First of all I have to say thank you to Eagle Eye who helped me to realise that it’s high-time I wrote a new entry for this goal, as all of the things I wanted to improve on, have been improved on.

Current things I want to improve on are as follows:
keeping in touch with friends
I’ve had the goal ‘make new friends’ for about 6 months now, but just because I finished school, and everyone split up and went off to uni doesn’t mean I have to write off old friendships, it just means I have to make sure I keep in touch with those who I can’t see as often anymore. I’ve kept in touch with a few people, but i’d like to improve this, and make sure I continue to focus on it.

not feeling lonely
It’s difficult being 18 and living in the country. I get time off work to visit people my age, but generally I need to be able to go a few weeks at a time and be able to not get lonely. I’ve struggled with loneliness for some time now. Usually I can manage it well, sometimes it gets the better of me. This last week has been particularly bad, but I was able to spend time with some friends today which helped and hopefully i’ll get to see Aaron this weekend.

saving money!
aaah i’m sure everyone wants to improve on this! I do pretty well generally, most of my spending is necessary spending only. I do spend the occasional dollar on something I could’ve gone without, but i’m much better than I used to be. It’s important I keep this up, so I have money saved for university! :)

completing my wardrobe
I’d like to have all the clothes I feel I need to have before I go to uni, so that i’m not tempted to spend money on clothes when I can’t afford it. I figure it will be easier to tell myself that I don’t need to buy more clothes if I already have enough. I’ve been visiting second-hand clothing stores, and today picked up 2 rather nice dresses for $7 each, also a few t-shirts, and some very cool shorts :)

^{My mind has gone blank… I’ll have to finish this another time :)}
