101 goals in 1001 days, December 2015 update

I've now been keeping this blog going for a few months and I've written a couple of updates about my progress in achieving my Day Zero list of goals. Not only is it now almost the end of 2015 but with 532 days remaining, I'm almost halfway to the deadline with almost half of my goals either completed or in progress. (Note: goals listed in grey are detailed in previous blog entries)

Now completed: 

2. Dress up for Halloween
Halloween fell on a Saturday this year and I was working in the Shelter shop so we put in a little effort to make the store spooky. My manager got into it the most with a witch costume and cauldron of sweets for customers, while I wore my favourite black velvet dress with thick boots and goth jewellery, inspired by the Addams Family, the coven from American Horror Story, and the girls from The Craft.

55. Go to the beach
A few months ago I went on a spontaneous day trip with my parents and my gran to the nearby seaside towns of Dunbar, St Abbs and Eyemouth. We saw the seal who hangs out in the Dunbar harbour, I dipped my toes in the sea, collected shells and walked in the sand at St Abbs, and we had a fish supper and amazing ice cream at Giacopazzi's restaurant in Eyemouth.
