What did you achieve in 2011?

Are New Years Resolutions worth making? I don't know. I seem to make the same ones every year which means of course, that I repeatedly fail. I guess it gives you inspiration for the beginning of the year, like, ''this year is going to be different, better'' but ultimately it is the things we don't do that we dwell on rather than the things we really have accomplished. I can easily sit here and list all of the things I wish I had done in 2011, moan about the way things should have turned out but 2011 is the past. It's just another year. We have to accept it and move on to 2012.  I have decided to share 11 of my greatest achievements from last year - What did you achieve in 2011?

1. I travelled around Australia for 9 weeks, my biggest achievement.

2. I have flown right round to the other side of the world alone. Little me, a big plane, thousands of miles and a Big Wide World.

3. I got through the dread of college and passed my exams (then went partying!).

4. I have worked hard on my blog in the last few months and feel excited for the year ahead.

5. I finally went Ice Skating!!

6. I grew up and learnt to enjoy my own company (days down on the beach; just me, myself and I)

7. I snorkeled on the Great Barrier Reef! (A picture we took with our underwater camera)

7. My style has become more experimental, I even started doing outfit posts!

        9. I met the cast of Home and Away, had my photo taken with a handsome Australian man and watched them filming a Soap I have grown up with!

10. I have read some beautiful books this year, a crazy amount really. A Thousand Splendid Suns being the best.

11. I have created some great memories with important people. Holidays, trips, birthdays and nights out.

Let me know your highlights and achievements of 2011!! No negativity...
