Bring it, 2008
At the risk of sounding emo, 2007 really sucked, and I’m really ready for the new year. I’ve been fortunate to learn a lot of things about myself in this last year, than I’ve not been able to get in twenty-nine years of my life. That’s been the most positive thing derived from 2007 - getting to know Jenn.
2008’s going to bring lots of good things my way. I’m not going to sit around and wait for the good to always come to me; I’m going to go out and get it. I’ve been waiting 30 years of my life. I’m sick of waiting. I’m going to keep plugging away at my job, learn new things, and work toward becoming a permanent employee of Symantec. The pounds are going to come off this year. The new year is bringing a renewed membership to Curves, where many pounds will be shed, muscles will be rediscovered, and many a curse words will fly because of that one last squat that’s making my entire body hate me. Biggest Loser Cookbook will become my new best friend. Money will be saved with the help of a roommate and no car payment. New friendships will be discovered, some spring cleaning will take place in the Who’s Who in Jenn’s Life, hopefully some relationships will get closer, a trip to visit family in Canada is in order, perhaps I’ll meet a lovely boy to spend next Christmas with, and a overall simplification of my life, is in the Plan-o-’08. I want to actively do more good for people, be it volunteering, cooking some chili for a homeless guy I see on a daily basis, *something*. I want to get some excitement back in my life. The childlike excitement, I mean. It’s been years. That stuff can only happen based on experience, and activity. Activity. That’s the key. Do, do, do.
And now? Take advantage of probably the last biggest meal I’ll ever have. Mmm. Pig.
