Life changes.
I’m actually not a fan of new years resolutions, but the start of a new year is a good time to reset the things in your life that you want to change. 2011 was probably one of the hardest years of my life so far and I am looking forward to a fresh start in 2012.
I’d like to start exercising, even if it is just a couple times a week. I’d also like to lose weight, which I say every year, but I need to seriously shed the pounds I have put on in the last few months. I’ve started Weight Watchers again today, knowing that I am heading to Las Vegas next week and will likely cheat, but wanted to give myself a week to get used to it. I know dropping the lbs won’t happen right away, but I am willing to commit to making a change.
Some other resolutions: Be a more “glass half full” type of person. Try not to identify the negative first and approach things with an open mind. Also, don’t party as hard as I think I can or as hard as I used to be able to. Things never end up good when I try to keep up and push myself. Self-control. And last, make new friends. I have some amazing friends now, I parted ways with some friends, I don’t see some friends as often as I’d like to since they’ve moved. Meeting new people is always a good thing, but I would like to make a conscious effort to do it in 2012.
Now that I have written these all down, they seem more like life changes than resolutions. And I am OK with that. 2012 is going to be a good year, I can feel it.
*More resolutions/goals/plans for 2012 (because I caught up on tumblr and you all inspired me!): Be more creative. I painted a few things last year, but didn’t stick with it. I’d love to redecorate some rooms in my house. I also haven’t picked up my DSLR in years. I need a creative outlet. Cook more and eat out less, because I love to cook and eating out is so expensive. I should also clip coupons again. I have been slacking there in the last few months.
