#getreadywithme #2024goals
First of all, I’m so sorry for your losses. I’m sending my love to you and Zane. Second, I wanted to share the best thing that’s happened in my year - my daughter and her husband are expecting my first grandchild! She’s due in March and it’s a little girl! I’m so happy for them, especially because they had a hard time conceiving and a miscarriage. And, of course, I’m happy for myself, as well!🥰
I graduate on Wednesday from beauty school. I will officially be a licensed esthetician! I am really looking forward to what the future holds for me.
omg good luck!
Reading Lord of the Rings is such an adventure! It is so worth doing❤ So many of the new ideas are influenced by this great classic. It’s an amazing creative masterpiece.
I don’t see myself getting around to reading them but I will watch them!
Stopping counting calories was great for me too. I stopped years ago and I’m so much happier eating what I want without worrying about it. Absol is such a beautiful kitty! He reminds me so much of my kitty Moya Moon.
Yeah but it's still good to check nutrition information and to check serving size and calories per serving when you're picking out things like snacks... A friend of mine has been eaten candy lately and they had no idea it was like 300 calories of serving LOL
This year was rough. But I'm proud of myself for being able to focus and do everything I had to. I finished and presented my monography at university and got approved with a solid 10/10. My major is Psychology and I had several internships taking care of a few kids through therapy. Sad stories, even more sad social vulnerabilities and all the psychological and developmental setbacks that come with it, but I'm able to sleep at night knowing that not only I managed to set my personal shit aside and be fully present with my patients, but also did a pretty good job with the limited time and resources I had working on their cases.
But through all that I did neglect things that are important to me, like exercising, doing yoga, bathing in waterfalls, working with the soil and plants. So my goals for next year revolve around those things. I wanna travel more (I live 1 hour away from several beautiful waterfalls and natural pools), I want to pick up gardening again, exercising, meditating. And graduate at the end of 2024.
Geez, I hadnt stopped to think about these things. Now my goals are set.
you’re gonna do great!
This has been rough but also lots of good things happened. I’ve lost 45 lbs from an extensive depression episode, graduated my therapy program, got off all medications because I was finally mentally ready to, and celebrated 5 years with my partner. ❤️
I wish 2024 (I literally almost typed 2023, where is my head LOL) to be a beautiful year for all you here in the comments but also you for you and Zane
🖤🖤🖤
My positive thing for the year was starting to play roller derby again after a 3 year break (with Covid and an injury). It really brought back so much joy into my life!
So sorry for your loss. I lost my 17 year old dog Chaska this year which was super hard but then adopted a new pup Gigi which has made the end of this year absolutely amazing and filled with joy and love!
Sending you all the love and encouragement in the entire world! Becoming your own biggest fan is huge! My parents did a good job of instilling this in me, and I'm trying to instill it in my own kids.
🖤🖤
I'm so sorry for the loss of your kitties.
Positive thing - Learning about myself a lot through therapy, even if it's not easy. Goal for 2024 - find a physical activity that I would like and stick with.
Love red eye pencil with this cool tone look! ❤🚿🍵📚
20:30 I'm in bed, first thing in the morning, watching this video 🤣
To be fair I'm catlocked and don't want to disturb my cat's nap lol
hahaha
It's been a difficult year for sure. I lost my Staffy end of September and got laid off two weeks ago. However, the good news is that for the first time ever I have a good support system and plan in place to help me through this time. Also I rescued a new dog 3 days before I got laid off! His name is Worldwide Handsome and he's just the best. Lastly, I'm going to get my PMP in 2024! That's my goal!
Thanks for the video and helping me reflect on the good from the year. Happy holidays!
So sorry to hear that! I’m glad about your dog!
This year was all about self-healing and I'm carrying that into the new year too! 2024 will be about improving my future, pulling myself out of the rut I've been in for the last 3 years and focusing on looking after myself physically and mentally. I'm not normally that hopeful, but this time, round, I'm hopeful 2024 will be full of positive changes 🥰❤️✨️
I don’t know squat about the sims games but i would totally watch just to hang out!
I lost someone very precious to me very suddenly last year and i didn’t do anything christmasy for myself in 2022 (didn’t even listen to a single christmas song!) festivities can feel incredibly trivial in the thick of crushing loss and i totally understand! I hope you, zane, and the babies are doing better and finding joy in the moments you can 😁 thanks for being here with us on youtube despite this hard holiday season, it’s never unappreciated!!
Hell yea to using Libby and your local library. I’m a huge proponent of library usage. The library is an incredible resource in so many different ways. One of my highlights of the year was taking three different friends into a library to get their library cards 📚 ❤
I went back to work for the company I really love! I was a christmas temp with them last year and at the end of this year they finally had a permanent contract available. It’s a retail job, but I do want to have a career with them, progress to a manager and maybe even further. Going to work finally doesn’t feel like a huge chore anymore, I love the company, the shop I work in and the people I work with.
so happy for you!!
This year was good and bad for me. I got married, I traveled quite a bit, my brother got married, I discovered indie brand makeup. But I also had my second miscarriage, and I’m still struggling with that. Hopefully 2024 brings me a baby 🤍
i wish you the best🖤🖤
🙌🏽❤🙌🏽❤🙌🏽❤
This year was more than rough. But I am happy that my family and i grew closer through this. This is a good thing for me this year.
I want to read more next year, I was in a year long slumb and now in December I finally read again and I want to do this next year as well.
Omg Betty I totally agree with you! I lived in Tallahassee for 11 years and I moved back to my home state of Ohio 6 years ago. I live in Ohio now and I love the winter here. So snowy and beautiful and serene... chilly weather makes me feel cozy 😊
Loved this chatty GRWM. I love sims and have many of the same goals. Love your kitty. Sorry for your losses. I lost my 15 year old yellow lab earlier in the month, really hard. Highlight of the year- my second rescue cat (neighborhood stray that I took in July this year) finally relaxed enough to sleep on my lap. He’s crazy most of the time and heavy handed. 2024 will be a no buy year, for everything optional, not just makeup.
Sending you love and happiness in the new year 🎉🎉🎉❤
😻😻❤️❤️❤️ i would love longer videos
P.s: this year was rough for saying least, but i survived
What a cute look! Happy new year to you! I hope your 2024 will be full of life and joy 💝
Yes, please be kind to yourself! You deserve all of the good things ❤
This year was pretty rough for me and my physical and mental health but in the midst of all that I am happy to have my daughter and granddaughter back living with me and safe. I want to read more next year and my family and friends gifted me so many books for my bday which was just on Dec 19th. I wish I could read as fast as you but I can never sit long enough to read more than 50 pages at a time. Lol. Can't wait to see all your 2024 content. Love you Betty Jean! ❤
Loving this look on you, and I always enjoy your GRWM videos! I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your fur babies. Sending you both healing vibez 🐈 🙌🏽💓🙌🏽💓🙌🏽💓🐈
This was a big year for me with lots of revelations, getting to spend more time with family, and lots of personal growth. I'm in a relationship with an amazing guy, and it's my first relationship in over 10 years. We just got back from a road trip from St. Petersburg, Florida, and we had a fabulous time. It was my first time being there, and we also got to go to Universal Studios and Epcot. All so magickal! YAASSS to being your biggest fan!! We should all take that into practice. Yay, so cool you got a Peloton, I've always wanted one. I started going to the gym with my boyfriend regularly, and I want to keep my fitness up, do yoga, write and create more, and amp up my reading. I just finished reading the first Harry Potter book for the first time, and I'm onto the second book. Loving the series. A recommendation for excellent, delicious, vegan recipes is Fork Over Knives. You can find their recipe books at the front of grocery store registers. Have a lovely year, and thank you for all you do! 🙏🏽💗🌠🌈👑🧚🏽♀️✨🎃🦇💝
My goals for the year are to get back to sewing and to take my dog on more walks! I used to love to sew and make my own clothes but after a really hard breakup I haven’t in a year and a half. I’ve already started and made my mom a shirt and I’m so so happy!!
🏖️🌸🌞🍹It is so difficult to lose any beloved fur baby, wishing you peace & healing💕. This year was exceptionally good for a change. Met most of my goals so far and just want to be more mindful of living in the now. That being said, my hubby and I are looking so forward to 3 weeks in Cuba in March. Beautiful makeup look, and you look lovely with the green highlights and red sweater!!
I’ve lost 54lbs. My best friend passed. I feel bad about your lovely kitties. It was hard to get into the Christmas spirit. I want to embrace joy in the coming year. I want to be more giving and kind. I wish for peace around the world. I hope no one goes hungry or homeless. That’s my gig. Happy new year to you and Zane!❤🎄🎉💄🤗
sorry for your loss🖤
Often I watch a movie that is the first in a book series and because I cant wait to see how it ends I go and buy all the books and read them straight through. My most recent excursion being the Shadow and Bone series. That also happened to me with Twilight-watched the movie and had to read all the books.
Ultimately, I've had a really good year. I finished writing a novel I had been working on for YEARS which was huge! I would love to see some longer videos and I would absolutely watch you on twitch! Hope you have a great 2024. I'm so glad I found you this year. ❤
Omg I’m exact opposite when it comes to movies and books, if I love a movie I have ginormous need to read a book. Like with Hunger games prequel because I’ve read that the book is so much better. Movie wasn’t the best I’ve ever seen but it has amazing story line I think can be done better in the book - I’ve just missed the inner monologue in the movie and I’ve noticed few plotholes that need to be filled. 😂
I had New Year’s resolution I can say went more than perfect - I did low buy where my cap was 70€ which turned into no-buy until December when I bought one foundation and even that was drugstore 6€ foundation. 😄 I’m so proud of myself.
We closed on our first homes in April. Definitely highlight of the year!!
There’s a farm near me that grows lavender and for 2-3 weeks in June they open it up to the public to visit. I look forward to finally visiting it.
My cat slept through all the fireworks but woke up at the sound of Ansel meowing lol. Happy New Year!
Girl ! I should be in NYC week of Jul 15th :) a small trip with my sister for my 40th and her 35th 🎉
fun!!
My goal for 2024 is to start doing CrossFit again. I loved it so much before I got pregnant and I had horrible postpartum depression that has lasted the last 2 years and I am finally recovered and I am ready to be me again 😊
I am with you on the Florida weather. UGHHHH.....I was in Florida for 15 years and recently moved back to the midwest where I am originally from. And its been nice and cool with no humidity. I am loving this new place. I loved the people in Florida but the weather can just stop lol
I lost a dog in February. He was 6 years old when we rescued him and we had him for 10 years. So I understand what you are going through. 😢
I’m 74 years old and….. I retired on October 26th! I worked for Walmart for 18.5 years. I was 56 when I was hired. I wanted to reach 20 years, but it wasn’t to be….
One of our favorite meals is Eggroll in a Bowl. Delicious.
My husband and I celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary in November! We are blessed.👨🏼🦳👳🏻♀️❤
sorry for your loss🖤 & congrats on the anniversary that’s amazing!
I used to have all these lofty “New Years Resolutions” that I would inevitably fall short of and this year- I have none. I am so proud of myself for that. If I have any goals- it’s to just take care of myself and my friends and fam as best as I can.
If that means saving money that week, awesome. If that means treating myself because I need a little joy, awesome.
I got a vacation to Harry Potter World in Orlando for Christmas and I am NOT going to try to lose ten pounds to look better in photos. I’m not going to obsess over making everything perfect. I’m going to love my best Hufflepuff life and make a list of all the snacks I want to try!
I also do want to try to utilize the library more- the books are expensive and taking up a lot of space lol. We have an amazing local library and they deserve my support!
One of my goals is to powerlift more. Right now I'm at 260 lbs pr for deadlifts, and I want to get to a 300 pr. I love strength training, and need to get back to it.
Thank you for the video
Your about to become a Tolkien and Hunger Games fan 😊 I think you will like them a lot...
This year was strange for me too. Some really high highs and and really low lows. I spent a lot of time grieving things I had hoped would turn out differently. But I traveled so much and saw many countries I had wanted to see for so long. And I owe a thank you to you. I found my passion for reading again. I read a *ton* in my high school and early college years. Devoured the YA section in Barnes and noble then didn’t read for years. I recently finished the Scythe series. Fascinating concept. Loved the first 2 books and 3rd one left me…scratching my head? Idk weird. I adore the Lunar Chronicles. I’d recommend them for an interesting world but a relatively easy read. It’s been interesting seeing the book series I was into in my 20s suddenly becoming THE book series to read 😂 I’ve recently gone through my book collection that I had stored away in boxes and it brought back sooo many good memories.
Forgot goals….I traveled a lot this year and also feel like you do. I want to do shorter trips. More camping. My best friend and my brother and I take our horses camping and I want to do more of that. I want just simple weekend trips. I do travel for work so I’ll be doing some travel but maybe not as much. I’d like to set a schedule for myself and my treadmill to simply get into better shape.
You ABSOLUTELY should try streaming on Twitch. I love it over there and you already have a great community that would join you. Dive in!! haha I loveee streaming and I think you could do live GRWMs over there too if you wanted. So many cool ideas.
Watch LOTR with friends that have read the books, so they can fill you in about the lore while watching. The whole LOTR is so much more than the main books, so there is so much more lore behind the scenes. 😊
This year for me I accomplished the goal I've had set for at least 5 years now, which is sorting my mental health out. Im suddenly playing life on easy mode, and I gained a lot of body positivity despite gaining weight on my medications. My goal for this year is to get my weight under control (for health reasons.) My other goal this year was to get promoted into a new position and I achieved it! Your goals for travel sound awesome, I might try that myself. You should definitely play tourist in your area, it's really fun! You can find some cool stuff!
I hope you bring your Sims livestreams to UA-cam!
If I ever start streaming I’d probably post the recorded lives on a separate channel!
I’m so sorry for your losses. What a terrible hit and the worst way to end a year… I’m glad the year up until that point had been so positive. Wishing you all the best for 2024! You have an incredibly healthy foundation you’re building on, and equally healthy goals to add onto that foundation. I love how grounded and realistic your mindset is, and I also love your focus on being kind to yourself, which is so important. ❤
I’ve had an absolutely terrible year… easily the worst one ever, and it’s capping off an abysmal three years, which followed 2020, which was ironically my best year ever.
In 2020, my health (disabled fifteen years with multiple chronic illnesses) was stable and well managed, and I met my boyfriend, the love of my life. Things were going GREAT, and I was so incredibly happy. We got Covid in the last days of 2020/first days of 2021, and everything changed. Both our healths started going down hill, his immediately and mine a sliding decline to spending the last five months close to bedridden. We also figured out that financially, we could never get married or live together due to my disability benefits, so that was a massive emotional hit as well.
I found some medical help at the end of 2021, which was enough to at least pull me out of being bed bound but not enough to actually start to recover, and 2022 was just spent treading water trying to survive. Which brought us to this year, which started with continuing to tread water/survive. But things rapidly started sliding down hill again.
My apartment complex started doing full renovations requiring me to move, which I was by no means well enough to do and meant my home, my safe space, was under attack. While I was struggling to deal with that, my health and worst of all my mental health, started falling off a cliff. I was angry, irritable, anxious, and depressed, and I did not want to be here anymore. (I had never really struggled with my mental health like this, so it was scary and very much not like me) The only reason I’m still here is my two elderly cats. I knew they needed me, and I couldn’t abandon them.
I went through the worst eight months of my life, in a terrible, terrible place dealing with so much crap related to the move that you would not even believe half of it, and I was literally fighting for my life. But towards the end, I put together some scattered pieces related to my health and figured out a MASSIVE underlying issue that explained my recent mental health crisis, my three year decline, and years and years, possibly decades, of suffering, and immediately sought treatment. It came too late to get me through the move, but at least it came, and I was alive to figure it out and implement it.
I’m three months past initial pre-treatment and a week into full treatment now, and things are already SO MUCH BETTER. My mental health has almost entirely resolved, save the scars left behind, my health is slowly beginning to improve, though it will probably take years to see the full benefit of treatment, and I fully believe next year will be different.
2024 is a fresh start for me, a new beginning. My only goals are to 1) continue my commitment to routines and treatments, both old and new, that will allow me to treat and manage my prior conditions and also allow me to begin to recover and heal from the new condition. 2) reestablish previous self care routines that had to be abandoned for survival and create new ones to better truly care for myself instead of maintaining the bare minimum, and 3) hopefully fully unpack and organize my entire apartment to regain my safe space and make a new home for myself. (that last one feels a bit impossible, even giving myself the entire year, but I am hopeful it could happen - it depends on my improvement)
Sorry for the absolute novel, which I feel like no one will take the time to read, but your honesty inspired me to open up and share. (thank you to anyone who took the time to read!) Again, I hope you have an amazing 2024, and wish the same to anyone else reading! ❤
I hope next year gets better for you! You deserve it!🖤🖤
This has been an odd year for me. I got married earlier this year which is amazing, I love having a husband and being a husband. Unfortunately, he's from a different country so we're stuck in the green card process and can't live together yet. So that's been bitter sweet. But I did embrace that I love doing makeup this year, which was largely thanks to your channel. Gender doesn't matter, makeup is for everyone, so I've really enjoyed exploring that and getting to express myself!
awh i hope you two can be together soon!
@@battybean Thank you ☺️ hopefully only a few more months
I did a 200 hour yoga teacher training certification. By far my biggest achievement of the year
Betty Jean. You have always seemed to be one of the kindest and most genuine people I watch. That's why I've even made you things and since you things. And it breaks my heart that you had to go through the pain of losing your kitty babies. But I wish you happiness in the year to come far less heartbreak. I too need to watch Lord of the Ring films. My husband I mentioned he wants me to watch them with him So he's just going to have to get me to sit down and watch them, I'll probably have to crochet while watching them. I think probably the The best thing for me this year, is I was in a situation where I was able to quit my job that was causing stress. Finally got a proper diagnosis for a sleep disorder that I've been struggling with. And I have the opportunity to try and figure out what career opportunity I wish to advance with. Because that's not something a lot of people get to take the time to figure out and today's day and age. And I feel very fortunate to have that time to figure it out. Again I wish you well now I wish you well in the future. And I'm very glad that I did find your channel, because you are just a very enjoyable person to watch and again you just have always seemed like such a genuine person
I appreciate you so much!🖤
@@battybean girl I appreciate you for showing me great makeup I don't think I'd have found otherwise. Also I didn't realize you weren't 30 yet. Either I think of myself younger than I am or you older than you are haha
Ive always hated working out but love Pilates and absolutely encourage everyone to try it! ❤🎉
Yes love longer videos
Love your Christmas look! So pretty!🤗🎄🤗
Work has been wonderful for me this year. I have also found out that I really enjoy working out. Would love longer videos from you 🌈💫🤍
This has been a tough year. Started with my mom almost dying on January 1st. My two 13 year old sibling cats Gizmo and Gadget died a couple months apart. Then two weeks ago my car broke down. But I am determined to have a better year. My goel is just to stay in the present. Not worry about the future or get lost in the past. Even in sadness I will find joy. You are a sparkley soul and I love your videos.
so sorry for your loss🖤🖤
I have had a good year but I’m very sensitive to the loss and hardship around me. I am so sorry for your losses. This time of year is so very difficult to endure losses. I do love longer videos. I think it would be fun to incorporate some of the fantasy looks from your reading or more of the 3 looks, 3 palette series. I hope you do a seasonal BYOP video. They are a fun and informative exercise and can up take a lot of time. I love looking into my older palettes and duping the vibe as well.
Absolutely beautiful ❤😊
thanks!🖤
It's so hard losing a fur baby, but the fact you lost 2 so close must be so hard. As a cat mommy of 4 I'm sending you a virtual hug and loves. Yes, please read the Hunger Games books! I own the first three and even though it was a part of my younger years there is just so much that stuck with me. I hope you enjoy it all when you get a chance. As to the Lord of the Rings I would suggest maybe having some friends over and doing a marathon! I love the Hobbit movies also. Never got into the books because the phrasing was hard to understand at times and they're just so damn long! I would love to learn how to grow veggies. Specifically spinach and kale since my husband uses it for lunch. We just got a new treadmill so I've been really enjoying working out again. I would highly recommend Yoga with Adriene. She is on UA-cam and tends to do a 30 day challenge in January. I did it last year and loved it and I want to get back into yoga! Looking forward to the new year.
Gooorl!! You need to watch all of the Lord of the Rings, the Hobbit movies, and the Ring of Power! All so goood!😤😝 last year I’m happy to have met some pretty cool new friends.
The year started very badly with an unexpected loss of a friend. But I did get married this year on Friday the 13th after being with my husband for over 7 years.
so sorry for your loss but i’m so happy about your marriage!
Omg I love America's Test Kitchen
Beautiful Look ❤
I think you’ll really like Pilates and yoga! They were my favorite workouts when I could do them. As you said, it’s kinda like a combination of meditation and working out at the same time; a very unique experience. I bet you’ll really love LOTR too! I’ve been working incredibly hard on fighting an autoimmune illness that has been quite severe since 2008. I finally found a specialist who actually knows about my illness last November, which was the first time I felt like it might not kill me. It’s still a lot of really hard days and I’m so far from where I want to be… but I haven’t given up, I’ve kept fighting and I’m proud of myself for that. So my goal for this year is to continue fighting, keep seeking out new treatments and ways to help support my body and inch my way into getting my life back a little bit more 😊 You look gorgeous! I’m sorry this year was so full of tragedy for you. I sincerely hope next year brings you everything you want and more! ❤
I truly wish you the best! Good luck!!
My darling, i loved watching this...i love getting to know you more and more after watching you for years... even at 56 I'm learning to love me 😂😂❤❤ I'm a clinical Hypnotherapist for over 13yrs if i can ever assist you or any of your wonderful followers xo
I also want to start exercising more in the new year... I am the healthiest I have been in about 10 years and I want to improve my cardiac health, since I'm nearing 40
1. Spending time with my friends and family was definitely a highlight this year. Loved meeting you and Zane, and getting to play DnD in person with our group.
2. I just started my reread on The Hunger Games, so I am excited for a refresh - we can chat about it if you want while you are reading. I am thinking of rereading Throne of Glass as well! And The Red Queen series.
3. I am excited to start mine, Matt, and Katy’s podcast.
4. I am hoping to go on one trip with Mark this year. Also getting my rental pelaton once I figure out where I wanna put it!
5. You know where there is GREAT hiking… 😂😂😂 jk! (But maybe when you visit again you can explore some hiking!)
I also did calorie counting because I did Noom. And weighed myself daily. I learned that is not for me. Getting workouts in and eating better intuitively is much better for me.
👍🏻🤛🏻✌🏻🤘🏻👏🏻🙌🏻
SO glad we got to finally meet in person! can’t wait to see you again!
I'm literally downloading CC for my Sims 4 when you mention about streaming your game 😊 I'm so sorry to hear about your fur babies 😢 I have three dogs and I know how they are family to me so I can't even imagine 💔
I'm so sorry about your little kitties.
It's nice hearing of different things you want to try & do with your time. The bowls cookbook sounds good to start doing recipes for versatility with food dishes. So, I'm not sure if you heard of them; but if you are interested in vegan/plant based recipes, Gaz Oakley has some good cookbooks, & Sadia Badiei aka Pick Up Limes, has a great ebook / website of recipes. They both have UA-cam channels that don't make me miss meat for most of their dishes, & I'm a meat eater. I've been cooking more too, & its just been nice exploring various food dishes, which is what I would like to expand on for 2024 & maybe even picking up swimming as a form of exercise.
I lost 75lbs. this year. Im prond of me.
As a huge NYC lover, I would suggest to not go in summer if you can help it. My daughter's birthday is in the summer and we went for 3 years. Because of the heat, walking, and intense scent of human urine, I'm done. I'd love to go in the winter, but I won't go again in the summer. But, you may love it, never know till you try yourself!!
Summer always sucks no matter what for me haha
@battybean same, I'd rather live in the arctic Tundra than be sweaty hot!!
I like the beach at night
This has been a very tough year for my husband and I. I also lost my one Doxie right before the holiday and put us in the non Christmas time, so we didn't decorate or celebrate this year. Money is tight especially when we are both disabled and limited on things we can do. I almost met my reading goal of a 120 books for the year, but I will not reach that by the end of the the month. I think I might am around 115. I also want to mention that I started to Blue moon series by Lucy Score, it's good, check it out if you haven't read it yet. 😘💜
so sorry for your loss!
Great video! 2023 has been a mixed bag for me…I do really love fitness, especially group exercise, and I wanted to be able to do 20 pushups on my toes in proper form by the end of the year, and I did it. I was able to purchase this palette-my first from the brand, and I used your code. 💪👍🌷☀️
thanks for using it!
Okay Betty Jean you HAVE to read LOTR and of course watch the movies!! But they are such good reads!! The first bit of Fellowship is tough - but it’s so good!! Maybe as an audio book with you and Zane together on one of your trips? I won’t influence you but I really think you would love them!
I had a good year - it keeps getting better and better I think because I get more and more wise and brave! Or perhaps I simply realize as I get older how little I know and have more and more confidence to bravely conquer the mysteries of the world I’ve yet to discover!
I’ve loved getting to know you virtually and I respect and admire you so much! I’m certainly a BIG fan of yours and I want you to be just as big a fan of yourself!! I hope your new year brings healing and joy and adventure!
I know myself and 10000% it isn’t my writing style but I’m excited to watch the movies! I’ve also found recently I’m not an audiobook person hahaha
10 book a month *sighs* I should set a list too and add "read more" to it. period!
your makeup is amazing !🐉☘🍀🌷
I love this whole look and fit ❤️💚❤️💚 I felt the becoming my biggest fan bc my self imagine of my self wasn't the best. Rn is not too bad but could be much better. I definitely don't know to be too harsh on myself. I want to become more active for sure, I should definitely check out UA-cam channel that have workout videos even if it's like 15-30 mins a day. I definitely want to travel more, I went to a trip to Michigan with my bf and his friends. It was a lovely small vacation ❤️❤️❤️💃🏻💃🏻🎊🎊✨✨😊😊
It was my 13th anniversary. My cats not scared of the upstairs anymore he’s a basement cat. I lost 20lbs. Other than that the year was shite lol.

I was there for the video where she talked about Felix passing away but... another kitty crossed the rainbow bridge? I think I missed a video... my condolences.
Positive things, hmm... got a little bit of a raise. Took more walks this year. Started reading again, inspired by you and another youtuber. I read Crave and ACOTAR.
i posted about it on my community tab. i didn’t want to talk about it again on video when it happened.
My kitty... we had him 20 years, passed away on the 27th. Of course we knew he wouldn't live forever, but I was home alone, watching him go in a traumatic way around 5am. If people wonder why letting your furbabies go with the help of a vet, my experience is an exact reason. I don't wish the way my Gizmo went on any animal. I'm still not doing well about it.
I'm now considered exemp for second language tests for the rest of my career. English being my second language :)

I tried reading the LoTR trilogy in HS and I got to about halfway through Two Towers and got so frustrated by a particular part of the book where Tolkien spends PAGES describing a TREE and its so boring and my adhd brain just kept turning off while trying to read it. After the fifth time of rereading it I put the book down and never picked it back up. He's a legend, his writing is incredible its also really long winded and boring. Just watch the movies. I've thought about going back to try to finish it now that I've got my brain mostly sorted but Id rather just read something Id actually enjoy reading.
hahaha i’ve heard about that. doesn’t seem like my writing style which is why i won’t read them & will just watch!
💋🎄
Lord Of the rings is definitely an amazing movie can’t wait to hear what you think. I named my 1st love Aka my Boston terrier Smeagol if that says anything. Have you ever watched True romance? That’s my all time favorite movie 🍿 🖤
I haven’t!
You should totally give it a try!! Always makes me feel better ❤️🩹

Might I suggest if you're going to do gaming staying on UA-cam. You're already established here, so creating a gaming channel you'll get monetized faster, not to mention that Twitch has recently cut how much streamers make from 70% to 50%, whereas UA-cam is still set to the 70/30 split. UA-cam allows for streaming, so it might just be easier to do it all in one place.
