It's late, but happy new year LJ-gumi!
It's a new year, so it's time to give this LJ thing another try.
I've already missed wishing quite a few people happy birthdays already, but I'm just gonna have to confess that's nothing new with me anymore. Resolutions this year? ...Not many. I'm trying to trick myself this year by NOT calling them resolutions. Instead, I just have some vague goals. They are as follows!
-Read more. Like, at least a book or two a month, yeah?
-Cook more. I said I was gonna try cooking once a week when I moved home. So far I do it about twice a month. Usually because I'm asked.
-Draw/complete more prints. I haven't finished anything sale-worthy in a long time now. Needs to change.
-Rekindle kindness and integrity. I used to be what I'd consider a very patient, understanding, eager-to-please person who wouldn't take "it's too much trouble" for an answer. I liked myself better a decade ago than I do now and I can totally be that person again. I just need to work at it until my body and mind remembers on their own again.
-Exercise. I have the gym membership, so just do it, ya bum. You were doing so well before midterms last semester. *sigh*
More goals keep popping into my head as the weeks pass, but those are the major ones. To be honest, the first one is the only one I've dared call a "resolution", maybe just to see if my theory is correct or not. So far I haven't picked up that book I started last weekend, so...we'll see.
How's everyone else? Man, maybe I should open myself up to drabble challenges again. I had fun doing my last batch, but not many people asked for anything. Ah well. *thinks about it*
