2012
Its the time of year for new beginnings, and new ideas about how to live / behave though the next year. One of the things I want to do is write in my blog once a week for the year. Last year I did not make the cut, but this year could be different who knows. The second resolution I have is one that will possibly be even harder than consistently writing in this blog once a week. I am going to attempt to be more social as the year progresses. I have made a effort to make plans throughout the month of January already, and for me this is a huge undertaking. This is mostly hard because of the pattern of life I have allowed myself to be sucked into.

Everyone I know has a pattern of what a general week entails. For example I go to school, then at night go to yoga classes, and then study. My employed friends go to work, the gym, and on various nights out to dinner with friends. We are creatures of habit, and this year I really want to form new habits. To do this I even started my New Years Eve celebration differently than I have in a long time. I went to a party with a lot of people I did not know and danced the night away. It was fun, and I believe it started my year off right. I have even changed my exercise habits. I took a break from yoga for three weeks and just started back today.

I believe a little change is good on all levels whether its physical or emotional. Shaking it up and changing it up is going to be my thing for 2012. I have always welcomed change, and this year I really need some new experiences to keep me on my toes, and I know that can be good or bad, but I prefer the good to come my way. Besides If I have no real change I will not be able to write anything clever in my blog and unfortunately I just cannot abide by that!
