2010-Me

Seems as though I've developed insomnia this holiday season, just can't fall asleep before 3am... definitely not a habit that I want to keep around when it's time to get back to the grind, but on the bright side, it will come in helpful for our trip to Sparkle-sparkle Hollywood and LA (!)

So, 2010 is here. Wow... 2010. Just a few nights ago some friends and I were talking about 1990 when it dawned on us that 1990 was *gasp* 20 years ago!! Never thought the day would come when I would be recalling memories from 20 years ago that still seem clear as day. Surreal.

This year is going to be a big one. A start (and an end?) of a decade, an end of school and a starting of a professional career, a potential new life in a new city; lots of changes and unknowns. I'm going to embrace them and make the most of them, this is the year.

Some people don't like to set New Years resolutions because they feel if you do, you won't stay true to them; I, on the other hand, like to lay out a few goals for myself... even if they fail (like my resolution last year to stop picking at my cuticles), I can still strive and attempt to improve myself for the better.

For 2010 I resolve to:

- Stop picking my cuticles (3rd times a charm... right?)

- Be kinder to those around me and strangers I encounter (the World can use more kindness)

- Get back to the physical fitness I had during the summer, including a regular yoga routine, and strive to eat healthier (although delicious, there's more to food than carbs).

- Invest myself fully & whole-heartedly in my relationship, studies and career.

- Seize the day.

May 2010 be a year of New Beginnings for us all; Namaste.
