Oh lord. I just saw my New Years Resolutions for 2010 and suffice it to say, I may or may not have kept up with any of them. So here’s another go at them. And hopefully with my 24 years comes some sort of wisdom :)
1. Be (more) open to trying new things (whether it comes to school-related activities, restaurants, visiting a new city, etc)
2. Keep up the hard work with school
3. Invest and divest wisely
4. Be more up front with my feelings
5. Prioritize!
Here’s to a great 2011! 2010 was good to me so I’m hoping the goodness will carry on :)
I wish things weren’t like this.
But on the plus side, it doesn’t suck as much as it did before.
Hopes:
- I conquer my new chapter
- I make the new apt a home-away-from-home
- I won’t miss some people too much
Dreams:
- Good grades
- Great food
- Amazing company
Plans:
- 4.0 (‘nuff said)
- Travel!
- Get a paid, amazing internship over the summer
- Figured out what I wanted to do…
- And went after it…
- And got it! :)
- Starting a new chapter!
- Closing the door on old chapters
- Traveled quite a bit around the country in the first half of the yr
- Will hopefully travel a bit more in the latter half!
- Seeing my nephews reminds me of how old they’re getting.. and consequently how old I’m getting
