So, we're over a week into 2012 - and probably the world won't really end on the 21st of December, but who knows? Anyway, this isn't a the world is going to end post so much as it's a generic New Year's resolutions and stuff post.
New Year's resolutions - don't have many. The typical one, starting tomorrow (I was on vacation on the first and wholly refuse to start dieting while on vacation - and while I can follow a diet on the weekend, starting one just seems wrong somehow.), start eating better, start exercising regularly, be bikini ready by the summer (this is going to be extremely difficult, because I need to loose almost 15 pounds and turn my remaining belly flub into toned muscle in a few months) and look amazing for my sister's wedding; Learn enough Slovak that I can talk to mi novio's parents without a translator; get another novel published; write every day.
It doesn't really seem like that much to do, typed out neatly in a list like that, but I don't have any illusions that any of this is going to be easy. A lot of people manage. People who, even if they're really amazing, cool people, you just want to hate because they're so together and seem to manage to work full time, follow a tone of other hobbies/dreams/ ambitions and look amazing while doing so, but people none the less. I'd like to be one of those people, I think. It would probably suck to have everyone be jealous of you and secretly hating you, but I think it would be worth it, really.
I think mainly, I just need lists. Or something to help me concentrate. Ritalin? I don't know.
I don't much feel like ending this with some inspirational crap about how this year will be different, how I'll force myself to focus on what matters, etc, because, frankly, I don't know that I will. But I will say that 2011 has been absolutely amazing, without a doubt, the most interesting year of my life so far and certainly the one in which I was most proactive. If I could boil this all down to one resolution, it would be to make 2012 even better.
