(no subject)
Long overdue, but organizing myself made me realize I'm farther along than I thought I was! Lots of the goals are progressing or finished. Feels so good, especially since I've been in such a nasty funk lately.
1. Catch up all my backlog at work by February and stay on top of it
Ok, so. I mostly did this and I’m counting it as DONE. I had some insane issues with reports and blah blah desk job stuff. But I’m doing my best to keep up, and as soon as my update is done I’m getting back to it!
4. Visit at least two Spanish speaking countries other than Spain
HALF DONE! I made it to Puerto Rico a few weeks ago (I was told this counts, haha). Beautiful island, pity I was sick as a dog the entiiire trip. But we made it to the beach everyday and took a great day trip to Old San Juan. Gosh it’s gorgeous. Reminded me of Spain and made my heart ache.
6. Commit to a volunteer program for six months (full or part-time)
I’m looking into some local shelters. One needs help for the homeless to put together resumes and cover letters- I could do that!
7. Quit my insurance job
Also, in the middle of looking. Man, there’s *really* nothing out there. Keep plugging…
9. Pay off both credit cards and attempt to absolve student loans
Haha, false. Not going well at all. Maybe this payday…
11. Keep a written journal weekly
I HAVE to start this. Life is annoyingly getting the way.
20. Quit smoking cigarettes
When I got sick I was doing better with this- barely smoked at all in PR. I’ve definitely cut down though. Good thing I have over two years to go, haha.
27. Contact Dan and forgive him
This is up in the air. The more time goes by, the more I’m not feeling this anymore. I’ve done a lot of self-reflection and have forgiven myself and him inwardly. I went to confession (Catholic process of asking for forgiveness) and that felt awesome. So, we’ll see.
49. See the following bands again:
Dropkick Murphy's
(I miss them while in Boston!! I just could afford it. And I couldn’t’ find anyone enthusiastically a go for going too. Maybe next year…)
Kings Of Leon
(My boyfriend got my tickets for April 19th! Getting ready!!)
53. Walk around my block after work as often as possible, no excuses when the temperature is over 60!
My friend and I have walked the beach a few times together. When it gets warmer, hopefully it will be more regular.
61. Make an effort to speak with Chris again
This one is DONE. I’ve tried multiple times to contact him with no go. Completion is out of my hands. Makes me sad, but who knows, maybe the outcome will change down the road.
76. Contact Hazel and stay in touch, possibly visit her in the Philippines
Hazel, my cousin, is coming here to Boston in May!! Very very excited.
95. Explore two new museums
In PR we went to the Don Q rum museum. It totally counts, shut up.
Luck to everyone else, keep this community alive!!
