April Goals

March Goals - Recap

I accomplished half of the goals I set for myself. I'm not mad about it. It was a busy month and I'm just happy I did some of the things. Plus, I had a fantabulous Spring Break and didn't fail my midterms. I call that a win any day.

1. Spend below my means.- SUCCESS!
But this could also be because I got my tax refund so... just gotta keep it up.

2. Budget and track spending.- FAIL!
Because... vacation.

3. Be more realistic about my time and energy levels.-FAIL!
First of all, just looking at this ambitious list should be an indication that even while writing it, it was not realistic. 

4. Catch up on all schoolwork [mandatory, since I have midterms this month] - SUCCESS!

5. Use What I Have- SUCCESS? 
I didn't have any real way to measure this, but I didn't buy anything extra except food, so I'm gonna say it was a success.

6. Meal plan weekly... and (at least) 4 new recipes - FAIL!

7. Spring Cleaning- FAIL!
I barely cleaned the very bare minimum. Oops. 

8. Finish a Book [mandatory, since I have a book club meeting towards the end of the month]- FAIL! 
This month's book is "Olivia Joules and the Overactive Imagination" by Helen Fielding. Looks pretty interesting!
Update: I was hoping I would get reading done on the plane/vacation, but... movies. And midterms. I am about halfway through it though.

9. Get a damn haircut.- SUCCESS!
You can see the new 'do here!

10. Apartment to "Home" Remodel- SUCCESS! 
Pictures coming soon!

  2. I like your new hair! I missed that the first time around.

    That's a solid spring cleaning list.
