2015 - Did I succeed?

I can't believe 2015 is almost over! At the beginning of the year I wrote down 9 goals I wanted to achieve, so here's a quick review of how I've done this year.

Get a better job ✓ This was one of the main goals I really wanted to achieve in 2015. I am so happy I did it!
Continue my Russian studies ✗ I didn't realise how having a full time job would leave me with so little time to do anything else. I haven't had the chance to continue my studies at college but I have been trying to learn more on my own.
Spend more time with my friends and family ✓ I spent such a great week in Estonia with my family and also had the chance to catch up with some old friends. Tristan and I also kept in contact with both sides of our families and talked with them almost every day.
Eat healthy ✓ ✗ I've been eating quite healthily throughout the year and have made improvements but I know I can do better.
Get fit ✓ ✗ I've been exercising as often as I can but have also noticed that with the days getting shorter I have lost my motivation. I joined a gym this Autumn and am trying my hardest to find the time to work out.
Take a trip to America ✗ I didn't manage to visit America but I still had the chance to travel to a few new places in 2015.
Save money ✓ I've done much better than I thought I would. Tristan and I have made a couple of plans for the future and I am excited to start saving money properly!
Be more organised and productive ✓ Keeping a diary, making lists and having a calendar have made my life so much more organised. Every Sunday or Monday I am planning my week and writing down little tasks. I never thought that having a notebook would help me to become more productive.
Blog more ✓ ✗ Sadly, I haven't been blogging as much I would have liked. I've been working more on the appearance of my blog lately and after some help from Tristan it looks much more professional!

Kayla Itsines Bikini Body Guide - Starting again

The last time I posted about my workout regime was in November last year when I started the Kayla Itsines BBG healthy eating plan and 12 week workout sessions. I think I got up to week 4 before I lost my motivation because of illness and Christmas. My friend Marianne and I started BBG again on the 5th of January with thousands of other girls and joined #thekaylamovement and #kaylasarmy to share our journey along this painful but exciting path. You can read my first post about the BBG programme here as I am explaining a bit more on how I 'found' Kayla and how the training works. I have done BBG for 5 weeks now (the first 2 weeks we did pre-training) and I'm feeling quite positive. I've not seen much progress myself - I still have my weak areas like tummy, bum and thighs. I do feel much stronger though! I'm doing all of the workouts properly, I have strength in my legs and arms - it is quite easy to do 10 push ups and continue with triceps and mountain clim...

Esimene trimester ehk esimesed kolm kuud \\ beebi number 2

Tere blogi, Jah, üllatus, üllatus, ma olen rase! Esimene trimester on läbi ja teen küsimused-vastused varjandis blogipostituse. Ausalt öeldes ei olnud mul just kõige kergem algus- jõetus, väsimus, iiveldamine ja oksendamine kestsid 6. nädalast kuni 13. nädalani. Ei tuleks vist eriti huvitav postitus, kui ma peaks kirjutama, kuidas ma kõik need nädalad voodis veetsin ja mitu korda päevas vetsupotti kallistasin, nii siis vastan pigem mõnedele esimese trimestriga seotud küsimustele. Kuidas sa avastasid, et sa oled rase ja kuidas sa Tristanile ütlesid? Ühel reede hommikul ärkasin varem, et trenni teha. Jooksin jooksulindi peal umbes 30 minutit ja terve selle aja tundsin end imelikult. Umbes 5 minutit enne jooksmise lõppu tuli mul üles mega suur röhitsus ja natuke maomahla. See tunne oli nii tuttav! Tagasi tuppa tulles tegin veel Tristanile nalja, et olen vist rase. Terveks päevaks jäi see mõte mind kummitama ja ma ütlesin Tristanile, et peaks igaks juhuks rasedustesti tegema. Jä...

10 things to do in Rockhampton

I have still a couple more posts coming up about my Australian trip. I hope they are an interesting read! After Brisbane , we flew to Tristan's hometown Rockhampton where we spent the remaining 2 weeks of our holiday. Rockhampton is a small city in Queensland with a population of around 62,000 people. Rockhampton experiences over 300 days of sunshine each year, which means it is a good place for tourism and outdoor activities. Known as the "Beef Capital of Australia" there is much more to do than just sit in the pub and eat burgers! I have made a list of 10 things you can do around Rockhampton. 1. Rockhampton Kershaw Botanical Gardens are a well visited attraction in Rockhampton. The park has many paved walking paths, rest areas, drinking fountains and beautiful scenery with many palms and tropical flowers. 2. Quay Street in Rockhampton is full of beautiful architecture and old buildings. The city centre (main street) is not very big but I think we spent at ...
