The 2014 Official Wrap Up Post


It's the end of 2014! Can you BELIEVE it?! I can't. I really exceeded all my expectations on this year.

I wrote 114 reviews, which is insane. And I still have a gazillion to catch up on. 2015 is gonna be crazypants.

I originally planned on reading 52 books, then when I beat that, I increased my goal to 75. THEN when I beat THAT, I increased my goal to 127. When I beat THAT goal, I just figured I'd stop setting goals for 2014 and just kept reading. LOL. I ended the year at 141!!! WOOHOO!!! And that made me reach something on my bucket list: Read 100 books in a year. As of next year, I'm still going to start with 52 and go from there. I'd like to focus more of my attention on writing than reading in 2015.

I also met another bucket list goal: Have ombre hair. And I still have it! I might be changing it in 2015. Maybe... most likely. But right now I still love it, so, it stays.


Since I only reached two things on my bucket list in 2014 (which is appalling, by the way), I'm going to make sure that 2015 is the year I complete A LOT of things on the bucket list.
