New Years Resolutions!

2012 is going to bring about a better me! I have had a lot of changes the past few months and it really made me think of what I want from 2012. So here are my new years resolutions (better have them written down somewhere so I don't forget!)...

        *Goal 1: Be a better member of the church: I have been inactive off and on for a year now. I never thought it would happen to me. I never thought I would let my pride get in my way of church. I regret slipping away over something so stupid. Now I'm in a new ward and looking forward to a new start. I have been going fairly frequently the past couple months. I just really want to get back to where I was spiritually 3 years ago. My new goal is to never miss a week of church! (unless I'm so sick I'm dieing). I wont ever let anything come between me and my faith ever again!

          *Goal 2: Read the Book of Mormon: This will help me on my way to becoming a better member of the church. I miss reading the scriptures. When I was going through one of the hardest times ever, the Scriptures were the only thing that brought me peace. My goal is to read them for at least 30 minutes everyday.

          *Goal 3: Exercise and Weight loss. They typical new years resolution right?  It's an oldie but a goodie.

           *Goal 4: Cook my meals and only eat out once a week or less. I hate hate hate cooking for 1 person. I get frustrated trying to figure out what to cook for one person and not have tons of leftovers. I also didn't have any pots and pans at my apartment.  So I end up eating out. It's getting a little expensive though. I also got super cute dishes and pots and pans for Christmas. Now I have no excuses. I will have to learn how to cook!

            *Goal 5: Be a nicer person. I am a pretty sarcastic person and sometimes I don't think people pick up on my sarcasm. I think that I have unintentionally offended the people around me because they don't realize that I am just trying to make a joke. So my goal is to still be sarcastic, but to be more sensitive to those around me. Along with this I want make more of an effort with those I don't necessarily get along with. I would like to reach out to these people more and try to get along with them.

            * Goal 6: Meet new people. My best friend moved away in August (miss you Anita!) and since then I have been lonely. Don't get my wrong I have some amazing people in my life. Mandy and Derrick are 2 of my best friends and I love them to death. But I would like to make more friends. Can't have too many of those right? I have a hard time putting myself in new situations. So my goal is to be more outgoing and hopefully make more friends.

These are my  main goals for 2012 . I have a lot of other hopes for 2012 as well. Like being better at my job and finding a nice man to be in a relationship with. Unfortunatly I don't have a lot of  control over that ;). Defintly something I will be on the look out for though!

Happy 2012 everyone!
