So I realized that I wrote last time about getting towards a new years resolution but that's not exactly true... I'm turning 25 in August and while I'm satisfied with this quarter of my life I want the next quarter to start out even more banging so I've made some resolutions for myself to bring in 25 right.
1) Getting my weight down. I don't have a specific number but I just want to be in better shape at 25 than I ever was between the ages of 17-24. I don't want to get old and then worry about trying to work even harder to get my body back in shape. I'm young I'm going to use it.
2) Learning to cook. I don't mean boiling water (although I still don't have rice down without my rice cooker)... I mean I want to be able to make things from scratch. Healthy things that taste good and that I can make for dinner parties. I want to throw dinner parties with MY food.
3) Better with finances. I love to shop. If you've ever visited me at www.withlovefromdc.tumblr.com you know that I love a good pair of shoes (or dress or anything)... This year though I've decided that I want to buy a condo when I move to London instead of paying 3k/mo. for an apartment so that requires a deposit. I want to pay my own deposit so that of course means- save save save. That's right. Cutting down to 2 pairs of shoes a month and putting the rest away from my Isle of Dogs fund. Woot.
4) Stop being afraid of relationships. I can't describe why closeness makes my skin crawl but it's not normal and I don't want to be alone for the next quarter of my life. I make up excuses to reject guys (a: he has a gap b: haven't you talked to him a million times and you never noticed the gap? a: I have. but now that I know it's there I can't UNSEE it.)... this time around- I'm not rejecting good because it's not perfect. I'm going to stick with I can't ask for what I'm not giving and see how that treats me.
So that's it.... here's to a new era.
