New Years Resolutions.

Yes, I know these are infamous for not being followed through with. Yes, every year I say "Oh no I think I can really do it!" and forget them within a month. But I wanted to get this down, in writing, in hopes that maybe they'll work out at least a little! I'm not aiming for achieving goals, but really just kind of redirecting my life in a new direction.

1) CUT DOWN ON THE DRINKING! I honestly just don't even enjoy being ridiculously drunk anymore. And I definitely do not enjoy the hangovers that have become commonplace with every night out. So aside from wine, and casual cocktails, I want to cut back on this, at least until my birthday on April 14th.

2) BECOME HEALTHIER! I want to join the Y and start going with Kelly/Lauryn to do the elliptical. I know for a fact that if I can just get myself on a regular track of going, then it will be easy for me to stay motivated and lose weight quickly and just feel better overall.

3) GET A JOB! Lord knows I've been trying this one for the last year, and hours and hours of job applications have turned up nothing. However, with the fact that I only have classes two days a week this semester, along with me likely being in Bloomington this summer, you would think my availability would be too good to pass up. I'm dying for some financial independence!

4) GET THE GRAD SCHOOL THING FIGURED OUT! I'm almost pretty sure I want to go directly into grad school once I graduate, and this year I need to really focus on looking at schools, applying, taking the GMAT, and getting all my other ducks in a row for this to work out.

I've also got a few others that are a BIT more personal that I'll just keep to myself, but I think these four are more likely to happen with a hard copy reminder for some motivation. Does anyone else have anything big they're aiming for this year?
