2013..

New Year's Resolutions
  1. I will finish 52 books in 2013.
    • These books are a must-but they are not included in the 100: The Words, The Staff of Moses, Iman ve Kufur Muvazeneleri, and Hanimlar Rehberi from the Risale-i Nur Collection by Bediuzzaman Said Nursi.
  2. I will finish writing a fiction book of my own. 
  3. I will determine my future job, and college choices.
  4. I will host a Spanish exchange student. 
  5. I will learn to play the ukulele. 
  6. I will stop saying "if only..."
    • Stop regretting things you did in the past. The past is the past. End of story.  
  7. I will stop getting bitter when things don't go as I planned, and stop throwing conniption fits.
  8. I will stop mistrusting and disliking people. I will start being an amiable person. 
  9. I will find a new hobby. 
  10. I will establish a pen pal relationship.
  11. I will get a job.
    • Doesn't need to last long, I just want the experience. 
  12. I will travel to at least 12 places out of my current state, VA. 
I used to hate new year's resolutions because why not just start anytime you felt like you needed to change something in your life? However, it is far more organized to start with a universal beginning and end with a universal ending; and although I am usually against the popular trends, this one helps with my OCD.
