Resolved
My last blog post apparently cursed my new relationship, so here’s hoping that the curse of 2011 will hold out for a few more hours, and as I write this post, hopefully Murphy’s Law won’t decide to fuck me over in the next 10 hours or so.
In 2012, I resolve to work even harder than I did in 2011. To prove myself in my career. To get everything I can out of this amazing opportunity that I’ve been afforded. To grow as a person and as a professional in my career.
I resolve to use my spare time for the things I love: writing, reading, finding new music, sitting in coffee shops, cooking good meals. Less TV, more intelligent conversations. I will finish up and edit my book. I will start writing a new one. I will keep a journal.
I will do another mini triathlon, and I will train for it this time. Maybe I’ll even run a 5k. Either way, I will drag my ass to the gym that I pay for, on a semi-regular basis, and kick my own ass on the treadmill.
I resolve to see more of my neighbourhood. To actually take time to explore the beautiful area I live in. This will probably have to wait until the spring.
And keep taking chances. Sometimes it doesn’t work out, but when it does, it’s worth it.
Here’s to 2012.

Here’s to 2012, indeed. I will be right there alongside you (metaphorically), with each of these promises to yourself. After this year, it can only go up. Knock on wood.
I love you.

I’m sorry the relationship didn’t work out, but I’m glad to hear about the new apartment. Anyway, it’s a new year–plenty of time to find someone new.
My boyfriend randomly messaged me last week when I was still at my parents’, asking if I was interested in training for the Honolulu marathon! I told him I’d like to run more–always a good New Year’s resolution–but NOT a marathon. Maybe, with lots and lots of training, I’d consider doing a half marathon. I don’t know how “mini” a mini triathlon is, but it sounds like a good goal :)
Best wishes for the new year!
