#february resolutions

As usual, my New Year's resolutions fall apart. For me, they always have. Every year I tell myself that I'm going to permanently change something about my life, but I never seem to make it out of that stage of "telling myself to change," and unfortunately, I am very easy to disobey.

I've had the flu for about five days now, so I've had a lot of time to lie in bed and do nothing and think. Eventually, after passing through a lot of Valentine's Day FOMO and worry about schoolwork, my thoughts landed upon my resolutions and their failures, which I'd forgotten all about. I began to wonder whether I could start again. I'd need a new system, though.

I chose to start a Tumblr blog. Every day I'll post a couple of short updates about my goals, no matter how well I'm maintaining them. In theory, the illusion of a potential audience should keep me posting every day, and posting every day should keep my goals on my mind. In practice? Who knows! I guess I'll just have to see.

Since I'm still sick, I've decided to start with the easy resolutions that I can make some headway on while in bed. These are:

Write more

Don't drop below a B- in Math

Podcast Episode 10: Maneja

Episode Ten of the Plutonium Muffins podcast was chaos! Hopefully enjoyable chaos, I had just returned from a day at the Spring Knitting & Stitching Show exhibition and was very tired – please excuse me for this. I also had no internet while recording, so there was a bit of apologising for that…but I had fun, and you can too! I update you on my knitting and spinning projects, talk about events,…

So, I though I would do some resolutions for the coming month! I know February is gonna long but good, since I have lots of plans and actually this is my only "free" weekend of the month! Here we go:

Drink more water

Eat less meat, unless it's lean

Workout at least 4 times a week, preferably 5

Go to Hot Yoga 2 times a week

Read half an hour every night instead of being on the computer

Keep up with college work

People make New Years Resolutions, but that's just an excuse for people who are too lazy to try to improve their way of life. 

1. Don't be lazy and clean up dishes

2. Do more around the house, help out my mom

3. Be more thankful for family, talk to them more, spend time with them more, u never know whens the last time you'll see them. 

4. Stop being scared of not being enough. Of not being important to anyone. Cause I am important. 

Due to the recent and more than likely fairly unsuccessful exams. I am commencing upon 'February Resolutions'. 

This is through the idea that New Years Resolutions are generally quite unsucessful and that from January you have an idea of what the New Year is going to be like so you can make resolutions around that.

Mine February Resolutions are:

- Draw and Paint more (which is happening as I'm continuing to attend Art Society events)

- Try to attend aerobics. (I'm a member... so it should happen soon enough)

- Be in university and stay in university more often. (Cause I actually like working in the library)

- Get Camp America Stuff sorted out!

- Work harder at your degree, (procrastinate less).

Lets Go February!!!
