Okay this is a few weeks late, but better late than never, its a little over 3 months until my 20th, and I have made a little bit more progress since last time.
Number 3 has made a little progress and also had a little bit of a set back. Turns out my medication isn't working as well as it should, that was obvious since I was still having seizures, however my OCD has got a little better, and so has the anxiety, it might not be a massive improvement but any is better than none.
I've continued to work on number 4 and started to eat vegetables I used to eat, that is despite protesting how much I hated them for years, although I'm still yet to try food that I can't pronounce.
Number 6 is definitely a working progress, I am becoming more happy with the person I've become but I can still be pretty critical of myself.
For number 8 I have learnt 2 new recipes, although I'm yet to try one out, but the first one was successful so I'm hopeful for the second.
Number 9 was to write, and I have actually made progress with the book I started to write, although it definitely isn't enough.
In terms of finishing 5 things that I started, I decided to turn Christmas wrapping into a project and decorated everyone's differently, I also started to make a travel list, I have completed it for now however I know that this will gain additions over time.
Over Christmas it also got pretty nostalgic, reliving some happy memories, it also included watching my favourite Christmas film which has never actually changed.
I have obviously written more with making progress on my book, travel lists and a few other things.
I've definitely spent more quality time with my family over my Christmas break, since in June/July I'll be starting placement, this is definitely important.
In terms of confidence, I feel it has improved a little more for whatever reason, don't get me wrong I still have bad days but I have managed to survive without make up for a little while. For me this is a big deal since it has acted as a sort of security blanket for so many years.
In terms of general happiness, I feel like this has improved although I have forgot to see if I've smiled at something everyday...obviously.
I've also made progress with number 18, I know that I need to stand by what I believe in, no matter what that is. I also feel like this has possibly contributed into me feeling more happy and content.
SMILE...I have definitely smiled a lot in 2015 compared to other years, but this can always be improved. After all laughter is the best medicine for anything.
Enjoying my last year has definitely been started and I definitely intend to improve on this even more.
So overall I have a little over 3 months to complete 5 things and improve on the others, which I think is doable. I'll try and keep this update, especially if I manage to complete this before I turn 20.
