New Years Resolutions

We all have them... here are mine:

1. Lose 50 pounds. Preferably by the time Jess gets married (August 1st... but who's keeping track? ha.)
In order to make this happen I'm going to continue with WW. Before I came home for winter break I had lost 9 lbs but since my return my goals have really taken a nose dive. That's ok, though. As long as I'm ready to be back at it as soon as I get back to Athens.

2. Work out 4-5 times per week. This will begin happening as soon as I get back from D.C. I think to start off I'm going to get a personal trainer so I can get some ideas on how to get this weight loss thing going. It's important for me to be well and to know that I will live a long life... Without exercising that won't be possible.

3. Open my brain (and heart I guess) to the idea of actually dating someone in GA. I've kind of cut off all possibilities that it would happen because thus far I have zero desire to stay in GA past graduation in 18 months (again... who's counting? ME!) Hopefully once I open myself to the possibility some tall funny guy will just find his way to me! haha.

4. Start a more comprehensive approach to school. While I did very well my first semester in grad school, it really would be beneficial for me to start taking better notes and to start preparing for ::gulp:: Comps. Not in any formal way... but to just realize that they will inevitably be coming some time around the corner so it would be better to prepare a little along the way instead of killing yourself over it for the month beforehand.

That's all I think... We'll see how all of this goes.
