  • Resolutions

    -Drop 30ish pounds by the end of August.

    Last time I weighed myself at mom's during christmas, I was up to 185. When BF and I first started dating in 2009, I weighed 155 give or take. I'd love to get back down to that weight (the smallest I've ever been) and maybe even drop a bit more, though I'd be perfectly okay with losing inches more than pounds.

    -Meet new people/make friends

    We have a habit of staying in our apartment and not venturing out much. This is ridiculous once you really consider it. We've been living here almost a year now and really haven't explored a whole lot. I've made a couple friends through work, but we both want friends that don't rely on talking about work to get through conversations. There's  anime and a sci-fi/fantasy clubs in the area that we're thinking about joining, since we're both into those things. Maybe that will help!

    -Get out of my comfort zone, do something I'd typically not be comfortable doing because of my random/stupid insecurities.

    I'm horrible about not wanting to do something that I've never done before. Or that I perceive as me being bad at, even if I've never done it, or something that will make me look "dumb". BF and his friends like going to raves/clubs/etc and dancing. "dancing" since it's ravey dancing and not like, club club dancing, but none the less... I went to ONE rave and was so out of my comfort zone (loud noises! flashy lights! tons of bass! people I don't know!) that I basically just sat in a corner and watched the whole night. I'd love to be able to get out of my head long enough to enjoy myself at something like this. It looks fun! There's glowsticks! And his friend that throws the parties/makes the playlists and I have about the same taste in music. Only difference is that his versions are faster/have a ton more bass.

    -Stop biting my nails!

    ....this has been on my list since I was probably 10 years old, haha.

  • Suggestion that will help with some of this: make a calendar, which you have to check off completion of these things every day. I have heard a ton of times, and found it personally true, "you can break or make a habit in 21 days." If you make a calendar and consistently work on these things for 21 days you'll get better at them. No skips though. No cheats. 21 days straight. hugs. Sounds like great resolutions, btw.

  • The last two are resolutions that I should work on too...sigh.  So hard though!  Good luck!
