A New Year, A New Start

Everyone loves New Years Day.

Maybe not everyone likes New Years Eve, or the stereotyped version; getting drunk out of your mind is not everybody's idea of a good time.  Or maybe you just enjoy sitting at home, in your pajamas, eating pizza and watching Korean dramas...  No?  Just me?  Okay then.

Anyway... pretty much everyone likes New Years DAY though.  WHY? 

Everyone likes the "clean slate."  Of course, not everyone will forget those embarrassing things you did last year.  Or the terrifying things, or the stupid things, and so on and so forth.  But we all feel... renewed on January 1st.  Because we can make THIS YEAR better than last year.

My resolutions for 2012:
  1. Lose weight!  I'm not setting a goal because with my thyroid disorder it's difficult for me to lose pounds, but the point is I want to lose some of it.  Any of it.
  2. More than lose weight, make healthy choices.  Whether they are physical (walk instead of taking the shuttle from up to campus, eat a banana instead of a pop tart for breakfast) or mental (call a sister instead of thinking about him) I want my choices to make me feel good.
  3. Less drama.  Don't make drama, don't encourage drama, don't get in the middle of drama!
  4. Be positive!
