New Year 2013

Happy New Year! These three days have been quite productive..I guess too much work sometimes will boost my productivity..Actually, I wasn't a fan of listing resolutions for new year; however, on new year's eve, while I got sick marking lab reports, I stopped a while and listed down what I wanna achieve this year:

2013 Resolutions:

1. Pray on time, just right after azan. Been trying to do this since last 2 months..but it's been quite an on-off situation. Thus, hopefully I manage to make it a habit starting this year.
2. Read more books! I bought many books during Big Bad Wolf sale last year when I didn't finish reading 2011's books..However, managed to resist from buying fictions and fill up the shelves with motivation and cook books instead. Have to finish reading all before the next BBW.
3. Sleep 5-7 hours a day. I need a healthy sleeping pattern.
4. Try at least one new recipe per week. My mum keeps telling me to avoid buying meals, so i need to cook my own meal - MSG free. Though i cant stop myself from buying meals outside, at least I will try my best to cook dinner everyday, and try new recipe each week to make my cooking journey more interesting.
5. Less gossip, more 'Ilm. Finding new and useful knowledge everyday will be my priority. Will not bother bout celebrities, singers, other unrelated people's matter, etc. So, stop asking me things related to that. I won't know anything unless I heard from someone or somewhere.
6. Save more, shop less. This will be the most challenging resolution ever! I want to save for traveling purpose, although my dad told me to buy a house n invest, i'll keep that in mind..but I save more for travel..I'm still young, single n healthy (Alhamdulillah) so wanna go see places while i can..
7. Obtain my Masters Degree. I'm on my way there, inshaaAllah...   

There're many more, but enough with 7 on list..In general, i just wanna be a better person, a better muslimah...so, 2013 please be nice...
