Hello 2015!

Hello 2015! It's time to set some goals for myself. I would say resolutions but I've never been big on the whole New Years resolution thing. Goals just seems more attainable and I would love love love to see these through. 

• Take care of myself.  I want to go to the gym or take a class regularly. Even if it's just once a week! It's still better than nothing. I can't ignore that I'm getting older and I have to take better care of myself. That means I should probably stop skipping my check-ups with the doctor too.
• Travel somewhere new. Preferably some place international. (I already know where I want to go!) 
• Get involved. After I watched Emma Watson's UN speech, I haven't been able to stop thinking about how I'd like to do something. I was and still am so inspired by her words. I don't know how or what but I'd like to give back and volunteer at least once this year. 
• New side project.  My best friend and I have been talking the last couple of months about collaborating on a project. We're still figuring it out but I'm very excited! 
• Keep moving forward. I said this last year and I'll say it again: I want to continue moving forward and being less complacent. I want to challenge myself. I want to remember to follow my instincts and do what makes me happy. To always make time for friends, family and me. 

Now for some bookish hopes! 

• I want to read all my purchased but unread books. There's a huge stack of them right by my desk.
• Reading challenges: Goodreads (175 books), Dive Into Diversity (10 books) and Flights of Fantasy (hosted by myself & Alexa; 20-25 books). 
• I'd like to re-read my "favorite" books and see if I still feel the same way. 
• Continue to read a variety or books (more adult!) and outside of my comfort zone. 
• Keep having fun with my blog! Come up with new features, collaborate with bloggers, reach out to authors. I put a lot of work and love into my blog but I never want to take it (or myself) too seriously. It's meant to be a small but fun part of my life where I share my love of books. 

Those are my goals for 2015! What are yours?
