10 Things I Want To Do Before The End Of 2026

 

As we move through 2026, I have realised there are still quite a few things I would love to accomplish before the year comes to an end.

Some goals are big.

Some are small.

And some are simply things that would make me happy.

Here are ten things I would love to do before the end of 2026.

1. Continue Growing Miss La Diva

One of my biggest goals is to continue growing Miss La Diva.

Not because I want to become famous, but because I want to help people.

Especially women.

I hope that by sharing my experiences, thoughts and stories, other women will recognise parts of themselves and feel a little less alone.

2. Lose At Least 15 Kilos

Health is a big focus for me this year.

I want to feel fitter, healthier and more energetic.

My goal is to lose at least 15 kilos before my trip in October.

3. Enjoy My Two-Month Trip To Morocco

In October, I will be spending two months in Morocco.

I am looking forward to seeing family, relaxing, travelling and enjoying the food and culture.

Sometimes slowing down is just as important as being productive.

4. Create More Memories

I don't want to spend the rest of the year only working.

I want to make memories.

The best moments in life are often the simple ones.

5. Visit Suriname One Day

This may not happen in 2026, but it is definitely on my list.

As someone who is half Hindustani and half Dutch, I would love to visit Suriname and learn more about my roots.

6. Keep Learning

One thing I never want to stop doing is learning.

Whether it is improving my writing, learning languages or discovering new skills, I believe there is always room to grow.

7. Refresh My Wardrobe

Like many women, I enjoy treating myself every now and then.

I would love to buy some new clothes and create a wardrobe that reflects who I am today.

8. Improve My Lifestyle

I already cook a lot of fresh meals, but I want to continue improving my eating habits and overall lifestyle.

Small changes can make a big difference over time.

9. Stay Positive

Life will always have challenges.

My goal is not to avoid problems but to keep moving forward with a positive mindset.

That is something I have worked hard to develop over the years.

10. Look Back On A Fantastic Year

When 2026 comes to an end, I hope I can look back and say:

"I gave it my best."

That is all anyone can really ask of themselves.

And if I can do that, I will be proud.

Love,

Shavida

For the second time in history, scientists are transmitting communications to extraterrestrials.

Image
NASA scientists hope to communicate with extraterrestrials. They've drafted a message that they want to launch into space soon. That message is more than a simple 'hi, how are you?' The goal is to give the aliens as much knowledge about our civilization as possible. "The message incorporates basic mathematical and physical ideas to construct a universal means of communication, followed by information regarding the biochemical makeup of life on Earth," said Jonathan Jiang, the primary author. The so-called Beacon In The Galaxy (BITG) is written in binary code and concludes with a digital image of a man and a woman, as well as an invitation to reply. It's delivered from China's FAST (Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope), the world's largest radio telescope. This is only the second time a message like this has been sent into space. This happened for the first time in 1974. Not everyone, incidentally, is ecstatic. Experts are concerned th...
