try to highlight the importance of bringing good karma and treating those how I would want to be treated. But just saying you want to be a better person or being more postive, what does that actually entail. Being more specific about your new years resoultions increases the chances of you succeeding your resoultions. Instead of saying I want to be a better person - perhaps make it your goal to help individuals like your family, friends or volunteer at a charity organisation.
The less happy you are, the more likely you are to set New Year’s Resolutions. This is especially true for those who set money-related resolutions: 41% are not happy, 34% are moderately happy, and 25% are happy.
Let me get this straight - the "less happier" individuals are, the more likely they are to set new years resoultions. However the previous statistic states that only 8% of people achieve their resoultions; therefore making the "Less happier" indivduals more vulnerable to disapointment by not achieving there goals. This just baffles me.
2012, a year I'm feeling optimistic about.
So here are my new year resoultions:
1. DIET
2. Try to be more cheerful and not get hung up on dramas
3. Write more
4. Read as much as I can, also read a variety of wider genres
Well number 1 has gone out the window already, Im currently sat her eating a box of maltesers (a big box). So far, I'm doing well on number 3 and number 4 but only time will tell if I can really stick to them. That's if I haven't forgotten what they were by that time. The good thing is I've always been a bit of a book worm so that shouldn't be hard to stick to, however I tend to read to the same kind of books such as inspiriational books, and lovey dovey ones. I recently purchased "The Rum Diary" by Hunter S. Thompson after a few people recommened it to me. So far, I'm mezmerised by this book. I shan't say too much about it as I'm going to write a brief review on it for a future blog.
Finger's crossed that I might fall in to the 8% statistic this year!
I highly doubt it though.
