New things

Happy New Year! 2012 brings new things. I know a lot of people who were happy to see 2011 go, but for me, 2012 has a lot to live up to.

I don't like to make resolutions. Resolutions are too easy to give up. I like to make goals. So for 2012 here are my goals:

Pixie Dusted Proposals ~ I want to stay more on top of the old blog. I know it was supposed to get updated. This fell through. I decided that I would learn how to do it myself. It's going to take longer, but I'm not going to let the blog just sit there. Especially since it gets a lot of views even when I don't post in it. So look for some news coming about the blog next week!

Get In Shape~ By the Summer of 2012 I want to be in shape. I don't want to lose weight (though it would be good), I just want to feel more healthier. I want to simply be in good shape.

Learn to drive manual ~ I HATE manual cars. However, Dave has a manual car. I should probably learn how to drive one. You never know what can happen. So by April I want to know how to drive a manual car.

Wedding Stuff ~ I have THREE! Count 'em 3! Weddings this year! This makes it easy to forget about my own wedding! By the end of this week I want to have a date set. By the end of February I want to have most of my vendors in the works. By the end of the summer I want the entire wedding to planned out for the most part.

New Job ~ By the end of March I want to be head first on a roll to a new job. If it's with Disney, great! If it's not, then I just wasn't meant to work for this company. I have a ton of skills that are not being used here. Also, if I don't get the chance to interview, how does anyone know that I am qualified or not? A piece of paper is only a snapshot of myself. I have drive and commitment to my work. I want to produce good work, that's just the kind of person I am. So if this company doesn't want me, then it wasn't meant to be. So I am looking everywhere for a job that is fully Lauren.

Of course, there will be plenty of more goals that come along with the months coming. These are just my starters. I've already started on most of them!

I hope everyone's year is off to a wonderful start!
