Happy New Year

I've completely neglected this blog for quite a while now, I'm very sorry! Any hoo. It's a little late, but I'm going to share my New Year's Resolutions with you. It's doubtful I'll keep them all, all year long but I've been doing quite well for the last 13 days =).

1)Work out. (I've been doing it and it feels WONDERFUL!)
2)Get a job (yeah...this one's still in the works)
3)Save at least $2,000 (y'all know why from the last post)
4)Get an A in French class (I signed up for a French class at the local junior college. Step one is signing up right? So I'm well on my way)
5)Find new authors. (I'm always looking for new books, but I have a bad habit of just re-reading all my old favorites instead of pushing myself to find new favorites. If you have any suggestions, please leave them in the comments!)

I also have a bucket list for 2014

1)Have a mystery party (It's kind of like those boxed games, where you all sit down to dinner and solve the crime...but better. My mum is gonna write the plot so that I can be involved. We're gonna do it for my 18th birthday. Which, by the way is coming way to fast!)
2)Go dancing. (There's a place in Sacramento called Mid-Town Stomp, but I'll have to find some people to go with me.)
3)Spend a day in SanFrancisco with friends. (Ride the cable cars, go to China Town. All the stupid tourist-y stuff. Maybe go swing dancing)
4)Go to the beach at least once. (I love the beach, but don't go very often. People assume that because I live in California I must live at the beach. News flash. I go to the beach twice a year, if I'm lucky.)
5)Go on a weekend trip with friends. (We've started planning it out. It should be fun.)
6)Make at least one new friend (I've never been very good at making friends)
7)Learn to play the ukulele. (I've started learning the chords)

So that's it! No idea if I'll actually stick with them this year, but I might. And at least it's starting the year off right.
