I have been negligent when it comes to my blog, I apologize. It has been the most hectic last couple of months. November was midterm and papers, December was final exams and papers, the holidays and well January has only just begun. There is lots of news in the Lincoln residence, Mr. Lincoln has moved back to the States to re-find himself and now I have a new roommate. She is a lovely person from the West Coast, I look forward to getting to know this interesting girl better!
I have quite a few resolutions for 2010, and since it is a new decade I really do hope that I will follow through on at least a few of these.
1. Get a membership to the University Gym. Two-fold reason: vanity and health. Vanity does not need an explanation. Health, well as much as I love my father, I have unfortunately inherited his body type which if I am not careful will lead to diabetes. So gym it is.
2. Be more open about my feelings, I have been on more than one occasion told that I am cryptic or closed. I've developed quite a tough carapace in the last few years, it is about time I crack it open a little. I will hopefully use this (for example: to tell this gentleman that I have a slight soft spot for him).
3. Be more financially aware. Start saving and planning. I can't live pay-check to pay-check forever!
4. Plaster and paint all the rooms in this apartment. Since I don't plan on moving out any time soon.
5. Start taking photos again with my old Pentax. I've been taking some self-portraits, trying more and more to compose the shot. It's hard!
6. I think this is a top priority for me. School. I need to be more focused and spend more time writing and reading. I would like to make the Dean's List by next winter!
So those are my resolutions! I hope that I will be able to keep at them! You are all my witnesses to my 2010 vows.
Oh... and I've been thinking I've re-doing and re-starting my food blog....2010 is looking good!
All the best in 2010.
i like your goals too. you are focusing on stuff you are already good at...i mean school....cooking. you are the master of disaster in those departments.
ReplyDeletesaving money is hard. my best advice is to just set up another saving account and have the money come out automatically when you get paid. my husband has done this for years and now he has a nice little nest egg (good thing because all i have is debt!).
thanks for the advice on the nails. i have GOT to do something about them. paying for manicures isn't going to work (because of aforementioned debt and subsequent austerity program the man has put me on).
love you!
