Reflections on 2015 and Looking to 2016
Reviving my dead LJ once in a year, lol.
So apparently I skipped doing this for 2014 oops. To review my 2014 resolutions…
Pass JLPT N1 (Completed in 2014)
Finish reading a book in Japanese (I didn’t even finish reading any books in any languages LOL)
I would really love to visit Japan again (Completed Jan 2014, Dec 2014, Nov 2015)
Lose weight and be more diligent in keeping my complexion clear (I go for facials now so it kind of counts? Extractions are still painful though T__T)
