This Time Next Year | Update

Last year I was tagged in 'This Time Next Year'. The rules were you had to set yourself goals for the next year and to write how you were going to achieve those. In this post, I will be reflecting on what I have or haven't achieved.

I will be driving in my own car
I ACTUALLY LEARNED HOW TO DRIVE. I finally did it! I really pushed myself because I knew I needed to, and honestly I'm so glad I passed. I wrote a post last year about Passing My Driving Test

I will have travelled
Well, I didn't exactly get to travel around Europe for a few weeks as planned. But, I did get to visit Canada, Ghent, and Disneyland Paris so all in all, I think I did pretty well! I was so happy I got to experience three different places last year, I still have blogs and videos to go up so I'll post those when I can.

Be still blogging
I'm so happy that blogging is still a big part of my life. I've been invited to some amazing events and blogger meet-ups, and I've got some lovely blogging friends that I've met. You can read my blog's birthday post here where I talk about my blog a bit more.

I will have worked in the industry
So this hasn't really happened. Most of my relevant runner work happened when I was still at university. My current job is relative to my course by making videos for internal and external clients, and I get to do admin and producery tasks. It would be great to go further afield and get some experience in different areas of TV and film.

It's also quite hard to be seen in this oversaturated market, especially when people have more experience than you.

Be more confident
I still need to work on this. My self-esteem, confidence and self-belief are non-existent. That's not going to help me get anywhere in life.

It will be interesting to see where I get with these by next year!

What goals have you set yourself? I'd love to know.

Thank you to Cody for tagging me, I really love the idea of this tag!

I will be driving in my own car
As soon as I hand in my last deadline I'm learning to drive end of! I move around so much I need to be able to transport myself easily and not look like a crazy bag lady...plus I really need it for the industry I'm going into!

I will have travelled
I'd love to go around Europe, and back over to America and explore more! I know this on my 2017 goals post, but looking back at my bank balance it's going to be quite hard to bring it to life! But, I will keep trying to save and live my dream of travelling for a few weeks!

Be still blogging
I'd love to still keep up my blogging on a regular basis as I'm really enjoying it, and hopefully I will have done some exciting things to blog about! And attend more blogger meet up, that'd be fab.

I will have worked in the industry
I have big plans to be as tenacious as possible to get into working on films, be it more runner work, production assisting, literally anything I can do for films or TV series. I will not give up because it's my passion and I will keep trying until it happens!

Be more confident
This is something I want to try and work on, because I have become both less confident in how I look, and with going out (of which I've limited myself for a number of reasons) and I missed how confident I used to feel. I was never super vain when I was younger, I still hated and analysed my flaws but sometimes I could feel my confidence radiating out of me if I had a nice outfit on. And I want that feeling back of not caring if people are looking at me, whereas now I completely cover up (maybe a tad too much) because I try to feel comfortable but then I look like a whale.

I will be tagging these lovely people!

I struggled a bit to think of what I want to be doing (and I mean realistically) but I'd be quite happy if I could be doing/could have done the things above! I wish you guys luck, and tag me in a tweet when you've posted!

This time next year...
