Weekend Reads #70: The Best of 2016.

Saturday, December 31, 2016



Another round of Weekend Reads! Only this time, instead of bombing you with new stuff you'll be too busy to read (hey, no judging! It's New Year's after all), I decided to remind you of the best things you could have read on Wandering Polka Dot so far on weekends. So without further ado, let's roll!


New Year's Goals You Could Add To Your List

Thursday, December 29, 2016



Apparently, I'm not a woman of a plan. What a hideous way to start off a post that talks about New Year's goals. No, wait, don't go!

I mean, I was; I made a detailed schedule for the blog and felt committed to it—only to fall ill just in time to not finish those posts that needed to be finished, let alone follow the schedule. Heck, I didn't even open my laptop. I felt I should say goodbye to everything and everyone, as the previous couple of nights were pretty heavy on me. (I hate getting sick. I never do. And then I do and then I freak out.)

Anyway, here's something I think you would find useful. If you're a New Year's resolutions freak like I am, but you're not sure what goals you could set for yourself, check this out. Nothing is too demanding, yet it might help you in your everyday life, or just make you feel like you own it. Or make you actually own it. 😉

Weekend Reads #69

Friday, December 23, 2016



I wrote an introduction to this post yesterday, stating This time I'm actually NOT posting from the train, even though I'm leaving my apartment in mere minutes to catch one. False. I am typing this out on a train. Trying out discipline and finishing the post on a Thursday. This is true though—but I obviously need to try more, and, like, wake up on time. I have so much to do by the end of the year—you might remember this list—and of course I do, you probably do too. I constantly keep on pushing myself and making myself do more and more, and it's been years of trying to get to the point where I've done it all. It's just that along the way I keep adding more and more tasks. By the way, I'm in no way trying to brag about this—I actually hate that it's so. And on top of everything, I lack self-discipline. Do you think it's a personality trait or not? I wish I could train myself, but just end up thinking oh no it's just the way I am. I'd love to hear your thoughts! This is all true. Woe is me!
Anyway, here are some interesting links for this week.
Oh, and have a very merry Christmas if you're celebrating! I wish you a blessed holiday with your family and friends.

Weekend Reads #68

Hi there, and if by any chance you stopped by WPD two days ago in search for your weekly dose of information and inspiration, sorry! Remember that list of things I wanted to do by the end of the year? When you add it to an endless stream of job applications, things can get complicated. So here they are, a tad later than they were supposed to be. A lot of videos today!

Hello from the train. The pattern, eh? I got up at 6 AM today so basically I now might go to sleep and wake up tomorrow. If you feel the same though, I urge you to check Weekend Reads first though. So without further ado, here they are. Hope you have a good weekend. 😊

You may guess where I am at the moment. OK, if you said "on a train", you were right. Fridays, huh? For me, it's another check-up at the orthodontist—as if it were not enough to see her every other week, it's every week now because I need to get it done before I move. Hah! Yes I'm moving countries soon again, but don't feel like sharing the whole story yet because it's BIG. So big it scares me sometimes. Anyway... I was telling. Friday. Weekend Reads. I hope you have a nice one, friends. Enjoy!

Things You Need To Do By The End Of The Year

Thursday, December 1, 2016

Last year I wrote an article on things one should do in order to end the year on the right foot. While I still stand by the things I said (check them out!), I decided to be more specific this year. Here’s my list, hopefully it will inspire you to do some of those things by the end of the year yourself, or give you some ideas!
