Quickly approaching: 2011.

I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous going into this new year. Just once, I would like it to go at least partially well, and I'd love to stay on track with what I'm doing. I've had a lot on my mind concerning the approach of 2011, and so far, I've come to 0 solutions for any of it. I could go ahead and make a list of resolutions, I suppose, but in reality, is there any point? How often do we actually keep them? Right.
Maybe I'll try anyway, and the none of you that actually read this can hold me accountable. In 2011, I'm going to:
1) move back out, and stay out.
2) continue working, and stay in school.
3) finally live completely independently.
4) get at least two tattoos.
5) go back to University.
6) form decent relationships with people.
7) work out a minimum of 3 times a week.
8) work on my relationship with my mother.
9) take pictures every day.
10) do better at updating this.
11) get Nati Eats up and running, seriously.
12) travel, a lot. Maybe even go to Greece.
13) stay organized.
14) start working on several projects.
15) finish a goddamn sketchbook.
That's all I can think of. I want to say "quit smoking," but I'm trying to be realistic...
If that's what I'm aiming for, I suppose really all I can say is this. I would like to remember everything that I learned in 2010, and carry it with me into next year. I would like to not repeat my mistakes, at least not the worst ones. I would like to seriously start pursuing my career in politics, possibly even get that job with HRC that I've been dreaming about for so long. I want to get way more involved with local LGBT organizations, and really want to help make a difference. January is a good start with two HRC dinners. I want to learn to be content with my situation, whether it be school, work, or home. I am sick of complaining and always wanting more, so I am going to do something about it. I want to start doing yoga and meditating again; I always feel more balanced. More tea instead of coffee, which I'm doing good with so far. Keep an updated book list constantly, and go through it, seriously. Fill up my shelves.

2011, please be fantastic.

As for other things, sorry it's been so hectic! I've been working a lot back at my old job, and recovering from the holiday season, the best friend is in town this week, and getting ready to go back to classes. But soon I can be back to posting every day hopefully! (:

Off to finish laundry and get some organizing done,
