Goals for the 2015

Well 2014 was quite a year, but as 2015 is my last year as an undergrad, I have a couple of things I want to accomplish before I graduate and enter the real world.

1// Volunteer 100 hours: I plan on volunteering a total of 100 hours of the next year with my sorority, my family and on my own. I want to start giving back to communities that have given me so much.

2// Record daily what I'm thankful for: When I'm stressed out I can easily forget how much I actually have. This next year is going to be full of last moments and big changes, and recording my blessings will help keep everything in perspective. I plan on buying a small yearly calendar just for this.

3// Create a healthy, maintainable lifestyle: As I enter actual adulthood, I want to start off with healthy habits such as a weekly workout schedule and healthy eating habits. I want to tone up and maintain a goal body weight. This isn't about significant weight loss, but rather creating a healthy environment for my body. Stay tuned for my progress reports!

4// Create a personal to-do system: Once again, being successful in adulthood I really need a personal to-do system. For work and my personal life this will be critical. I'll be sure to have a post on creating your own system.

5//Budget and save better: I have budgets, and I try to save but I'm honestly really bad at it. Instead of spreading purchases out, I buy things in big chunks and then wait for weeks to be able to again. I am going to create an Excel spreadsheet, and stick to it for the next 6 months, then reevaluate. There will be a post on that too.

6// Take and print more pictures: Pictures are worth a thousand words, and there are some moments I wish I would have documented, or not deleted because I didn't like the way I looked. When I'm 40 I want to be able to look back at pictures and realize how much I lived.

7// Write more letters and thank you notes: There is something about the written word that I love. I want to write more cards to my friends, and thank you notes to people who deserve it.

8// Work on my writing and graphic design skills: I want to write more articles, and start really learning how to do graphic design. If that means paying for a service or signing up for classes, I'm ready to commit to learning.
