UPDATE | HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Happy New Year loves <3 I can’t believe 2014 passed by SO quickly! This year I’m really going to try and balance out my life! No, not the cliche “New Year New Me!” sort of deal, more of an organizing of my life. We all know how chaotic it can  be to live in this day and age. With new technology and limitless globalism, it’s as if there aren’t enough hours in the day! So my first baby step is to start exercising regularly. I don’t mean daily! That’s too big a leap for Anya-kind! However at least a few sessions a week would be nice. Particularly I’m looking to get back into yoga, but that’s for another post!

I also want to fix my sleeping habits! As a student, your sleep cycle and patterns are as hap hazardous as the roads after an ice storm! Completely unpredictable! But for your body and your brain to function properly, proper sleep is quite necessary! Now as I learned in a first-year neuroscience class, the whole 9-5 attitude of the world is actually quite inefficient! Ideally our bodies and brains work better when waking up and sleeping later, pretty much shifting 9-5 to around 2-10! However that is a whole other theory to get into, so for now just getting at least 7-8 hours of sleep would be the goal!

Also I really want to get back into cooking! Frankly cooking is not only much healthier for you, but also SO much cheaper than constantly eating out! Last year I really binged on the take out, and I could feel it in my constant fatigue and sluggishness. This year I hope to get into the cooking habit, which will also require extra planning and time management as a student’s life is one of constant GO GO GO!

Ultimately, this year I want to cherish every moment of every second of everyday! I learned in 2014 that we never get time back, and that we have to make the most of the time we have! So goodluck to all, I hope this year we can all take a step back, and really cherish what it feels like to LIVE. Cheers and hugs, till next time…
