Yay! Being on a forum makes last year's so much easier to remember. Man, I really dropped the chain this year, last year I did so well!
For 2010:
- Re-learn how to ride a bike without being terrifiedUm, not really. I mean, I rode it to a place once, maybe twice, still terrified. I think it is because the bike is so old and broken.
- Continue fixing up my rusty ol' vintage bike so that it's awesomeYeah I didn't do anything aside from put on a flowery seat cover. But I did buy a bike helmet!
- Be the best girlfriend I possibly canI guess I have? I am still with the same guy, so.... win?
- Have some fantastic roadtrips and weekends awayI think we did this. We stayed in hotels three times so I guess that counts as an actual trip. One of those times we went there in a plane so it doesn't really count as a roadtrip.
- Do a lot of decorating and furniture/house restorations/awesomefyingHm, I guess I did. I painted a few things and went to Ikea and moved into a sweet old house that I adored because it was falling apart and everyone in it was unimaginably awesome. But then
The Shittest Thing In 2010 happened and the rest of us split up and Nick and I had to move to a house that I dislike.
- Have a nice 25th Birthday and an actual party where maybe people will comeOh hey, I did this! It was fun, I think. People actually came, which is amazing.
- Make better friends of the people I already know and loveI guess I didn't work very hard on this. I am a hermit at heart and I have turned down so many invitations.
- Spend less money on junk, and consequently pay off my credit card debt and try to get some form of savings togetherI didn't do this either because my laptops both died and I needed to take out a loan to buy a new computer. I have consolidated all my debt though and should have it paid off by 2013 at the latest.... eesh.
- Get another promotionI can't remember if I did or not. I think I did? Was that in 2010? I think so. I'm now Production Coordinator rather than Production Assistant/Office Bitch (even though I am still really Office Bitch) and I make 5k a year more. Woo!
This year I also sacked up and spent a bunch of money on doctors and specialists and tests and stupid diets to sort of my health and stomach problems once and for all, after suffering for ten years on and off. After many months I am now pretty excellent and only need to take pro-biotic capsules every day or so, and have Vitamin B injections every month. I also haven't had a cold or virus or anything since I have been healthy, when previously I would catch something new every few weeks.
So anyway. I don't really know what to do this year. Maybe...
- Keep my job, that would be great (I have been slacking off)
- Move out with Max to a sweet sweet new place
- Either sack up and fix my bike properly or save up for a new one
- Keep growing my hair even though it shits me constantly, I really want to see how it looks long
- Learn to sew better, maybe make some clothes
- Stop buying so much crap and learn how to buy food properly. Buy from the greengrocer rather than the supermarket.
- Learning how to make more than like, 5 dishes would be helpful too. Also take lunch to work more often.
- Walk and cycle more places instead of carring or bussing. (This will depend on where we move though.)
- Make my blog decent, try to blog several times a week
- Maintain my weight since I'm actually putting it on now that I'm healthy
- Save. Some. Money. (This will never happen.)
