My 2017 is off to a slow and leisurely start, I spent most of my day in my PJs and being comfy and cozy. 
I ate pizza.
Brewed a delicious cup of peppermint mocha! 
Watched a movie with my family- Chaar, a Bengali movie from 2014 which consists of 4 short stories in one movie. A really enjoyed this movie. 

The majority of my day was spend thinking about my goals for this year. 
Honestly it hasn't sunk in that this year is here. 2017 is here and it doesn't seem real. 
What is life!

I am low-key excited for this year. 
2016 was a good year for me and I really hope 2017 is also a good year.
