My New Year's Resolutions!

Do you write down your New Year's Resolutions? I haven't, until now, but I really feel like sharing them with you, so enjoy! Also, I'm going to ask you to help me keep them, by telling me if I'm straying off track! Believe me, I will need the support when life whirls up in front of me!

But let's dive right into it, I have a few :)


1) Get Healthier
Isn't this on top of everyone's list? As for me, I want to eat healthier and exercise more. I'm not going to go to a gym, but just find ways to exercise in my daily life. I'll do a separate blog post on it later today :)

2) Get involved in charity
I haven't quite decided what kind of charity yet, but I've been on my way to do some charity work for years. This year, I'm going to actually do it.

3) Read more!
I love reading, and I always have. However, when I'm busy with my day-to-day life (which is pretty much always), then I don't find the time to read. To keep me on track with this one, I have added the "What I'm reading" to my blog (to the right).

4) Never let more than a week pass between blog posts
I love blogging, and I'm not going to let months pass between my visits here. I want to keep my blog alive!

5) Keep my makeup collection organized
You know how the deal goes, you organize everything, then you start using your makeup... and a week later, everything is back to where it started! I'm not going to let that happen this year.

6) Host at least 2 give-aways for my lovely followers
This one pretty much explaines itself, I think. I've never hosted a give-away, so I'm thinking that my first one will be in summer when the blog will celebrate it's first birthday!


So, are you going to help me keep those? I need your support!
What are your New Year's Resolutions? Please tell me in the comments ;)

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year everyone! Can you believe it, it's already 2011!
I hope that the new year brings you all love, health and happiness - and I also want to thank you for following and reading my blog. It means the world to me ;)

I took those pictures this evening, at twelve o'clock. Some of those fireworks were ours, others were my neighbour's. Icelanders are big fans of fireworks, and about 00:15, the air is always thick with smoke and has the pink and green colours of fireworks. It's truly amazing :)
Enjoy the pics, and have the greatest year!

This one was ours - it's so pretty, pink and green :)

I couldn't resist taking a picture of this one - those are hugely popular here, and everybody loves them, kids, adults and elderly alike. I held the one pictured :) I don't know what you call them in English (if you know, I'd love to hear it in the comments ;), but a direct translation from Icelandic would be "starlight". I love those, to me they mean that I have a whole new year ahead of me, full of wonderful opportunities!

Love, Miss Diorista

P.S. Stay tuned for my New Year's Resolutions - I'll post them tomorrow!
