Resolutions

Another year gone, and I managed to keep my 2008 New Year resolution: no chocolate bars. Not 'no chocolate' - a blanket ban like that would have been impossible to achieve for a chocoholic like me! So it was anything that comes in a bar-shaped form, and no cheating by melting it down. My range of choice was limited to Creme Eggs, Aero Bubbles, Freddos, Buttons and Maltesers.


There were exceptions – a day at Cadbury World, and a couple of pieces from a block of NZ Cadbury Dairy Milk. Otherwise I managed fine, and it's cured me of having too much chocolate, although it's still a favourite.

On to this year's resolution, which is slightly harder to measure: wear more colour. I recently rearranging my drawers and placed all my white and black tops in one drawer and all my coloured tops in the other. The black and white drawer was stuffed so full that the drawer nearly broke under the weight! I've kickstarted the year by wearing a hot pink top and I've painted my toenails hot blue and pink to celebrate. My aim is for a more cheerful, invigorating wardrobe. It's a very subjective resolution this time around so I guess I'll have to run through my photos throughout the year to see how I perform. Here's to a colourful 2009!
