NewYears Resolutions

(In no particular order)

• Be early for work | I snooze my alarm clock at least 3x, making me rush & gun it to work, just making it exactly in time or a couple minutes late. Sorry boss.
• Meet someone special | It’s so hard meeting people nowadays, especially if you are out of school & work with mostly females and unavailable guys (the only males at work are older &/or married Docs & baby daddies >.<). Even more, meeting someone who is at the same place in their lives as I am, because I’ve heard too many times that I deserve someone better. Hopefully mister prince charming will find me this year, so I can settle down & retire from my single lady-ness HAHA. (Take your time though mister, we have ~360 days ahead lol)
• Work out | I’ve been slacking, & I know one day this laziness is gonna catch up to me & my body. So I have brand new running shoes (Thanks Bubs!!<3) & some motivation to start toning up and being active. Time for improvement & to be happy with myself. So gotta up the sexy bod & boost my confidence & maybe even catch some eyes along the way! HA! ;b
• Become a vampire | Not literally of course lol. I need to learn to transition working noc shift for work. In approximately 6 weeks, I will be kicked off day shift & moved to nights. So gotta bust out the blackout curtains, melatonin pills, cups of coffee / caffeine, & 20 alarm clocks, & see how all this will go. Hopefully I can continue to have all this fun, be a functioning human during days off, and adjust smoothly to this major body clock change. Along with this adjustment, I want to..
• Not lose touch with friends&family | I do not wanna waste my days off sleeping and being tired. I’m going to try get off my lazy ass & continue to make plans to spend time with my friends & family. I’ve been lagging to get ready almost every day. By the time I leave the house, the day is already half over. I wanna make the most of my free time, which means spending it w/ my faves. So @resipieces, @leahhbeah, @coolasaiz, @cmariec, @guamsowndaryl, & all you w/o tumblr, you will be hearing from me & seeing me around no less, if not more! (: In addition, I need to call home more often than I’ve been doing. I used to talk to my mom everyday, if not twice a day. Now I barely talk to her, sometimes just every other week to every 2 weeks. I love my family back home and miss them terribly. So from now on, I’m calling home every chance I get. Especially to my Mommy, I’m sorry for not calling like before. I’m disappointed in myself for letting it come to this point. You’ll be hearing from me, just like old times. <3
• Add & cross off more from my Bucket List | Before I got sick for 1 month &  1/2 with what my doc said was quite possibly pneumonia (ya, i know. damnn..) I was on a roll with my adventures, discoveries & travels. I’m gonna get back to that gung-ho mood, find cool new places, stuff my face with new, delicious foods, thrill myself with new crazy activities, & jet set to the ends of the world & back. I’m at my prime, so I MUST & SHOULD live the good life. It’s the time to be selfish & spend my money on the things I’ve always wanted & things I’ve always wanted to do. So lets goooo…
• Add more to my savings | As I go out on my adventures and sprees, I will be mindful of my future as well. It’s a balancing act between what I want right now and in the long term. So I will be responsible and reasonable with my money. I’m my worst enemy, so I got to fight that constant urge for a new wardrobe, closet full of shoes, & random unnecessary shit I find myself wasting my pennies on. So from now on, gotta put at least 30% into my savings every paycheck. It’s gonna be tough.. but, I can do it. I hope. For my future’s sake.
• DO BETTER & BE BETTER | This can best be explained by Hilary Swank’s speech in NYE: “Before we pop the champagne and celebrate the new year, (we are reminded) to stop and reflect on the year that has gone by. To remember both our triumphs and our missteps - our promises made, and broken. The times we opened ourselves up to great adventures - or closed ourselves down, for fear of getting hurt. Because that’s what New Year’s is all about: getting another chance. A chance to forgive, to do better, to do more, to give more, to love more. And stop worrying about ‘what if’ and start embracing what would be.”
