16 new years resolutions
(For those of you who are friends with me on facebook, YES I did this as a note too. This is slightly more in depth.)YES I have 16 new years resolutions. YES I plan on completing them all. :)
- Don't visit my parents until June, unless Kyle visits. They stress me out entirely too much!
- Make straight As! I know I can study at least an hour per day, per class.
- Get a good job. At least it will be one less thing for my mom to stress me out about. It kind of seems like I could enter into the IT field (scary, I know), even though my degree is in engineering.
- Come up with a thesis topic. Whether I start on it or not this year is outside of my scope. I don't know anything about Engineering Managment yet, but I hope I figure out enough to write a thesis on it by the time next year is over.
- Get that money right!!! Paying off student loans, credit cards, etc.
- Visit the Mary Kay museum in Dallas! Lots of people have said it's a great experience.
- Visit my friends around the US, and travel with some friends from here. Visiting all the Texas peoples--there's lots!; going to Chi-town with Zeke... I'm sure there's more. I'm just tired of being so bored all the time.
- Lose weight. YES, it's the same one I make every year, but I'm going to keep making it until I get it right!
- Earn a Mary Kay car. I know that I can do this one. Also, I would like to have a spiffy car to drive around when I take these road trips!
- Get on-track for being a Mary Kay director! This one goes with the previous resolution, but I want to have them both written down as a visual reminder.
- Be a good role model for my little sister in Big Brothers Big Sisters! She's a really sweet girl, and I want to show her the world a little (oddball) bit at a time.
- Rent or buy a house. OMFG I need to stay away from apartments! They're just frustrating and I never feel like I have enough space. Also, as much as I like living alone, it would be fun to have some peoples to share my space with. I love my cat, but when the dishes don't get washed, I can't exactly blame it on her. ^^
- Use my planner regularly. Regularly meaning twice a day. I think it will be tricky at first, but once I get used to always using it, I will begin to properly utilize it!
- Learn to play my guitar. Yes, I want to be just like Gail, but I think I might go toward the "self-taught" track first.
- Cook a new recipe at least once a month. I love cooking, and it's cheaper than always going out to eat! Also, if anyone wants to sample my crazy cooking, or be a co-chef, tell me such! (Yes, even my Texas homies... when I come to visit you I GUESS I could cook for you once or twice... lol)
- Don't forget about myself! I think this one is the most important. No matter what people resolve to do or not do, they forget to have benchmarks for their goals and rewards for their successes. I know what my resolutions are, and I already have the first few benchmarks and rewards set for them. Instead of trying to keep daily or weekly progress on all of these, I think I'm going to stick with monthly progress reports for myself. Also, failing isn't a bad thing, it just means I have to keep working at it!
