resolutions.
It's nearly halfway through the year, but I think these resolutions are far from overdue. Between random Facebook status updates and borderline spammy tweets, I figure I should start writing journal entries on a semi-regular basis again, at least, as opposed to once every two months or so, like I did last year. I actually scrolled down my recent entries, and I found May 2011 in less than 10 posts from April 2012. Eep.
1. Post on journal regularly.
2. Enjoy more.
I look back, and around this time last year, I was finally in a good place after months of anxiety and emotional turbulence, was starting to make plans after a notable standstill, and I was praying for courage and confidence. Life's a lot less rockier in 2012, thankfully. I've finally found a bit of footing, and I'm definitely better than I was last year. I've come to terms with a lot of things, and I've discovered (and rediscovered) a lot about myself.
Having re-embraced my inner geek with a delightful vengeance (was it ever a secret, though?), I am now enjoying my foray into YA/fantasy and movies. Oh, my movies. I'll make a separate post about my recent reconciliation with geekhood, but yeah. I've been reading a whole lot, and I just saw The Avengers last night and I have all sorts of fangirly squeeage.
I've also got most of my badass armor back on, and it's such a relief to be able to approach things with the same headstrong, optimistic outlook that I used to have. Mostly. There are still chinks in the armor, but I'm working on them. I'm just glad to know that I could start taking on whatever life dishes out one day at a time. I'm not even frazzled by the idea that I'm going to be jobless by Monday, since I sent in my resignation letter last week. I'm looking at this one job, though, so let's see how that works out. I have enough money to last me three, four weeks, so I'm just chillin. Might as well take advantage of my upcoming bit of free time to read and do stuff around the house.
Looks like my current motto 'one stress-free day at a time' is working its magic. :)
