Hey all,
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
Today is the first day of 2015! There's been quotes on Facebook saying, "Today is the first day of a new book. Write your own story" or something like that. Where did 2014 go? Fall quarter, I got about a C-average GPA. (I got 3 C's and 1 A). I'm an A-B student with a 3.-- GPA. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy that I passed my first quarter at a University, but still.
My New Year Resolutions?
- Study harder. Don't slack off, just because I thought it was "easy" and I thought I "knew" what I was doing. Clearly, I was wrong. If I need to study, then I need to set aside the time and study. To be the best that I know I can be.
- Lose weight. I know that everybody makes this every year, but I'm going to lose weight so I can fit into my jeans. I'm going to try and eat healthier, so I'm not eating junk food all the time.
- Be happy with myself. Don't worry or care about what other people think about me. Why should I care? I can't pay my bills with their opinions. If they don't have anything better to do with their time than to make fun of me/mock me/whatever, then it's not my problem. I will have the self-esteem to do my best and to do what I feel is right for myself.
- Be bolder. Not in the sense of doing illegal things, but to quit letting opportunities pass me by, because I'm too shy to speak up. If I see something that's beneficial to myself, then I'm going to take it.
- Be more involved in my Dorm. My CA throws different activities, and I've had to miss out on them (because of studying, shyness, etc.) and I won't this year. I'm going to become more involved and make more friends!
- Be a better friend. I'm going to try to be there for my friends if I haven't been there before. Yes, some friends can be annoying and all you want to do is to be left alone, but they're still your friend(s). Better to be there and suffer through it, than to not be there at all.
Well, I think that's it.
Enjoy your New Year!!
Laters,
