New Year's Resolutions

I said I wouldn't make any New Year's resolutions... and technically I'm not. Let's just say, I try to live without regrets and picking one day out of the year to hold yourself accountable for 12 months of action (or inaction) just seems like a recipe for failure. There are certainly things that I want to happen to me over the next year, like making more money, getting a new job or finding the love of my life. But let's be honest here, I can't control any of those things. Heck, as a young working woman there are only a few things that I can control. So no huge resolutions, but I will list some things I will WORK AT and FOR:

1. Losing Weight — I've got a set goal in mind (i.e. the Natural eXclusive) But my goal is to be essentially be healthier, eat healthier and when I do splurge on McDonald's or Coldstone to at least work my ass off the next day.
2. Water — This sort of fits in with #1 on the list. Anyone who knows me, knows that I hate water. I hate the taste of water and it's been a growing experience for me to find just the type of water I like. On my list of favs, is Fiji (too expensive, but damn good), Aquafina (can never go wrong) and Dasani (whenever I can't afford Fiji or can't find Aquafina on sale). I've significantly cut back on my pop drinkage over the last year, now I'll work on increasing my water intake.
3. Save Money.
4. Read more — I used to be a pretty avid reader. How avid, you ask? I remember being a 5th grader and tackling Jane Eyre and in the 11th grade, I had read Dante's Divine Comedy twice just for recreational purposes. Why that film hasn't been made a movie, I don't know. In any case, ever since my senior year of high school I just haven't found the time. Now with nothing to occupy my time but work, I will attempt to pick up a few books.... which brings me too....

Books I Plan to read before the end of 2011 (still not a resolution):

1. The Southern Vampire Mysteries.... I like the show, might as well start reading the book.
2. The Vampire Diaries.... see #1.
3. Anything by Jane Austen
4. Whatever is on my "to read" Goodreads list.
