Resolutions suck.

I was suppose to have this post ready to go today.
However, I enjoyed New Years Eve a little too much.
I was so happy to be able to have the same New Year kiss for the third year in a row.
He also was nice enough to pick me up & drive me to my parents so I didn’t have to wake them.
I wasn’t happy going into the night but, I had so much fun. Hello 2013!


I typically say my new years resolution is to have no resolutions.

If I was to make resolutions they’d be similar to most people’s unrealistic resolutions;
Work out 6 times a week
Lose 16.4 pounds
Become a cleaning freak
Read 3 books a month
Run a marathon and finish first
Shop only when I absolutely need something
Only drink 1 beer a week
Volunteer every weekend
Attend church

I don’t do resolutions. I’ve never even toyed with the “new year, new me” idea..
But, maybe 2013 is a good time to start with some realistic improvements.
I’m not making resolutions. I’m making changes. Setting goals.

 

Get organized.
No, I don’t plan on developing new awesome ways to organize all the crap that I own. But, I would like to be able to get more organized so that I can be less stressed.

Blog more.
I’ve become an awesome slacker when it comes to my blog. Sometimes I feel so pressured to write an interesting post instead of some random post about a whole lot of nothing. I’m a perfectionist so I either want to do something as perfect as possible or I just get too stressed over it and just put it off. I want to truly get back to blogging for myself. I started blogging because I love writing. I want to blog more but, I don’t want to feel like blogging is a job.

Be a better girlfriend.
My relationship is wonderful. I know that I will marry this man. But, I know sometimes I can be hard to handle. I get stressed and I can be a complete brat. Although even at my all time worst I’m not even close to as crazy and awful as his ex.. I never want him to feel miserable or unhappy in our relationship like his past relationship. I want to surprise him more, kiss him more, and really just enjoy our relationship.

Diet.
Okay. So maybe not really diet.. but, I need to figure out a way to eat healthier. I eat far too much junk and although I don’t gain weight from it all.. I still feel guilty.

Be easier on myself.
I have the hardest time with this.

Act my age.
Sometimes I feel that I’m such an old lady. I don’t go out much. I’m so worried about work and school. I need to start enjoying myself while I’m still young. I brought in 2013 like someone my age would. Wasn’t that bad.

 

I have a really good feeling about this year.
I think I have a lot to look forward to.

  2. I like your "resolutions" because they're realistic. That's where people screw up. Resolutions are temporary. Changes are what should be made.

You can’t blog with us!

I’m not digging all of these big shot bloggers trying to make these rules for blogging. I have read posts about how not everyone should have a blog. If you’re not a big shot blogger, like myself.. this post is for you. If you are a big shot blogger, this post is also for you.. but, none of you will read this. These are just some of the rules that I don’t follow.. Your blog will be judged by it’s cover. Have a perfect layout. If spending $100 to have some make a layout for my blog means you’ll read my blog and you’ll follow me.. then I don’t give a damn if you’re not following me. Respond to all comments left on your blog. It is important to respond to comments.. however, I do understand why people can’t always respond. Personally.. if you ask me something I most likely will respond. A lot of the time I get comments that pretty much all I can say is “Thank you!” to.. I mean.. I’ll absolutely always respond if you e-mail me.. or even if you comment on instagram.. I respond almost inst...

Friday’s Letters!!!!

Dear Bret Michaels, Once I had a film class. It was so badass and made me wish I was an actress. I actually love being in front of the camera acting.. ANYWAYS.. This was the closest I’ve been to you.. when I was on a fake Rock Of Love.. with a fake Bret Michaels.. But, I’ll be seeing you live this Saturday!!! Dear Poison and Def Leppard, See you on Saturday!!!.. I’m pretty damn nervous to party with a bunch of people older than my mom. But, thank you for giving me an excuse to have extra big hair and dress like I belong in the 80’s.. I’ll look better than all these old chicks that still live in the 80’s.. Just sayin’.. Dear Friday’s Letters, You always make me so happy to write! I love that this link up always gets me so much positive feedback! It always makes my Friday so much better!.. I work Friday nights and Saturday mornings.. so Friday isn’t always as awesome to me as it is to everyone else. Dear Ashley from Adventures of Newlyweds, The first time I ever linked up I mention...
