end goal two: loose a little weight. now, i not really one of those girls that obsesses about weight (anymore). with the introduction of more a-line dresses and vintage pieces (which are way more flattering than the fashions today) into my wardrobe, i'm happier with my body now than i've ever been. but i am looking to start having kids in the next couple of years, and it wouldn't hurt to be in better shape. that, and come summer when it's over one hundred degrees outside, tiny girls in their hot pants and bikinis make me crazy.
resolutions:
1. skate. i used to roller skate all. the. time. with college and grad school, i've stopped. but it really is the only real form of exercise i enjoy doing. this year, i will get over the fact that i look silly with wheels strapped to my feet and i will roller skate in the park for at least an hour twice a week. no, that is not a lot of exercise. but compared to the zero i do now, i think it will help.
2. eat a healthy breakfast everyday. with a two hour commute, it's not unusual for 'breakfast' to be a snack out of the vending machine at two in the afternoon when i walk by and remember i forgot to eat that day. this year, every weekday (cause weekends with hubby can, and should, include pancakes) i will eat a healthy breakfast. whole wheat something, or fruit and low fat yogurt, egg whites, whatever. i even have some plans on what to eat in the car for on-the-go mornings.
3. eat a healthy lunch. i got this lunch box last month on clearance for five bucks and it completely inspired me. i want to take it everywhere! and if i'm going to do that, i may as well fill it with yummy and nutritious things. i've already been collecting easy recipes that can be prepared the night before and i'm ready to take a healthy lunch with me to school each day! (bonus: this will probably help my save money goal, too, because i won't be eating out for lunch).
end goal three: be happier and less stressed bout every day life.
resolutions:
1. be more excited for everything! each year, i get really into halloween, thanksgiving, christmas, and easter. every other holiday pretty much gets ignored (yes, even valentine's). then i get really depressed through most of the summer as month after month of heat and 'lame' holidays fly by. this year, i want to decorate and do something special for every holiday (at least the ones worth being printed on a wall calender) and enjoy this summer more. it is my last summer break before i am a full time working girl and i don't want to waste it!
2. school work every night. this may seem like it would increase my stress, but alas, it will reduce it. i am a master procrastinator and by the end of the semester, projects and exams hit me like a ton of bricks! i only have class two days a week this coming semester, which gives me ample time to spend on classwork, even on days when nothing is due. that way, by the end of the term, i will be caught up, and won't have to live like a hermit the first two weeks in may.
