It's a new year, y'all

I know making new years resolutions are silly, and they don't even last long.. But IDGAF. I'm making one because this year is all about ME. Bettering myself as a person, continuing on the path to self-actualization, becoming more in tune with my body, etc, etc.. So without further ado, here is my 2015 New Years Resolutions!

Main Improvements, AKA the "MUST DO'S"

• Reduce Debt: I have a huge pile of debt that's basically ruining my life. It's one of the main causes of stress in my life. This new year, I am going to stay committed to getting rid of a good chunk of this debt.
• Reach Goal Weight: When I first moved back to San Antonio, I changed my lifestyle drastically. I stuck to it for quite a while, but over the last several months I've kinda stopped. It's time for me to get back on track. Having a healthy lifestyle that's totally manageable is definitely going to help me become a better me.
• Building Some Abs: (I already know I'm not capable of developing an actual six-pack, but I'm determined to at least have some definition in my belly by the end of the year!!!)

Art and Creativity, letting out the true artist in me

• Blog More: So what if like, 3 people read my blog a day,  blogging has become pretty therapeutic for me and it's a nice way to go back and reflect on the things I've done, one day at a time. This year, I'm gonna step up my blogging game.
• Redecorate My Bedroom: It's already beautiful at the moment, but my life mantra is "everything is a work in progress" so I'm going to slowly redecorate and basically go all feng shui in my room.
• Start/Finish More Paintings: I love my easel and I love my new personalized smock, so why haven't I been creating art? New year, new projects! I can already feel the creative juices flowing!
• Start Journaling: I bought a cute little journal online the other day, now I just need it to hurry up and get here so I can start it! By the end of the year, it's going to be completely filled out!

Adventure, AKA time to explore more

• Read 5 New Books: I was on a roll for a few months last year reading books, but suddenly I was "too busy". So this year I am going to read at least 5 new books. I already know I've got a stack of at least 15 unread books to choose from.
• Go To Festivals: ACL and SXSW are an absolute must!! But I did a little research and found a few more that I'd love to go too as well. Austin Psych Fest presents Levitation, Free Press Summer Fest, Red Gorilla Music Fest, and Rockport Festival of Wine and Food. If I could make it to at least 2 of these, I will feel accomplished by the end of the year. Time to start saving up!

Well, there ya have it. My very long, slightly detailed New Years Resolution list. I am so  happy that I can post it on my blog to keep myself accountable for actually sticking with it! 2015 is going to be an amazing year for me, I can feel it! Thanks in advanced to my main bitches for being my support system to help me reach my goals, xoxo.

Another morning, another good mood. Life is seriously so wonderful. I can't help but think that karma might have something to say about that soon... History always repeats itself right? It has happened to me more times than I can count. I'll be really happy, and life will be working out just fine and then BAM Lady Karma swoops in and destroys everything in one swift move. Maybe it's my pessimistic attitude or maybe I'm just being paranoid.. Idk.. I just hope that things stay good. Not great, just good. Because I enjoy being happy.

Oh wow. Obviously to the readers of this blog, there was not a 2 hour span of time that passed from that last sentence to this one. But that happened. I may or may not be at work... LULZ what am I saying.. I'm always at work!! I very rarely like blogging from my phone because my autocorrect has a mind of its own.

Anyways. I had a point to where I was going with the first portion of this post, but alas, I cannot remember. I just can't dang diddily do dang do damn diddily darn do it. (Flanders). So I'm just gonna go off on a quick tangent/rant/idk/venting sesh. I know I've already blogged about how irritating it is when people assume I'm dumb.. But it kind of has an upside/silver lining. People think I'm dumb, so they think that I don't know that they're talking about me... Like, I'm just zoned out working on stuff on my computer. But hey. You're body gestures say a lot more than you think. Oh, and your little whispers? Yea I have hawk ears. (not sure if that's actually a thing, but whatever) I may not be able to hear every single word that people say, but I'm smart enough to put 2 & 2 together. I'm basically PMSing really hard right now and the littlest things are bothering me. I should punch something, but I won't.

Whatev

Idgaf if I'm blogging too much today.. There are a lot of things happening in my head and in my life. GET OVER IT.

Anyways, I just wanted to mention how absolutely sweet it is when a man is talking about his child and you can hear the love in his voice. It just melts my cold heart every time. That is all. See guys, I can feel human emotions sometimes........

Blogging spreeeee

My life seriously has been so busy that I neglected my blog. And for that, I apologize. JK sorry not sorry. But really tho. My life has been busy and weird and awesome lately. I just need to remember to instantly blog when something cool happens so I don't forget. Like, for instance, today. I'm wearing a crazy bright colorful flowy top and its super adorbs. But the prominent color is orange. Personally, I'm not a fan of the color orange. But this shirt was $4.50 and free shipping so whatevs. Well anywho. One of my co-workers mentioned how nice this color looks on me. Like, woah guys. I was not expecting a compliment like that. Made me pretty dang happy. And lookie!! I remembered to blog it because it happened like, maybe 30 minutes ago.

Time for a change

My blog is about to get a heavy duty face lift. Out with the old, in with the new. <3

Last week.

Last week was such an off week. So many weird feelings and stuff.. I can't even begin to get into the silly emotional side of it, but just know that I'm over it and life is back to normal. Smooth sailing from here on out.
This week is much better. Everyone in my life is happy, which makes me happy. Everything is unicorns & rainbows now. Hurray life!!

Oh hai.

I just wanted to see how this would work.
So here it is.
OK, bye.
