Or at least that's how it would've gone down had this been a tangible piece of writing... And the year 1974.
Wow. 2010. I feel old. Who knew that soon I would have to start dating things with double-digits in the year column again? 4/2/1 .../5 .../9 was just so easy to write--the 0 was so superfluous. Now I have to put a 10 at the end? Bummer.
2009 was a pretty terrible year. I earned almost no money and racked up a heck of a lot of debt. I only had a parttime job, and before that I was not a student and not working for 4 months. Relationship wise, I feel like one bad one simply cancels out the good one. Also, I did a few things during the year that I wasn't too proud of. All of these things I'd like to change.
I feel like 2010 has gotten off to a good start. I spent New Year's with Bryan and his family. They were all super nice, and I had a great time. Maybe this year there won't be a bad relationship...
New Year's Resolution #1: Spend Less Money
So far I've spent very little money, but then again it's January 3rd. Although, I did finally make it to the store to buy lunches to take to work as opposed to buying lunch out. That's going to save about $40/week. Also, I just finished my first day as a fulltime employee at The North Face. It's not exactly what I thought I was going to be doing with my BS from UM, but fulltime with benefits isn't a terrible start to the year.
New Year's Resolution #2: Be More Productive
I've got to stop sitting on my ass all the time. Yesterday I packed up some of my sister's stuff, and today I did a couple loads of laundry. It's not as productive as I'm capable of, but it's a start. Tomorrow I'm going to try and get to a store that sells yarn so I can start crocheting again. I feel like that will make me a more productive person.
New Year's Resolution #3: Lose Weight
This is kind of one of those resolutions that never dies. Why? Because I never actually do it. This year, enough is enough. It's going to get done. Every day that passes by makes it harder and harder to actually lose the weight. If I can't lose the weight when I'm 23, how am I going to do it at 33? Also, eating less helps accomplish Resolution #1. Although, when did logical reasoning ever help anyone lose weight? I'm going to go with "Never".
This year, all 3 of my resolutions are significant tests of willpower. We'll see how long I can keep them up...
