I hate new years resolutions.
A - Shouldn't they happen on your birthday since that's when your new year ACTUALLY starts?
B - We've weakened the word "resolution" by applying it to goals that only last 30 days, if that.
But I do love a good excuse to make lists. So here's the deal folks. This is the list of goals I've been working on... and will continue to work on. GOALS. None of that break-a-promise-to-yourself "resolution" garbage.
- Read 100 books.
- Move to NY
- Graduate (ACTUALLY THIS TIME).- eta May
- Save $3000 by June
- Throw one thing away every day for a month.
- Continue to lose weight... -100 LBS total... that's the goal.
Life is so good right now. I'm half dating a NICE boy. I'm working! I'm working out (with a trainer, even)! I need to practice. But I actually WANT to. Tax return is on the way. So many of those goals are close enough to taste. I have a routine... but it's flexible and includes such things as: going to the library once a week, exercising my body, writing blogs, working and doing an hour of creativity a day. This is the life.

Know what's really awesome!?
I don't have to go to school this semester.
I just need to finish my piano proficiency test.
Then I have a degree (useless? not sure yet).
I don't have to buy books, or give motivational speeches to get myself to attend.
Also, I get to keep my two campus jobs.
And Probably get a third.
I'm considered an Alumnus.
So I get to keep my gym membership at a discount rate.
My body weighs 43 pounds less than it did at this time last year.
I've learned a whole book of new recipes.
Stuff is slowly disappearing from my apartment - in a good way.
Life and Scheduling should be simple.
Dr. A's grant fell through.
He can't offer me the discount.
I don't have to take choir.
I don't have to deal with "environment vs cost, is it worth it?" anymore.
I have a back up plan for NYC.
Just in case my savings doesn't cover enough.
Time to polish up several versions of my resume.
Time to money diet, food diet and resource diet like a champ!
