Merry Christmas!
Hello Bloggy World!
I don't know if anyone reads this anymore, but if you do, hello! Sorry for my long absence. Life got busy, busy, and then I got sick, and well, blogging just kind of fell by the wayside. But now it's finals time, and what is finals time good for but finding new and creative ways to procrastinate? I'm serious, if I look through my archives, each finals period brings a spurt of blogging creativity and productivity, and this year is no different.
Well, that's a lie. This year is a little different because I've had some weird mystery illness for the last three months, and I'm, shall we say, just barely muddling through. I've never set the bar so low for myself in my life, but hey, as long as I pass, I'm happy!
My goal for 2010 (wow! new decade!) is to be HEALTHY. I'm hoping I'll have some medical answers soon, but in the meantime, I've got some other goals that might make me feel better, or at least will be good for me! A friend and I plan to sign up for yoga classes in the new year, and I'm thinking of trying a mostly vegetarian diet. I already eat almost entirely vegetarian at home (mostly because meat is expensive, and usually takes longer to prepare than veggie dishes), but when I eat out (which happens more than it should), I tend to eat meat (which means that it's probably more fatty/salty/whatever than I would prepare for myself at home!).
Other goals include decluttering/organizing my things before I move again, hopefully doing some volunteer work (if I have energy on top of school - this will depend on my healthy goal!), and reading some good non-school books. I know these aren't very lofty goals, but I like to set ones I think I can actually achieve! My "reach" goal is to go visit London; I had a trip planned this fall that I had to cancel because I was sick, and I would really like to get there sometime before I start work. I miss my friends who live there so much, and I don't want to wait another FOUR years to see them!
Well, this is a pretty boring post, but I suppose it's a reflection of where I am - finals, sick so lacking much of a social life, and it's December (read: gray and depressing). But I'm confident 2010 will be MUCH MUCH MUCH better.
Ciao loves!
